In the P.Diddy affair, the name of Justin Bieber continues to resonate. The rapper is accused of sexual assault and sex trafficking by at least 120 people who filed a complaint this fall. In pre-trial detention since September 17, he is expected to remain there until May 5, the date of his trial. But in the meantime, speculation that Justin Bieber is one of these victims continues to grow.
Justin Bieber victime de P.Diddy ?
In this article published last month, we explained to you in particular that, on social networks, It is said that Justin Bieber’s song “Yummy” is full of references to the fact that he was allegedly the victim of sexual assault by P.Diddy. More recently, Suge Knight, founder of the historic music label Death Row Records, considered one of the pillars of rap, stated that P.Diddy used to take ‘romantic vacations’ with grown men and Justin Bieber when the latter was still a minor.
Bieber and Diddy in this video from 2011
This time, it’s a video dating from 2011 that resurfaces and shakes up social networks. In these images, the man who was then called Puff Diddy and Justin Bieber are on the set of Jimmy Kimmel Live!. The rapper and the singer, then 16 years old, are questioned about their relationship. “What’s going on between you? Do you work together?” asks Jimmy Kimmel, the host of the show. “No… We became friends in a strange way,” P.Diddy replies before adding: “For a lot of us, he’s like a little brother… He’s not afraid to call and ask for advice.”
In the interview transcribed at greater length by Page Six, P.Diddy then compares the music industry to “a strong family” and that many people, including himself, want to “surround” the young Bieber for ” protect” because she’s a “nice person”. “Besides his talent, he’s one of the greatest kids you’ll ever know,” he adds.
P.Diddy’s threats?
Faced with this praise, Jimmy Kimmel suggested that P.Diddy buy the singer a car like he did for his own son. To which Justin Bieber responds: “He gave me a Lamborghini, but I haven’t had it yet.” To these words, the rapper reacts, without a smile. “He had the Lamborghini for a day or two and he had access to the house,” he says first. And what follows is chilling: “and he knows he shouldn’t talk about the things he does with his big brother Puff on national television,” the rapper adds.
Humor or real threats? No one knows yet. In the 2011 footage, the audience laughs and applauds at P.Diddy’s remarks. But the public of 2024 is less enthusiastic. In comments to this video, Internet users are rather horrified, convinced that Justin Bieber is one of the rapper’s victims and that these images are proof. “A red flag that everyone ignored”; ‘It’s tragic, horrible and despicable that this happened to a young boy. I’m sick to my stomach. Where were the people who should have protected him?’ ; “What does a grown man need to hide from what he does with a 14 year old boy? What can’t be said on television…?”; Internet users react.
To date Justin Bieber has not yet reacted to these rumors.
