'Yeah!' hitmaker Usher has raised eyebrows after wiping his Twitter clean following the arrest of his close associate and former mentor, Sean 'Diddy' Combs, and subsequent charges against him.
- September 23, 2024
AceShowbiz - Days after P. Diddy's arrest and charges of sex trafficking, his pal Usher's Twitter account was wiped clean of all posts, media, and replies. Only a few highlights remain, two of which appear to be from hackers promoting cryptocurrency scams.
Fans have expressed confusion and concern over the timing of the deletion, especially given Usher's ongoing "Past, Present, Future" tour. Some have speculated that the move is an attempt to distance himself from Combs' scandal.
Usher's relationship with Diddy has been under scrutiny since the arrest. In the past, Usher has described living with Diddy in New York as a teenager where he witnessed "curious things" and "orgies." He also admitted to experimenting with women but denied having sexual intercourse until he was 19.
While Usher has not been accused of any crimes, he has been mentioned along with Ne-Yo in lawsuits against Diddy as witnesses to physical abuse of Cassie.
Diddy has pleaded not guilty to the charges and is being held without bond. Usher, meanwhile, has remained silent on his pal's legal troubles.
Despite the unanswered questions surrounding Usher's Twitter deletion, it remains uncertain whether the move is related to the Combs scandal. Representatives for Usher have not yet responded to requests for comment.
