The headlines these days show that there is a storm brewing in Hollywood as allegations against singer Diddy come out. Now, it seems some people believe that Justin Bieber might have in some way been involved.
Keep reading to learn the latest update.
In a cryptic video posted to TikTok, Stephen Baldwin, who is popstar Justin Bieber’s father-in-law, was seen to be saying, “this is the calm before the storm.” A lot of people seem to think the video points to Bieber’s formerly close relationship with Diddy.
The video came after a video of Diddy partying with a 15-year-old Bieber started making rounds on the internet after the rapper’s arrest on sex-trafficking charges.
“And in that calm comes a preparation… for the next storm,” Baldwin said at the end of his clip. The actor was wearing a 1974 People Magazine hat in the video, which led viewers to speculate even more about the hidden message of his video.
“I think he’s saying somethings getting ready to come out in People Magazine because of the hat?” a user theorized, referring to perhaps an upcoming exposé in People Magazine about Diddy’s misdemeanors and, perhaps, those of other celebrities implicated in the scandal.
Sean Combs, better known by his stagename ‘Diddy,’ arrested as he waits for trial at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. His trial is scheduled for October 9, 2024. Authorities revealed that Diddy was placed on a “suicide watch,” and that they had placed appropriate measures around him to ensure his safety.
According to the prosecution’s claims, Diddy ran and built a “criminal enterprise” through his business empire and engaged in various crimes which included arson, bribery, obstruction of justice, and even forced labor.
“Physical abuse by the defendant was recurrent and widely known. On numerous occasions from at least in or about 2009 and continuing for years, [he] assaulted women by, among other things, striking, punching, and dragging,” the document said.
Combs’ recent indictment also mentioned details of his involvement in what he called “Freak Offs,” where he lured female and male and male sex workers into drug-fueled, multi-day sexual escapades. During the raid, authorities found, among other things, lubricant, baby oil, and firearms.
Fellow rapper 50 Cent, who’s currently producing an upcoming docuseries that centers around Diddy’s crimes, has said there are other popular celebrities who are also complicit.
“Some of them were involved, at the parties and enjoyed themselves, so they don’t know what the f–k is on tape or what’s not on tape, so they’re not going to say anything because they might have had too much fun,” he shared.
Apart from Diddy and Bieber at parties, while the latter was still a minor, there are also old videos of Bieber being harassed as a young teenager making rounds on the internet.
One of those clips is of comedian James Corden, who stares into Bieber’s eyes and tells him he “smelled really good,” to another where singer Katy Perry grabs the teenager’s butt tightly. They have been making rounds on social media once again, and people are questioning why the young boy was treated like that.
Another popular clip is of Actress and Model Jenny McCarthy, who seems to forcibly grab Bieber and give him numerous unsolicited kisses on his neck at the 2012 American Music Awards. The action makes Bieber recoil and says on the mic that he feels “violated.”
The videos are usually joined with a 2020 interview with Justin, in which he sobs and expresses how he wants to protect fellow popstar Billie Eilish.
“I don’t want her to lose it…” he says, with a lot of people thinking ‘it’ refers to innocence. “I don’t want her to go through what I’ve been through. I don’t wish that upon anybody.”
A video of Diddy and Bieber has been making rounds following these stories about Diddy coming out. In the video, Diddy says he doesn’t have “legal guardianship of him but for the next 48 hours he’s with me and we’re gonna go full crazy.”
