Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs was a mentor to Justin Bieber when the singer was just starting out in his career, but their relationship is being scrutinized after the rapper’s arrest
Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs has come under fire for his friendship with Justin Bieber when the singer was just a teenager.

P Diddy acted as a mentor for Justin when the Never Say Never hitmaker was starting out in his career. Justin shot to fame when he was just 15 years old and met Diddy thanks to his connection to Usher.

Following Diddy’s arrest in September on sex trafficking charges, which he has vehemently denied and pled not guilty to, his relationship with Justin has been scrutinized online. Neither Justin nor Usher have been implicated in any of the claims against Diddy. Former Playboy model Precious Muir, who attended Diddy’s notorious parties, has now told The Mirror US she believes Justin should have been “protected”.

Precious suggested Justin’s parents “should have been present at all times” as he was only a child entering into the entertainment industry. Diddy has not been accused of any wrongdoing toward Justin.

There have been reports that there were other children present at Diddy’s parties. Precious alleged she saw children while attending the daytime part of one of P Diddy’s White Parties.

She told us: “There is no way that their parents should have left their children with this man by themselves. So that itself should have been in there. The parents should have been present.

“I don’t know why the parents weren’t there and protecting their child.” She then alleged those close to Diddy were unlikely to step in and look out for the children.

She alleged: “Nobody around Diddy is going to say, ‘No you can’t do that.’ So you need to be there to protect your child. It’s very strange to me that the parents dropped them off at this camp and picked them up whenever he decided it was time for them to go home, or whatever the case may be.”

The “camp” Precious referenced was something Usher has referred to as “Flavor Camp”. Usher was sent to stay with Combs by L. A. Reid in 1994 after signing to Reid’s LaFace Records.

Precious then suggested that if a parent couldn’t be present while their child was with Diddy, then a manager should have been with them. She continued: “You get so many young stars who grow up in the industry and become crazy.

“They have lost their whole minds now as adults, they’re not even functioning as adults because of what abuse they went through when they were children, when they were child stars. And that is because they didn’t have the support of somebody, a parent, a guardian, somebody who is going to be on their side to protect them and that’s what needs to be done now.” There are no accusations that Diddy has done any wrongdoing toward Justin.

Speaking about Diddy in particular, Precious said: “Don’t just let some guy who you barely know who’s convinced you that it’s going to be okay. Because he’s good at that.”

The former model continued: “Don’t let this man convince you that it’s okay for him to be hanging out, or your young child sleeping over at this grown man’s house.” She then alleged Diddy is “very good at convincing people to do things that they probably didn’t want to do.” Diddy is not being accused of any wrongdoing toward Justin
