Diddy warns Justin Bieber not to talk about things he did with ‘big brother Puff’ in resurfaced clip

Sean “Diddy” Combs wanted Justin Bieber to keep what took place during their hangouts under wraps, according to a resurfaced “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” clip.

The disgraced music mogul appeared with the “Baby” singer on the late-night talk show in 2011 when the latter was just 16. They discussed their close bond with host Jimmy Kimmel at the time.

“What’s going on with you guys? Are you working together?” Kimmel asked in the clip, which is making the rounds online in light of Combs’ serious legal issues.

Sean “Diddy” Combs appeared with Justin Bieber on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” in 2011. 

The music mogul discussed his friendship with the teen singer on the late-night show. 
The former Bad Boy Records exec responded, “No … We’ve become friends in a strange way” before elaborating, “To a lot of us, he’s like a little brother … He’s not afraid to call and ask for advice.”

The “Bad Boy for Life” rapper explained that the music industry is “a strong family” and many people, including himself, wanted their “arms around” Bieber to “protect him” because he’s a “nice person.”

Combs continued to gush about the “Somebody to Love” singer, “Besides his talent, he’s one of the greatest kids that you could ever know.”

Bieber thanked the “Tell Me” rapper for his remarks as the audience clapped during the segment, and Kimmel, 56, pointed out that perhaps Combs could buy the young singer a car as he did with his son.

Combs claimed on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” that he and other music execs wanted to “protect” Bieber. 

Combs praised Bieber as “one of the greatest kids you could ever know.” 
“He got me a Lamborghini — I just haven’t gotten it yet,” the “Never Say Never” singer chimed in, prompting Combs to look off to the side in annoyance.

“He had the Lamborghini for a day or two and he had access to the house,” the “Last Night” rapper then said, seemingly referencing when the two spent 48 hours together, per a YouTube video Bieber posted.

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

When Combs and Bieber spent those two days together back in 2009, the “Coming Home” rapper told the “Beauty and the Beat” singer that they were “gonna go full buck full crazy.”

“Where we hanging out and what we doing, we can’t really disclose, but it’s definitely a 15-year-old’s dream,” Combs added in the YouTube video.

When Bieber tried to open up about a gift Combs allegedly promised, the rapper warned him not to say too much. 

“He knows better than to be talking about the things that he does with big brother Puff on national television,” Combs said at the time. 
Amid the former Sean John CEO’s sex crimes scandal, another clip of Combs with Bieber resurfaced online, which shows the latter appearing very uncomfortable at some of the former’s remarks.

Combs said in that second video, “Selling out arenas and everything? Starting to act different, huh? You haven’t been calling me and hanging out the way we used to hang out.”

Bieber is then seen awkwardly pulling out his phone and replying, “You tried to get in contact with me throughout all my [partners] and what not — but you never got my number, so want my number?”

A rep for the “Peaches” singer recently said, however, that while Bieber, now 30, is “aware of Diddy’s arrest and all the allegations,” he “just wants to focus on being a great dad and husband.”

Combs has been charged with sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation of a prostitute. He faces a minimum of 15 years and a maximum life sentence.

Combs was recently accused of sexually assaulting minors, causing people to take a closer look at his past friendship with Bieber. 
Attorney Tony Buzbee, who hosted the presser, warned that “many powerful people” are set to be exposed in connection to Diddy’s alleged misdeeds, claiming the names will “shock” the public.

Combs is awaiting his trial behind bars. No court date has been set yet.

As for Bieber, he tied the knot with Hailey Bieber in September 2018 and the two welcomed their first child in August 2024.
