Diddy spotted with son Justin for first time since he was detained during raids | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV
Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been snapped hanging out with his son for the first time since the raid on his Los Angeles and Miami homes last month.
Diddy, 54, and Justin, 30, were spotted enjoying a leisurely stroll around the music mogul’s private Star Island estate in Miami.
Justin was detained last month as part of the multiple raids on Diddy’s homes as part of an ongoing sex trafficking investigation.
Federal agents swarmed the family home in Los Angeles, where Justin and his brother Christian ‘King’ Combs were handcuffed and detained.
Sources later told ABC News that they were then released without charges.
In the latest pics of the rapper, Diddy and his son looked calm and casual while they walked around the Miami estate.
They both donned t-shirts to soak up some springtime sun, while Diddy looked firmly in vacation mode in a bucket hat and sunglasses.
The rapper wore beige shorts and black sandals, while Justin donned black trousers and a pair of black casual shoes.
At one point, Diddy placed his hand on Justin’s shoulder, enjoying some father-son time, and the rapper appeared in high spirits.
Both father and son enjoyed some wine during their stroll, and they were also joined by Justin’s girlfriend Stephanie Rao.
Diddy’s latest appearance over the weekend comes shortly after he baffled his fans with a suggestive social media post.
Taking to Instagram, he shared a clip from his 1998 music video for his single Victory, which features the star running from a SWAT team.
Known then as Puff Daddy, the star raps alongside late The Notorious B.I.G. in the track, which also features a guest appearance from Danny DeVito.
Danny says the rapper has evaded capture for years before ‘Most Wanted’ appears on screen.
The post was captioned “Bad Boy for life”.

Dolly Parton shares sad admission as she makes first appearance in months | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV

Dolly Parton has made a poignant return to the public eye following months of absence from events, disclosing she has been battling health concerns whilst mourning the death of her husband Carl Dean. The 80-year-old country icon took to the stage on for Dollywood’s 41st season opening day festivities, where she received rapturous applause from supporters as she spoke to the audience. Her appearance follows widespread concern about her well-being in recent months, with the performer postponing her Las Vegas residency and missing several significant events. Speaking frankly during the festivities, Dolly acknowledged she had been facing challenges both physically and emotionally following Carl’s passing last year. She said: “I’ve been up to a lot. I’ve not been touring, as you know. I’ve had a few little health issues, and we’re taking good care of them.”

The Jolene star then revealed the impact of losing her husband, stating: “I just kind of got worn down and worn out, grieving over Carl and a lot of other little things going on.”
Dolly added: “I just got myself kind of where I needed to build myself back up spiritually, emotionally, and physically. But, all is good. It didn’t slow me down.”
Dolly’s spouse passed away in March last year aged 82. Since then, the singer has maintained a relatively subdued presence, making only a few appearances and opting to send video messages to some events rather than attend in person. During the event, Dolly was accompanied on stage by Eugene Naughton, the president of Dollywood Parks and Resorts, and she remained in high spirits, cracking jokes despite her poignant revelation.
Engaging in banter with the audience, she playfully suggested that some might see him as her “new husband,” then promptly dismissed the idea. She declared: “I’m not dating anybody. I think Carl Dean’s waiting for me. If I should show up at the pearly gates with somebody else, he would not like that. He’d be saying, ‘Who’s that little p**ser? You leave him outside the gates.'”
The star was dressed in her usual glamorous attire for the occasion, donning a white dress with a denim vest adorned with floral detailing, whilst her blonde hair was styled half-up with loose waves cascading over her shoulders. Dolly’s multitude of fans are likely to breathe a sigh of relief at her return to the stage, following months of speculation about her health and well-being.
Last year, Dolly disclosed she had been compelled to reschedule her Las Vegas performances until September 2026 due to “some health challenges”, subsequently clarifying that medical professionals had recommended she undergo “a few procedures”. Whilst she refrained from elaborating on those health matters, she later informed supporters: “And don’t worry about me quittin’ the business because God hasn’t said anything about stopping yet.
“But, I believe He is telling me to slow down right now so I can be ready for more big adventures with all of you. I love you and thank you for understanding.”
Anxiety also mounted after Dolly was absent from several public appearances, including her 80th birthday tribute concert at the Grand Ole Opry in January, whilst she also participated virtually in recent ceremonies rather than attending in person.
At one stage, her sister Freida even asked fans for prayers, triggering further concern amongst admirers, before Dolly later tackled the rumours herself in a video, quipping: “I ain’t dead yet!” She also asked supporters, “Do I look sick to you?” as she tried to reassure them. Earlier this year, Dolly had also acknowledged she had not entirely cared for herself following Carl’s death.
Mother’s Day is quite literally just a handful of hours away. And for children who have squandered their elongated chance of getting gifts for their doting parents, this is the final chance. Thankfully, there’s an easy win on the cards. ABBA, of course, need no introduction. And while the band themselves are no longer touring, their pioneering live show, ABBA Voyage, still takes place each day at London’s purpose-built Abba Arena.
The show mixes world-first holographic technology with a live band to bring to life an ABBA concert in real time. And with hours of songs on the setlist, fans of every decade have praised the feat. But it won’t last forever.
ABBA Voyage is currently planned to continue every Wednesday to Sunday, with some Mondays thrown in the mix.
But, at the time of writing, ABBA Voyage live dates are only planned to run until November. After that, it is expected to be moved to another city.
Thankfully, there are still plenty of ABBA Voyage tickets available now. Many of which can be snapped up for cheaper than one might expect.
Below, we’ve broken down the main ticket-selling websites and how fans can secure their access to the upcoming shows before Mother’s Day.
ABBA Voyage tickets are available now and can be purchased from a few online retailers.
First up is Ticketmaster. This go-between retailer allows fans to use a brand they know to buy ABBA Voyage tickets, and with a full calendar showing dates and times for the upcoming concerts, it’s easy to use.
Otherwise, the official ABBA Voyage website is music-lovers’ best bet. Here, tickets come straight from the source, and there are plenty of other options, as well.
The ABBA Voyage website also allows fans to book hotel rooms just a short distance from the arena, as well as peruse the merchandise and food options.
Here are the links fans need:
ABBA Voyage takes place daily at the Abba Arena in London. The venue, which was purpose-built for this ongoing residency, is located at Pudding Mill Lane, London, E15 2PJ.
The nearest tube stations to the venue are Pudding Mill Lane DLR station and Stratford tube station.
It is also near the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
ABBA Voyage is 100 minutes long, with no interval.
It’s the time-intensive ritual that’s become the only way to get tickets to see the world’s biggest artists.
But online queuing can come with an unexpected cost. New research has revealed that British music fans spend up to a collective total of 56 million hours a year, equivalent to 6,400 years simply waiting in queues, according to the survey by Jack Daniel’s & Coca-Cola.
Alarmingly, 21% admit to regularly missing out on tickets despite their best efforts, while 27% have woken up before 6am to get in line.
And it doesn’t stop there, 32% have travelled more than 150 miles to attend a concert and 14% admit paying more than £200 for a single ticket.
Ioanna Topali, marketing director alcohol ready to drink at Coca-Cola said: “The findings from our research confirm what we’ve always known: the passion of music fans is unrivalled.
“Seeing the incredible lengths people go to – from saving for months to the intricately crafted strategies with friends – is a testament to the nation’s deep love for live music.”
Top techniques to get tickets include using multiple devices (25%) to boost the chance of getting to the front of the queue while half form “Wolf Packs” of friends who work together.
People also use specific social media groups for tips (18%) and official fan clubs for coveted presale access (20%).
Mum and dad, of course, aren’t immune, as 22% of parents surveyed admitted to spending hours queuing online specifically to secure tickets for their children.
To help give fans access to gigs Jack Daniel’s & Coca-Cola, are launching Live From, a campaign offering lucky fans a queue-free path to live music.
By looking for promotional Jack Daniel’s & Coca-Cola cans nationwide, scanning the QR code and entering, music lovers can win live music experiences, including some of the most highly sought-after Wembley Stadium tickets, without the usual stress.
Topali added: “Jack Daniel’s and Coca-Cola have deep roots in music culture, and we believe that this dedication deserves to be celebrated. That’s why our ‘Live From’ campaign rewards the passion of live music fans, giving them a chance to skip the queue and get straight to the music they love.”
To learn more about Jack Daniel’s and Coca-Cola Live From, and be in with a chance of winning live music tickets, simply scan QR codes on cans from now until June 29.
