Justin Bieber has broken his silence on explosive rumors connecting him to Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs just days after the disgraced music mogul’s sex trafficking trial began.

The rapper, 55, has been accused of a string of depraved crimes and there was widespread fears among fans that Bieber, 31, may have been abused by Diddy during his early years in the music industry.

Last year, a video of the pair resurfaced which some fans labeled as ‘disturbing’ and showed Combs and Justin – who was a minor at the time – hanging out for ’48 hours.’ The pair also worked together on an album.

However, the troubled singer released a statement on Thursday, insisting he wasn’t targeted by the rapper.

‘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,’ his spokesperson said in a statement to TMZ.

DailyMail.com has reached to Bieber’s reps for comment.

Sources also informed TMZ on Thursday that the Coming Home rapper never abused Justin in any way.

In regards to the videos of Diddy and Justin together, the insiders stated that the interactions were simply ‘performative’ – and explained Bieber was closer to the rapper’s sons rather than Sean.

Not long after Combs was arrested in the state of New York on sex trafficking and racketeering charges – which he has denied – a source opened up to DailyMail.com about Justin’s reaction to the news. 

‘Bieber is so disturbed by the Diddy news and is unwilling to process it or discuss it so he has shut off.’

The insider added, ‘So many people who helped to make him who he is were very close to Diddy and it has completely thrown him. Justin hasn’t been responding on this since the home raids. He’s not going to.’

According to the source, the singer also regretted working with Combs on the rapper’s 2023 album titled The Love Album: Off the Grid.

‘He had a long break from Diddy when he believes most of this took place and he had distanced himself from him.’

They continued, ‘He was featured on Diddy’s most recent album, and had he known any of this, there is no way he would have done it.’

A rep for Justin shared a statement to TMZ which read: ‘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’; Combs seen in court on Thursday

A past video also resurfaced last year as Combs and Bieber documented spending ’48 hours’ together.

In the clip, the pair could be seen standing next to each other and Diddy stated, ‘He’s having 48 hours with Diddy, where we hanging out and what we’re doing we can’t really disclose. But it’s definitely a 15-year-old’s dream.’

He added, ‘I have been given custody of him. He’s signed to Usher and I had legal guardianship of Usher when he did his first album.

‘I don’t have legal guardianship of him [Bieber] but for the next 48 hours he’s with me and we’re gonna go full crazy.’

The Baby hitmaker could be seen sporting a purple button up as well as a black cap as he stood next to Diddy.

During the clip, Justin offered simple responses to Combs – such as saying ‘yeah’ and also ‘full crazy.’
