In the backyard of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ empty mansion in Los Angeles, a glittering chrome structure looms over the rose gardens below.
Forget the marble-carved statues depicting Greek gods and heroes. In true Diddy fashion, a 20-foot-tall chrome sculpture of a nude female body, cut off at the neck and above the knees, is revealed in new exclusive photos obtained by DailyMail.com
The disgraced rap mogul has claimed in the past that the statue was a monument to his late partner Kim Porter – who died six years ago on Friday at the age of 47.
She was the mother of his children Christian ‘King’ and twins Jessie and D’Lila Combs.
Diddy, 55, told fellow rapper Fat Joe, 54, in a Instagram livestream in 2020 that he had bought the statue for his late partner Kim Porter, three years before she died in 2018 after going on a “spiritual retreat” alone.
Fat Joe asked the rapper if that image made him feel like she was “always” with him.
Diddy replied with a chuckle, “Without a doubt, because look, you can see the curvature, you know what I mean? My baby had a bit of badonkadonk.”
But with the recent alleged sex crimes that have surfaced around the 55-year-old, the irony of having a naked body replica in his garden is not lost.

The rapper said the sculpture depicting a woman’s naked body is meant to commemorate his late partner Kim Porter and her “little badonkadonk.”

Closer inspection reveals that the monument’s proportions differ greatly from the slender but round body of the Porter model.
The $62 million Holmby Hills estate was purchased by Diddy ten years earlier for $40 million.
Now it is completely empty.
Garden furniture and mattresses are covered in white sheets and the bottom of his beautiful lagoon-style swimming pool looks neglected with a murky brown color at the shallow end.
The huge pool slide, underwater cave and one-sided basketball court are clearly unused.
But the hedges, roses and lawn of the formally landscaped garden appear well cared for, while the statue continues to glitter.
The mansion with ten beds and 13 bathrooms has been mentioned on sale for a whopping $61.5 million on September 8.
But according to TMZSources revealed that Diddy is struggling to attract interest, with some claiming the price is ‘ridiculous’ and other buyers put off by his off-beat reputation.

That disdain can also be attributed to Homeland Security Investigations serving search warrants in an early morning raid on his mansions in Los Angeles and Miami in March.
At the time, Diddy’s eldest two sons, Justin, 30, and Christian “King” Combs, 26, were at the Los Angeles residence and were handcuffed as the search continued.
During those raids, authorities seized drugs, videos and more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricants, prosecutors said.
They also seized weapons and ammunition, including three AR-15s with illegible serial numbers.
Diddy was arrested in New York on September 16 following a grand jury indictment. The charges were unveiled the next day after the rap mogul was denied bail. Since then, he has been locked up in the tough Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York.
His latest bail application will be heard in court on November 22.
What emerged from the charging papers was the stuff of nightmares: freak-offs, or sex parties, where women were exploited, recorded, drugged into compliance and forced to participate in twisted debauchery.

Following his arrest, lawsuit after lawsuit emerged from women claiming they were violated by the rapper and his entourage. On October 1, 120 people came forward with claims of abuse, including an alleged victim who was nine when he said Diddy abused him.
In the most recent disturbing event, sources claimed the rapper was able to see into the women’s section of the Brooklyn jail.
His mother Janice Combs, 83, has been sued by Deon “D1” Best, he claimed on the Nov. 7 DailyMail.com podcast, “The Trial of Diddy.”
Best alleged that Diddy used Janice’s name to hide artists’ publishing rights, including deals. Best said he became a mediator in the late 1990s.
He explained that his company, Finish Line Entertainment, signed artists to Diddy who worked on several albums for Bad Boy, including Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace’s 1999 “Born Again,” which reached platinum status and sold more than a million copies sold.
Best, 56, said the way Combs allegedly organized his business deals not only took away publishing rights from him and the artists who worked on the songs, but also blocked them from future income — instead passing that money on to Janice .
