Pop Star Usher Wipes Twitter X Account Clean of All Posts Following Sean Diddy Combs Arrest

Share

R&B and pop star Usher’s 11.5 million fans on Twitter are getting a rude awakening this morning.

It’s gone.

The account is still there but all the posts have been wiped clean.

His Instagram is still in place but with pictures from his current tour, sold out through the fall.

But Usher’s move today feels like it’s connected to the arrest and scandal surrounding Sean P Diddy Combs. Diddy is locked up in a dirty Brooklyn jail cell after accusations of sexual malfeasance that makee the hair stand up. Usher was a child star groomed and launched by Diddy in the 90s. Diddy was actually his legal guardian. There is a lot of gossip and speculation on the web now about their relationship, and what Usher may have seen or experienced over the years.

There’s also a lot of talk about Justin Bieber, who was then mentored as a child by Usher. Bieber at 15 spent a lot of time with Diddy, all recorded on video, by themselves. In recent years, Bieber has had a number of mental health issues. He’s dropped out of a couple of tours, and stopped recording.

Of course, one person who might shed some light on all of this is Scooter Braun, who managed Bieber and promoted all these relationships. This year Braun dropped out of managing artists entirely so he could be part of KPop’s Hybe company. But Braun is where all roads lead back to.

Meantime, Usher’s feed is gone, with all his comments and all of his fans.
