Fact Check: Did Justin Bieber admit and show proof of what Diddy allegedly did to him? Viral YouTube video debunked

On October 6, 2024, YouTube channel Screen Queen uploaded a 16-minute video that claimed Justin Bieber has finally come forward with proof of what rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs allegedly did to him. The video, titled "Justin Bieber Finally ADMITS & Shows Proof What Diddy Did To Him | Parties Were INSANE," has received over 361K views.

However, the viral video claiming that Bieber exposed Diddy was debunked by the fact-checking website Snopes.com. The singer did not admit to anything in the video, nor is there any mention of the alleged "proof" the video's title claimed to have. The video also added a disclaimer that said:

"The content on this channel may contain gossip-based information, rumors, or exaggerated portrayals of reality. Please exercise your own discretion while watching and remember that not all information presented may be factual or verified."

The video is interspersed with clips featuring Diddy and Bieber taken from old YouTube videos or social media footage. It also featured conspiracy theories from TikTok users who believe the singer's Yummy music video was an allegory for Diddy's white parties.

It is a widely thought rumor that Justin Bieber was one of Diddy's alleged victims due to his young age when he broke into the industry. This was further purported by singer Jaguar Wright, who claimed in a recent TikTok video that Usher gained custody of Bieber when he was a teenager and turned him over to Diddy.

However, it is important to note that these are allegations, and there has been no concrete proof to support this theory. Justin Bieber is yet to release an official statement regarding Diddy's arrest. The singer recently became a first-time father after his wife, Hailey Bieber, gave birth to their son on August 22, 2024.

Justin Bieber and Diddy last collaborated in 2023

Justin Bieber and Diddy's last collaboration came a year before the latter was arrested on s*x trafficking and prostitution charges. Bieber featured on Diddy's song Moments from his 2023 album The Love Album: Off the Grid.

Justin Bieber and Diddy first met early on in the singer's career. Following Diddy's arrest, a 2009 video of Bieber spending 48 hours at Diddy's home resurfaced on the internet. The singer was reportedly 15 at the time.

Another 2010 video of Diddy and Bieber recently resurfaced on the internet, where the rapper asked Bieber why they don't spend much time together.

“What’s up man, you good? Selling out arenas and everything? Starting to act different, huh? You haven’t been calling me and hanging out the way we used to hang out,” Diddy asked him in the video.

The pair appeared on the late-night show Jimmy Kimmel Live! in 2011. In the interview, Diddy referred to Justin Bieber as his "little brother." This video also came under scrutiny following Diddy's arrest, with many interpreting Diddy's remarks as a threat against Bieber.

"He [Bieber] knows better than to be talking about the things that he does with big brother Puff on national television. Everything ain’t for everybody,” Diddy said in the interview.

While Justin Bieber is yet to make a public statement regarding Diddy's arrest, a source revealed to Us Weekly that the singer is allegedly "completely disgusted" by the accusations against the rapper.

The source added that Bieber has been advised to keep his distance from anything relating to Diddy in light of his arrest. Another source claimed the singer was "in a hard place mentally" due to his history with the rapper.

Sean Combs' s*x trafficking trial is expected to begin on May 5, 2025. The rapper faces new lawsuits every week accusing him of abuse, r*pe, and s*xual assault.
