Justin Bieber has a close relationship with Diddy through Usher, Justin’s first teacher and also Diddy’s protégé in the early years of his career. Justin even contributed vocals to Diddy’s album “Love: Off the Grid” released in 2023. However, now, the young singer is in a state of crisis after hearing the news of the arrest.
A source told the Daily Mail: “Bieber was very upset by the allegations about Diddy and didn’t want to analyze or discuss them, so he kept quiet. The people who helped Justin in his career were all very close to Diddy, which caused him a big crisis.” Justin also regretted collaborating with Diddy on his recent music and wished he had known the truth sooner.
Controversial Video and Questionable Past
At the same time that Justin temporarily cut off contact with the outside world, an old video from many years ago went viral on social media. The video shows Diddy standing next to Justin when he was just 15 years old, declaring that Justin would spend 48 “crazy” hours with him, without revealing what they would do. The video caused outrage because many people thought it contained potential dangers for Justin who was just a teenager at the time.
The online community has called for Diddy’s disturbing behavior to be exposed, criticizing Hollywood for covering up the wrongdoings of famous people. Many people pointed out that Diddy has questionable relationships and distorted power, which negatively affects young artists like Justin Bieber.
Related to Usher’s Experience with Diddy
Diddy’s words in the video reminded many people of Usher’s sharing about the time he lived with Diddy when he was 14 years old. In an interview in 2016, Usher recounted that while living with Diddy, he witnessed things that a teenager could hardly understand or accept. These experiences made Usher affirm that he never wanted his children to go through the same thing.
Currently, Diddy has pleaded not guilty at the hearing on September 17 and has been denied bail by the court, despite the legal team offering to pay a fee of $ 50 million and wear an electronic monitoring bracelet. Diddy’s arrest was not only a huge shock to the entertainment industry, but also left many questions about his relationships and behavior over the years. For Justin Bieber, this incident was not only a shock but also a great lesson about relationships in the complicated and dangerous world of showbiz.
