A video of P Diddy and Justin Bieber has resurfaced – which has left fans concerned after they spotted what appeared to be a worrying moment.
Footage of Sean Combs and the pop star has gone viral after the rapper was arrested and is currently in prison. Combs has been charged with a series of sex trafficking and racketeering offenses, with more than 120 victims coming forward.
The video of Bieber and Diddy features the pair hugging but fans have claimed that they think Justin was being checked for a wire. Believed to be filmed back in 2021, Combs is seen patting Justin on the back and chest several times.
A user reshared the clip of X, formerly known as Twitter, as they speculated : “Diddy appears to be checking Justin Bieber to see if he is wearing a wire in this video.” Many agreed with the fan, with one suggesting: “He checking that man out for a wire bro.”

Another replied: “Bieber doesn’t even know what’s going on,” as a third wrote: “1000% is lmao.” “He definitely was,” another agreed. Justin has reportedly been told to “stay as far away as possible” from any P Diddy related news amid the rapper’s upcoming trial.
Justin and Comb’s friendship has come under scrutiny since the rapper was arrested. A source has told US Weekly that Justin was “advised to stay as far away as possible from anything and everything related to Diddy”. They added Justin wants “nothing to do” with Diddy, and claimed the Lonely singer, 30, is “in a hard place mentally”, adding that he was “completely disgusted” by the claims.
An insider claimed: “He [Justin] has such a history with Diddy and the allegations against him have been hard to process.” They added that Justin – who recently became a father after Hailey Bieber gave birth to their son – “wants to protect himself”.
“His happiness being a dad has outweighed his anxiety about Diddy,” the source continued. Justin has previously discussed his mental health issues and took a break from music to focus on his mental health. Speaking in 2020 on his YouTube documentary titled Justin Bieber: Next Chapter, the singer revealed he experienced “consistent” pain when he was at the peak of his fame as a teenager.
“There was times where I was really, really suicidal. Like, man, is this pain ever going to go away? It was so consistent, the pain was so consistent. I was just suffering, right? So, I’m just like, man, I would rather not feel this than feel this.” Justin has not personally spoken out about Diddy or his arrest and charges and has not been active on social media.
