Justin Bieber Was Not a Sean 'Diddy' Combs Victim: Reports

Justin Bieber was not a victim of Sean "Diddy" Combs, according to a statement his representative gave multiple news outlets.

With accusers coming forward against Combs, who is on trial over trafficking and other charges in New York City, speculation has raged among the singer's fans about whether Bieber could be among his victims. However, the singer's representative has set the record straight to TMZ as graphic accusations emerge involving other people during Combs' jury trial in New York City.

The rep says Bieber was not a victim of Combs.

"Although Justin is not among Sean Combs' victims, there are individuals who were genuinely harmed by him. Shifting focus away from this reality detracts from the justice these victims rightfully deserve," a rep for Bieber told TMZ and E! News.

That comment came after multiple sources told TMZ that Bieber was not a victim of Combs.

"Multiple sources in Justin's life say nothing untoward happened between them," TMZ reported on May 15, 2025, referring to Bieber and Combs.

Although TMZ's sources were anonymous, the entertainment news site reported that they were "at the center" of Bieber's life. And they adamantly denied that Combs abused Bieber.

"Diddy never... abused Bieber," in any way, the sources told TMZ

Combs and Bieber do have a connection. According to TMZ, Bieber was close to two of Combs' children, his sons Quincy and Justin Combs.

Fans have expressed concern about Bieber in recent months because of a series of emotional photos and comments that he has posted on social media.

E! News also reported that Bieber "has crossed paths with Combs, 55, several times in his career," but that's not very surprising considering they were both very successful in the music business. The two were photographed together over the years at events.

In 2011, Bieber appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! with Combs, and said, "He got me a Lamborghini, but I haven't gotten yet.

Combs responded, according to the video. "He got the Lamborghini for a day or two. He has access to the house. He knows better than to be talking about the things that he does with Big Brother Puff on national television."
