Fans around the world pay attention to Diddy’s case, and they sympathize with Justin Bieber even more because they think the singer is a victim. So who introduced the Prince of Pop to the sick rapper?
Diddy is currently labeled as “extremely bad” on social media. Anything related to the American music mogul makes people uncomfortable. Among the celebrities mentioned alongside Diddy, Justin Bieber receives the most sympathy and protection. The male singer is said to be a victim of the sick rapper.
Justin Bieber and Diddy first met when the Prince of Pop was only 15 years old. Let’s not discuss what they did after meeting, what the public is more curious about is who introduced Justin? A newly-emerged child singer certainly could not have had the opportunity to approach the star, the mogul of the music industry in the US at that time.
The most mentioned person is Usher, who has won 5 Grammy Awards and is also considered a “monument” of world hip hop. After signing a recording contract with LA Reid, Usher was immediately introduced to Diddy and became so close that he moved to his senior’s house for a year. In 2016, in a conversation on the Howard Stern Show, Usher called this 1-year period “Puffy Flavor Camp”, describing it as “pretty wild and crazy”.
Notably, when asked: “Now that you are a father, have you ever sent your child to Puffy Camp?”, Usher immediately denied: “Absolutely not”.
But then again, Diddy is considered the person who supported Usher in his early years of his career. Whether Usher was ever a victim of his senior or not, perhaps only the male artist knows, but until now he has not spoken out and has just quietly locked all posts on Twitter.
Meanwhile, Usher is considered Justin Bieber’s first teacher. When Justin was 13 years old, he was discovered by Scooter Braun through YouTube videos. Not long after, the male singer was signed to RBMG. This is a company invested by Braun and Usher. Since then, Usher has become Bieber’s advisor and is considered his first “teacher”.
The relationship between the two has gone through many ups and downs, from being close to being rumored to have conflicts, but in the end, Usher still appeared at Hailey and Justin Bieber’s wedding. Later, when they met on a talk show, they also comfortably played games together.
When talking about Bieber, Usher shared: “I have witnessed him go through extremely complicated times. And I am always happy that he decided to return to what he loves (music) and has no regrets about it. I really admire Justin for being successful in doing it again, releasing a new album and sharing the dark corners of his life.”
The rumor that Usher went from victim to “pimp” who brought Justin Bieber to Diddy is still just baseless speculation of netizens. The people involved have remained completely silent so far. While Usher “disappeared” from social networks, not speaking out since Diddy was arrested, Bieber is quite stressed. The male singer said he did not want to mention his colleague’s problem but only wanted to focus on his family.
