How Justin Bieber was ‘thrown to the wolves’ and allowed into Diddy’s depraved orbit
In February 2011, a 16-year-old Justin Bieber was nearing the height of his fame when he sat down with one of his key musical role models on national television.
Their closeness was evident. Bieber playfully copied his mentor’s every move on the interview couch, aping his hand gestures and speech, and even mimicking the way he crossed his legs.
It was so striking that show host Jimmy Kimmel said to his older interviewee: ‘Do you see what an impression you’re making on the young man? I hope you’re going to be a good role model to him… what’s going on with you guys?’
‘I think we’ve become friends in a strange way,’ came the reply.
But of course, that seemingly innocent interaction has now taken on a sinister new meaning, for the man who was sat with Bieber was Sean ‘Diddy‘ Combs, then aged 41.
On September 16 this year, the rapper was arrested in New York City and charged with a set of jaw-dropping crimes ranging from alleged sex trafficking to racketeering and transportation for the purposes of prostitution.
Now as Combs, 54, awaits trial and prosecutors have spoken to over 50 witnesses and victims, who they say will expose the utter depravity of his ‘criminal enterprise’, questions have been raised over why those responsible for Bieber allowed Diddy to become something of a mentor to him as a child.
Sources close to Bieber, 30, exclusively told the Daily Mail that he ‘should never have been allowed to party with Diddy or anyone else when he was a teen.’
They claim he was ‘thrown to the wolves’ by his mother Pattie Mallette and largely absent father Jeremy Bieber.
Usher, whose record label Bieber was signed to, and who was himself mentored by Diddy as a teen, is also partly responsible, these sources claim.
There is no evidence to suggest Bieber’s parents or Usher knew about Diddy’s alleged criminal activity at the time.
In that 2011 interview, Kimmel asked Bieber what they got up to when they hung out as friends, Combs interjected, saying, ‘he knows better than to be talking about the things he does with big brother Puff on national television. Everything ain’t for everybody.’
