Justin Bieber Denied Being Abused By Diddy
One topic that has trended over the past few weeks is Diddy’s relationship with pop star Justin Bieber. Combs met Justin through his mentor, Usher, when he was only a teenager. People speculated even more about their relationship in 2024, when a video resurfaced of Combs and Justin, where he appeared to be patting him down for a wire.
However, in a recent statement, Justin emphatically denies ever being abused by Diddy in any way. He also says that the speculation about him being one of Combs’ victims takes away from those who actually suffered abuse at his hands.
“Although Justin is not among Sean Combs’ victims, there are individuals who were genuinely harmed by him. Shifting focus away from this reality detracts from the justice these victims rightfully deserve,” the statement reads.
A lot of this speculation about Diddy and Justin’s relationship is thanks to Combs’ long-time rival Suge Knight. They have had issues dating back to the East Coast and West Coast rivalry in the 1990s. Knight previously said that Diddy began to groom Bieber after Usher introduced him to Justin.
“It was the saddest thing in the world what they did to Justin Bieber. They had sex with him. I hate to say that because I really like Justin Bieber. I feel bad for Justin Bieber,” Knight said in a 2024 interview with Michael Franzese.
“He could have been bigger than Michael Jackson, but the question of the drugs and the stuff, what [Diddy] allowed these grown men to do to this little boy was unhealthy and f****d up. No grown men are supposed to be getting high and doing drugs and drinking with kids.”
