A video resurfaced of Sean “Diddy” Combs giving then 15-year-old Justin Bieber a tour of his home, promising him gifts like a Lamborghini and mansion.
This came after federal raids on Combs’ homes for an investigation into sex trafficking, assault and drugs.
“When you get 16, you come down, you gotta, you know, wear a seatbelt and everything,” Diddy said. “The keys is yours when you, you know, when you get 16, you’re good to go. Then when you’re 18, you get the house. You get the mansion.”
In the video from 14 years ago, Combs tells Bieber he has legal guardianship and the two will have a wild 48 hours.
When asked what he wants to do, Bieber replies “let’s go get some girls.”
Combs said Bieber was “having 48 hours with Diddy, him and his boy, um, they’re having a times in their lives, like, like, like, you know, where we hanging out and what we doing, we can’t really disclose.”
“But um, it’s definitely a 15 year old’s dream,” Combs said. “You know, I have been given custody of him. You know, he’s signed to Usher. I had legal guardianship of Usher when, you know, he did his first album. I did his first album.”
“But for the next 48 hours, he’s with me,” he added. “And we’re gonna go full, buck-full crazy. Crazy. What do you want to do? What you want to do over the next 48 hours?”
“48 hours? Let’s go, um, let’s just go get some girls,” Bieber said. “Let’s go hang out with some girls.”
Combs approves, though Bieber was underage.
“A man after my heart, that’s what I’m talking about,” Combs said.
The video reemerged as Combs faces allegations of criminal acts, raising questions about his interactions with young musicians like Bieber.
