Barron Trump’s new drink, plus Diddy and Daddy. Here’s what to know
It was a busy week for South Florida celebrities and pop culture: Barron Trump is launching a yerba mate drink brand, Trick Daddy had his mic shut off at an Orlando sorority event and Diddy’s lawyers are pushing to overturn his conviction.
Here are key takeaways:
• Barron Trump’s new venture: President Donald Trump’s youngest son, 20, is a director of Sollos, a Palm Beach-based yerba mate beverage line expected to launch in May with a Pineapple + Coconut flavor.
• Trick Daddy’s show shut down: The Liberty City rapper’s mic was cut at the 73rd South Atlantic Regional Conference for Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority in Orlando after he ignored repeated warnings to keep the show PG-13. AKA Regional Director Tiffany Moore Russell said their “requirements were ignored.”
• Trick Daddy’s response: The rapper said he wasn’t given a playlist and felt “disrespected.” He added: “For any future MF that wants to book me, ain’t no clean version.”
• Diddy’s appeal: Sean “Diddy” Combs’ lawyers urged a panel at the Second U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to overturn his conviction and release him immediately, arguing his “freak-offs” were protected under the First Amendment.
• Diddy’s sentence status: Combs was transferred to a minimum security facility in Fort Dix, N.J., and his release date was moved up to April 25, 2028. Circuit Judge William J. Nardini called the case “exceptionally difficult” and did not immediately rule.
