Sean “Diddy” Combs has been rumored to be involved in a number of unsavory things over the years. When he was arrested for sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution, no one thought it would be as bad as it turned out to be. Now, fans are looking at his associations with certain people like Justin Bieber in a whole new light. Evidently, Justin has started to open up about his “nightmare” experience with Diddy. Keep reading to see what an insider revealed.
Justin Bieber Breaks Silence With Friends
There have been a number of clips resurfacing on the internet of Diddy and a very young Justin Bieber. Knowing what we know now, the videos have an uncomfortable feeling about them.
After the news of Diddy’s arrest broke, fans flooded Justin’s Instagram page with messages of support. Some people have said that those around the “Baby” singer should have done a better job of protecting him. Others are pushing for Justin to expose Diddy and reveal what he knows.
An insider spoke with In Touch Weekly about how Justin Bieber is handling it all. “The last thing Justin wants to do is relive or even discuss his complicated friendship with Diddy,” the insider stated. “But he’s finally breaking his silence to his friends about his nightmare experience and the private hell it’s caused him.”
Justin, who has publicly struggled with drug addiction, suicidal ideations, and mental breakdowns, had a troubling relationship with the rapper.
The Pop Star Wants To Protect Other Young Artists
Diddy and Justin were first introduced by Usher when Justin was about 13 years old. Earlier this year, a clip of them together resurfaced. It was from 2009 when Justin Bieber was only 15 years old.
In the video, Diddy says, “He’s having 48 hours with Diddy. What we’re doing, we can’t really disclose, but it’s definitely a 15-year-old’s dream … we’re gonna go full crazy.” Then, Justin meekly replies, “Let’s just go get some girls.”
There have been times that Justin Bieber has hinted at the trauma he went through being in the music industry at such a young age. In his 2020 song “Lonely,” he sings, “Everybody saw me sick, and it felt like no one gave a sh*t.”
The pop star has also frequently spoken about protecting other young artists in the industry. Speaking about Billie Eilish, he said, “If she ever needs me, I’m going to be here for her. I don’t want her to go through anything I went through. I don’t wish that upon anybody.” He’s told a number of other young stars that they can call on him if they find themselves in a tough spot.
That said, the inside source said that it has been difficult for Justin Bieber now that all of this stuff from his past is being “dredged up.” However, he is keeping his focus on his “massively supportive wife, Hailey Bieber, and his one-month-old baby, Jack.
They concluded, “But if speaking about his past trauma can help others, he probably will. He wants to break the cycle, once and for all.”
