Following the escalating sexual assault allegations against Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, scrutiny has turned to the rap mogul’s past connections with various celebrities, including Justin Bieber. The pop star has remained largely out of the limelight since Diddy’s homes were raided in March and his subsequent arrest in September. However, recent clips and photos of the duo have resurfaced online, reigniting discussions about their enigmatic friendship and drawing significant media attention once again.
Amid the swirling speculation, Justin Bieber is reportedly struggling to process the scandal involving his former mentor, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs. According to a source speaking to US Weekly, Bieber feels “completely disgusted” by the situation and desires to distance himself from Combs. While he’s been advised to maintain a safe distance from anything associated with the rapper, Bieber is also focused on “protecting himself” during this challenging time, as he navigates a “hard place mentall.
“He has such a history with Diddy, and the allegations against him have been hard to process. His happiness being a dad has outweighed his anxiety about Diddy,” the source continued. It is worth mentioning that Justin Bieber embraced fatherhood. He welcomed his first child, a son with wife Hailey Bieber, in August.
As fans are aware, Justin Bieber was mentored by the CEO of Bad Boy Records, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, and even signed with his label, which marked the beginning of their friendship. With speculation intensifying, some believe that Bieber may have been one of Combs’ victims, while others allege that he could have attended the rapper’s notorious “Freak Off” parties.
In September this year, Combs was arrested after being accused of racketeering, sex trafficking and sexual assault. Federal prosecutors claimed that the hip-hop star hosted ‘freak-off’ parties, where women were lured and coerced into indulging in sexual performances. The parties were allegedly recorded, allowing the rapper to blackmail his victims.
Despite pleading not guilty to the charges, Combs remains in custody at a Brooklyn detention facility and awaits trial.
