Justin Bieber is said to be so devastated by the news of music mogul Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ arrest for sex trafficking that he has cut off contact with the outside world.

The music mogul was arrested in New York on a slew of charges, including years of coercion, abuse, blackmail and violence to control victims. Diddy is also suspected of luring multiple male and female victims into drug-fueled, multi-day sex shows known as Freak Offs .
Diddy’s crimes spanned a long period of time, dating back to at least 2009.
The veteran rapper is currently facing charges of sex trafficking , forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice.
The incident is said to have shocked many people because Diddy is a big name, associating with countless A-list stars such as Jay-Z and Beyoncé, Rihanna, Jennifer Lopez, Usher , The Weeknd, Janelle Monáe, Queen Latifah, Snoop Dogg…
However, the most troubled character right now is Justin Bieber. Their relationship is especially close as Justin was a student of Usher – who was an early supporter of Diddy. The “Prince of Pop” also appeared on Diddy’s 2023 album Album Love: Off the Grid .
Insiders told the Daily Mail the new father was left stunned by the allegations from his close colleague and was struggling to make sense of them.
“Bieber is very upset about the Diddy news and doesn’t want to analyze or discuss it, so he’s been quiet. A lot of the people who helped make him who he is today were very close to Diddy and it’s completely devastated him. Justin hasn’t responded to this since Diddy’s house was raided. He won’t,” the source said.

According to insiders, Justin also regrets working with the scandalous tycoon nearly a year ago. The 1994-born singer wishes he had known about the news sooner.
Previously, Justin kept his distance from Diddy for a long time, but then agreed to contribute vocals to the song Mommet on his former mentor’s latest album.
When the album was released in October 2023, Justin shared about the first time he met Diddy. According to an Instagram post, the Baby singer has known Diddy since he was 14 years old.
creepy video
While Justin temporarily cut off contact with the outside world, social networks spread a video described as “horrifying” of him and his friend committing a crime many years ago.
In the video, Diddy stands next to Justin (then 15) and tells the camera: “He has 48 hours with Diddy. Can’t tell you where we’re going or what we’re doing, but it’s a 15-year-old’s dream… I don’t have legal custody of him, but for the next 48 hours, he’s with me and we’re going crazy.”
While refusing to share what they’ll be doing, viewers can hear the two stars discussing finding some girls.
The video has caused a stir online. Many believe it poses a danger to Justin.
Netizens commented: “These videos need to be reposted to expose Diddy’s disturbing behavior around 15-year-old Justin Bieber. This is how a weirdo acts that’s creepy… We should hold people accountable, regardless of their status or fame,” “This video of Diddy and Justin Bieber will forever be creepy. Diddy’s weird obsession with a young Justin Bieber is disturbing. Hollywood needs to stop making excuses for these twisted power dynamics,” “A grown Diddy with a 15-year-old Justin Bieber talking about partying. Look how annoying Justin Bieber is.”
Diddy’s video reveals his intention to take Justin to some places and do some secret things that make the public terrified.
Diddy’s words to Justin are reminiscent of Usher’s sharing about the time he lived with Diddy when he was 14 years old.
In a 2016 interview on The Howard Stern Show , Burn said that while living with Diddy in Scarsdale, New York in 1994, he had the opportunity to see some things beyond the imagination of a teenager.
“I don’t know if I could soak it in and even understand what I was seeing. It was pretty wild. It was crazy. There were some really weird things going on and I didn’t necessarily understand it,” Usher said.
The music legend born in 1978 also firmly refused when the reporter asked if he intended to send his children to experience the same thing.
Back in 2004, Usher shared with Rolling Stone magazine that Diddy introduced him to sex.
“The sex in this business is so exciting, man. There are always girls around. You open the door and there’s someone doing it, or multiple people in the room. You never know what’s going to happen,” Usher said.
Sean Combs pleaded not guilty at a hearing on September 17. The court denied the singer bail despite his lawyers’ proposal to pay $50 million and wear an electronic monitoring bracelet.
