Why is this 15-year-old video featuring Justin Bieber and Sean Diddy Combs going viral?

A decade-old video featuring pop sensation Justin Bieber and disgraced music mogul Sean Diddy Combs has taken the Internet by a storm. The video, which is dated from 2011, Combs is seen joining the-then 16 year old Bieber on an episode of the popular talk show ‘ Jimmy Kimmel Live’. The pair was shown to joke around, and have several lighthearted moments. During a playful banter, the rapper refers to the ‘Boyfriend’ hitmaker as a “little brother,” but also cautions him to keep quiet about certain stuff which should be kept away from prying eyes and ears.

“He knows better than to be talking about the things that he does with big brother Puff on national television. Everything ain’t for everybody,” Diddy said.

Since Combs has been arrested for alleged sex trafficking, the video is now making waves for the wrong reasons.

In the video, Diddy described their relationship as "unusual," likening it to the dynamic of the reality TV pair Rob & Big. He conveyed a paternal warmth toward Bieber, viewing him as a "little brother" who freely seeks his advice whenever needed. “I mean, to a lot of us, he’s like a little brother," Combs said. ‘You know what I’m saying? He’s not afraid to call and ask for advice. He’s somebody that industry-wise, the record industry is a strong family. "He’s somebody that we definitely have our arms around, and we wanna protect him because he’s genuinely such a nice person besides his talents," the Bad Boy Records CEO said.

Another resurfaced "creepy" interaction between a 15-year-old Justin Bieber and Sean Combs has garnered renewed attention. In the clip, Combs mentioned, "He's spending 48 hours with Diddy, hanging out, but what we're up to can't really be revealed. It's definitely a 15-year-old's dream."

An anonymous insider close to Bieber revealed to Fox News that the young singer "should never have been permitted to party with Diddy or anyone else as a teenager," alleging that his parents "threw him to the wolves."

For those unfamiliar, Bieber was mentored by the influential music mogul at a young age, much like Usher, who first visited Diddy's home at the age of 13 and recalled witnessing some "pretty wild things." Following Diddy's recent arrest, Bieber has drawn significant attention due to his past connection with the rapper. This incident, coupled with another disturbing interaction between the two, has reignited public examination of Combs' contentious history.
