Troubled rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been desperately trying to make money by chartering his $60 million luxury private jet while facing an impending trial for sex trafficking.
The 55-year-old music mogul, who is currently behind bars awaiting trial on explosive charges, has chartered his luxury Gulfstream 550 jet to exclusive aviation platforms used by Hollywood’s elite.
Renting Diddy’s Gulfstream from Van Nuys Airport to Biggin Hill in London will cost a staggering $432,708.
The opulent 2015 model plane, registered to Combs’ company Loveair LLC, is also advertised on other broker sites such as Jettly, where it is described as being operated by luxury rental firm Silver Air.
This latest desperate attempt to raise funds comes just weeks after Combs put his palatial $61.5 million Beverly Hills mansion up for sale as he struggles to cover his legal costs ahead of his impending sex trafficking trial.
The once-powerful rap mogul, also known as Puff Daddy, was arrested in New York in August and charged with a litany of sex-related crimes.
He is currently in custody awaiting his trial, which is expected to begin in the coming months.

This comes as Diddy’s lawyers have again asked for bail just a month after being denied in previous attempts, as this time they have cited similar cases in which the defendants had been released.
The rapper’s (born Sean Combs) attorney filed a new motion Friday in another attempt to get him out of jail while he awaits trial, just days after he was first heard on a jailhouse call with his children.
According to legal documents from TMZ, Diddy’s attorneys are offering a comprehensive bail package that includes a $50 million bond plus 24-hour surveillance to ensure he doesn’t try to flee the country or intimidate witnesses.
His legal representation has made similar attempts several times before; However, they believe this time is different as they have cited other cases where they say those accused of similar crimes had been allowed to post bail while awaiting trial.
One of the examples used on the entertainment site included a case involving a CEO in which dozens of young men were accused of sex trafficking along with an accomplice who had intimidated witnesses.
