“Creepy” footage featuring 15-year-old Justin Bieber alongside Sean “Diddy” Combs has resurfaced amid the rapper’s sexual assault lawsuit and a federal sex trafficking investigation.
The video, titled “Justin Bieber’s 48 hrs with Diddy!!”, was originally posted by Bieber, a “small town kid from Stratford, Ontario,” on his YouTube channel in 2009. “I told you guys I produced a song for Diddy and I wanted to show it to him and you got his attention. Best fans in the world. Well this past weekend I spent 48 hrs with Diddy and had some fun. Here is some of the action. Thanks for the car PUFF … haha,” reads the video description. Born Sean Love Combs, the 54-year-old rapper is popularly known by his stage names Puff Daddy, P. Diddy or Diddy.

The over two-minutes-long-video resurfaced on social media shortly after the rapper’s homes were raided by Homeland Security. It opens with the rapper showing the then-15-year-old his Lamborghini that he promises Bieber would get to drive after he turns 16.
“You ever seen the movie 48 Hrs? Right now (Justin is) having 48 hours with Diddy, him and his boy,” says Combs. “They’re having the times of their lives, like where we hanging out and what we’re doing we can’t really disclose. But it’s definitely a 15-year-old’s dream.”

Referencing his past mentorship relationship with musician Usher, he says, “I have been given custody of him. You know, he’s signed to Usher and I had legal guardianship of Usher when he did his first album. I did Usher’s first album.
“For the next 48 hours, he’s with me. And we’re gonna go full. Buck full crazy.”
When Combs asks what Bieber wants to do, the 15-year-old says, “Let’s go get some girls.”

“Man after my heart,” says Combs. “That’s what I’m talking about.”
“Creepy video of P. Diddy 40 years old saying he wants to have a 48hr sleepover with Justin Bieber who is only 15 years old,” Diana Wallace recently posted on X, formerly Twitter. “Diddy and Justin Bieber. There was definitely grooming going on,” alleges Ian Miles Cheong, another X user.
Meanwhile, comments on Bieber’s YouTube channel where the original video was posted has comments from four months ago that express similar concerns. “How did anybody not catch this 14yrs ago??? We’ve got to do better this time around,” wrote user @omollychambers. “Justin whenever you’re ready to tell your story. We’re here for you boo,” commented @NW34832.
The video resurfaced as Combs undergoes severe scrutiny. In February, he was slapped with a $30-million lawsuit by his former employee and music producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones Jr. The producer filed an amended version this Monday. The lawsuit alleges Combs sexually harassed, drugged and threatened him for a year.
Combs’ two mansions in Los Angeles were also raided Monday by Homeland Security and a spokesperson said it was part of “an ongoing investigation.”
The raids are “in connection with a federal sex trafficking investigation,” Fox 11 reported.
