BREACHING TRADEMARKS
In honour of Halloween last year Diddy dressed up as Batman’s archnemesis; The Joker. His costume was honestly way too believable and strikingly convincing. Not to mention the artist impersonation of the character was spot on.
Diddy’s costume was inspired by the late Heath Ledger’s iteration of the character from the 2012 film The Dark Knight.
According to Combs Warner Bros. Entertainment claims that he impersonation of The Joker was allegedly “breaching the trademark” established by the production company. And as a result, the rapper is now banned from ever dressing as The Joker.
“Breaking Halloween news: last year after I did the Black Joker, I got a bunch of emails from the studio telling me to not be the Joker anymore, that I was breaching the trademark. So, I don’t know what I’m going to be this year,” Diddy shared in a post to Instagram.
Diddy continued: “To the [person] that took all this time… to tell me not to be the Joker, you win. I’m not going to be the Joker this year because your ass had enough time to fuck up my Halloween”.

DIDDY FIGHTS BACK AS BATMAN
Diddy finally reveals his 2023 Halloween costume!
Despite being banned from dressing up as The Joker, Diddy has now retaliated against Warner Bros. Entertainment by dressing up as The Joker’s archnemesis The Dark Knight: Batman.
Now this might ruffle some feathers at Warner Bros. Entertainment and lead to another ban but it’s rather interesting why a huge corporation would want to ban one celebrity for dressing up as a character when so many others do the same for Halloween.
