ustin Bieber is feeling the impact of his former mentor Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ arrest and is having a hard time trusting those close to him, as per new reports.
RadarOnline reports that the pop star has stepped back from public life after everything that’s happened with Diddy in recent weeks. Old videos of Bieber as a teenager have gone viral online since Diddy’s arrest, leading to various conspiracy theories and rumors.
Music mogul Diddy, as you probably know, is facing serious charges like sex trafficking, racketeering and transporting people for prostitution. On October 1st, more legal actions were announced according to the Los Angeles Times; over 100 individuals are planning to file lawsuits claiming sexual abuse and exploitation by Diddy.
With Diddy’s arrest making headlines, many A-listers have been linked to his notorious “Freak Off” parties. There are also connections being made between Justin Bieber and Diddy; they met when Bieber was just 15 years old.
RadarOnline claims that now at age 30, Bieber feels “haunted” by his past experiences.
Fans grew concerned recently when they noticed Bieber looking tired and thin while out for dinner with his wife Hailey. RadarOnline suggests this was around the same time old clips of him with Diddy became popular again.
In one clip that went viral,Diddy talked about spending “48 hours” with a young Bieber who was only fifteen then.
“He’s having a wild time with me. What we’re doing can’t be shared but it’s definitely every teen’s dream … we’re gonna go all out,” he said.
Now sources say that these ties between Justin & Diddy might be negatively impacting the Baby singer. One person who worked closely with him told PageSix: “Do I think he got involved in some dumb stuff? Yeah.”
“He was just a kid but also the biggest pop star globally! Everyone worried about him not knowing if he would make it through.”
“People took advantage of everything he did.”
Another source added: “Justin has done some really wild things & pushed away those around him. He doesn’t trust them anymore.”
Since his arrest,Diddy’s bail has been denied twice because judges believe he could scare witnesses away
