Justin Bieber’s fans are suggesting that the lyrics from his 2021 song “Lonely” might be references to what allegedly happened between him and Diddy when he was underage.
In the song “Lonely,” from his 2021 album Justice, Justin sings, “And everybody saw me sick/And it felt like no one gave a s**t/ They criticized the things I did as an idiot kid.”
He also adds, “What if you had it all/ And it felt like nobody to call? Maybe then you’d know me/’Cause I’ve had everything/ But no one’s listening/ And that’s just lonely. I’m so lonely. Lonely.”
A few days after Diddy, 54, was arrested in New York in connection to a sex trafficking investigation, fans began to question the rapper’s relationship with Justin, now 30, during his teenage years, calling resurfaced footage of them together ‘creepy.’
One fan commented, “No one protected him. Not even his family. I absolutely adore this song,” while noting that the lyrics have always stood out to them. “I hope he can heal with time.”
Diddy is 24 years older than Justin, and resurfaced videos show Justin, who was 15 at the time, during Diddy’s documented ’48 hours’ spent with the young singer.

In the resurfaced clip, Diddy stands next to a teenage Justin and says to the camera, “He’s having 48 hours with Diddy, where we hanging out and what we’re doing we can’t really disclose.”
Diddy went on to say, “But it’s definitely a 15-year-old’s dream. I have been given custody of him. He’s signed to Usher and I had legal guardianship of him [Bieber] but for the next 48 hours he’s with me and we’re gonna go full crazy.”
In the video, Justin is seen smiling and looking up at Diddy as he speaks, occasionally adding remarks like ‘yeah’ and ‘full crazy.’
Fans labeled the clip as ‘disturbing’ and ‘creepy,’ suggesting that “these videos should resurface to highlight P Diddy’s unsettling behavior around a 15-year-old Justin Bieber.”
Khloe Kardashian remembered encountering Justin Bieber at one of Diddy’s celebrity-filled parties, where she mentioned that “half of the guests were naked.”
The 40-year-old reality star shared these comments during a 2014 episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, which has resurfaced following Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ arrest on sex trafficking charges.
