Diddy is famous for his spectacular New Year’s Eve parties, however he’s reportedly being forced to cancel his December 31 Miami bash for the second year in a row.

TMZ reports that the Bad Boy Entertainment founder made the decision because Omicron cases are increasing in Florida and around the country. Diddy also canceled his 2020 NYE celebration due to COVID-19. Instead of a formal party on New Year’s Eve, the two-time Grammy winner handed out $50 bills in the Overtown section of Miami

His last NYE party, in 2019 at Miami’s Story Nightclub, was attended by 500 people, including Fat Joe,
