(NewsNation) — Literally nobody in Hollywood wants to be near Diddy, not even his lawyers… who just fired him as a client.
The powerful firm of Grubman, Shire, Meiselas & Sacks, which represents most major names in the music industry, dropped Diddy recently. but not because they wanted to: Because a more powerful client refused to leave if they did not sever ties.
My insider said, “Lady Gaga said she was leaving (the firm) if they didn’t drop Diddy. And she’s too big to lose.”
Meanwhile, Combs’ IMDB site, the ever-important listing for everyone in the industry which lists the names of celebrities, agents, lawyers, press representatives, and more, has been scrubbed and had just Combs Global on it, with just one employee: Combs. The Combs Global site itself appears to be a holding page with just a logo. Just last week he scrubbed his Instagram account as well.

Combs has been with GSM&S for over two decades and would often stop by his lawyer/friend Allen Grubman’s house when in the Hamptons. But no matter how close the two once were, the firm represents some of the biggest names in the music business, and can’t afford for Gaga or any of their other artists to bolt.
In the first full year of touring since the post-pandemic return, did stadium run deals for The Weeknd, Lady Gaga and Bruce Springsteen; arena tours for Madonna, Chris Brown, Lizzo and Nas; and hugely successful tours for Lil Wayne, Carly Rae Jepsen, and Nav, the critically acclaimed Vegas residency for Usher and the highly anticipated debut headlining treks for Lil Nas X and Zach Bryan, among others. The firm also closed several of the largest catalog sales in history last year for iconic artists Springsteen, Paul Simon, Sting, and the Estate of David Bowie, as well as catalog deals for Sarah McLachlan and Jhené Aiko.
A detailed message was left at the GSM&S law firm with a secretary and a rep for Diddy didn’t return texts.
