Justin Bieber denied online rumours that he was abused by Sean Combs in his first public statement since Combs was arrested for sex-trafficking and racketeering.
With Combs’ trial underway this week in New York, Bieber’s rep released a statement Friday in part due to the many rumors that have propagated since Combs’ arrest that alluded to Bieber being an abuse victim of Combs.
A rep said in a statement that “Although Justin is not among Sean Combs’ victims, there are individuals who were genuinely harmed by him”
The rep said “Shifting focus away from this reality detracts from the justice these victims rightfully deserve.”
In the aftermath of Combs’ arrest, the internet was awash with resurfaced videos where the Bad Boy exec and the then-teenaged singer talked about hanging out together, a conversation that — in light of the accusations — is unsettling.
