Justin Bieber Prioritizes Family, Steps Back from Sean “Diddy” Combs’ Influence

A source told PEOPLE exclusively that the musician, 30, is keeping things centred around his wife, Hailey Bieber, and their baby son, Jack Blues, whose birth was announced last month.

“He’s aware of Diddy’s arrest and all the allegations,” the source tells PEOPLE, referring to the 54-year-old rapper’s Sept. 16 arrest following recent sex trafficking and sexual assault lawsuits.

“It’s not anything that he wants to focus on, though,” the source adds of Justin.

The insider notes that the “Peaches” singer has instead “been in a happy bubble since baby Jack was born.

“He just wants to focus on being a great dad and husband,” they add.

Diddy was arrested at a New York City hotel on 16 September after he was indicted by a grand jury.

Following the arrest, U.S. Attorney Damian Williams released a statement that Diddy had been taken into custody by federal agents based on a then-sealed indictment. Unsealed the following day, it revealed that the rapper-producer was charged with sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution.

At the time of Diddy’s arrest, his lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, said in a statement to PEOPLE that his client is “an innocent man with nothing to hide.

We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” Agnifilo said.

“Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children, and working to uplift the Black community. He is an imperfect person but he is not a criminal.”

Justin announced the arrival of his and Hailey’s son on Friday, Aug. 23.

At the time, the musician shared a shot of the little one’s foot on Instagram. “WELCOME HOME JACK BLUES BIEBER,” he captioned the post.

A source close to Justin recently told PEOPLE that he and his model-entrepreneur wife, 27, are “both overjoyed” about being first-time parents.

The source also said that the “baby is such a miracle” and “the pregnancy was something that they very much wished and prayed for.

“The day they found out that Hailey was pregnant was the best ever for Justin. He was over the moon with excitement. It was a big celebration for them,” they said, adding that “Justin’s already a great dad.”

Yvonne Jegede Criticizes ‘Small-minded’ Nedu Wazobia for Discussing Her

Nollywood actress Yvonne Jegede has publicly criticized media personality Nedu Wazobia for his recent remarks about her, in response to her public apology for statements made on The Honest Bunch Podcast.

On June 13, 2024 Instagram post, Jegede shared a photo of Nedu and publicly criticized him, labeling him as narcissistic and toxic.

She wrote, “I woke up to see Nedu’s post reacting to my appearance on the podcast, particularly my apology to May Edochie and women in general. I understand Nedu’s difficulty in comprehending my apology.

Narcissistic and toxic men like him cannot grasp the importance of apologising when others feel hurt by your actions, regardless of whether you believe you are right or wrong.”

In her detailed post, Jegede was direct, accusing Nedu of actively promoting negative narratives about women. She also went on to claim that he harbored a dislike for women and their achievements.

“Small-minded people like you rejoice when women attack each other or are trampled upon. Check the history of your podcast; it is filled with content targeting women’s self-esteem. Perhaps the rumour about you is true—you don’t like women! Nedu, there’s nothing wrong with women winning and shining; it doesn’t diminish you or any other man.”

The actress continued by criticizing Nedu for what she saw as his lack of support. She accused him of not promoting her movie “A Father’s Love” during her podcast appearance.

“You are so evil that you didn’t even promote A Father’s Love, the movie I came to discuss on your show. Instead, you were all over my WhatsApp, telling me how much you like me, and now you join the mob and chase clout with your petty posts. I was raised to apologise if I was wrong and to those who felt hurt by my actions,” Jegede continued.

She also said, “If I didn’t own what I said with conviction, I wouldn’t come out to apologise when it was pointed out that some women and May felt offended. My apology was directed at those who clearly expressed their hurt. Take all the money you want from Facebook and YouTube, but posterity always judges those who stand against women and profit at the expense of others. A small-minded man like you will never understand the need for an apology, even when he is wrong.”

The conflict arose when Jegede appeared on the podcast and later publicly apologized to actress May Edochie and women in general for her previous remarks. Initially, she had expressed support for actor Yul Edochie marrying Judy Austin as a second wife to May, citing irony in the public backlash given that some critics came from polygamous backgrounds.

In her apology, she clarified that she did not intend to downplay May’s concerns but rather aimed to emphasize the prevalence of polygamy in Nigerian society. Jegede also promptly apologized for her comments made during the podcast.

In response, Nedu then voiced his opinion on social media, saying, “If you talk, use your chest to stand by your words. Still Number 1.”

Diddy Expresses Concern for His Children’s Well-being, Seeking Urgent Communication

According to sources close to the family, his main concern while in his 10 ft. x 8 ft. cell is his children.

Although Diddy is holding up well considering the circumstances, he’s reportedly desperate to speak to his seven children. The family’s close circle are leaning on one another and turning to faith for strength, particularly after his shocking arrest earlier this week.

Diddy has seven children – Quincy, Justin, Christian “King”, Chance, twins D’Lila and Jessie, and two-year-old Love. While some of his children are adults, the younger ones, especially 17-year-old twins D’Lila and Jessie, are currently staying with a friend of their late mother, Kim Porter, in Los Angeles.

The arrest has hit the family hard, with Diddy’s eldest sons, Justin and Christian, attending his bail appeal hearing, where a judge denied his bond request, deeming him a danger. Despite having no bail set and being placed on suicide watch, Diddy is said to be focused on his kids, hoping to contact them soon.

At MDC Brooklyn, Diddy has limited privileges, including just one hour of recreational time and three showers per week. While family and friends are permitted to visit periodically, it’s unclear how often he can communicate with them.

Diddy Accuser’s Ex Alleges $3 Million Bribe Offer to Support Rape Claims

Recall that Thalia Graves had filed a lawsuit against Diddy, 54, and former bodyguard Joseph Sherman, alleging that they raped her in 2001 and that the music mogul recorded the incident.

In her complaint, Graves says she met Diddy through her then-boyfriend who worked as an executive at Bad Boy Records.

Now, TMZ claims to have reviewed a 2023 text exchange between Graves and her ex-boyfriend where she mentions suing Diddy “because he’s the one that has the money,” and allegedly appears to offer him money for support after asking him if he’s seen the alleged video of her assault.

What do you n$3 mil?” Graves allegedly wrote in the text message.

The ex-boyfriend reportedly confirmed the texts to TMZ, telling the publication that he viewed them as a bribe attempt, and subsequently blocked Graves’ phone number and her social media accounts.

Lawyers for Diddy are said to also have copies of the alleged text conversation.

“It is very common that rich powerful men and their supporters attempt to discredit, shame, and humiliate accusers who have the courage to come forward,” Graves’ attorney Gloria Allred tells Complex.

“The complaint speaks for itself. Our client is looking forward to her day in court.”

Last week, former bodyguard Joseph Sherman, a.k.a “Big Joe,” denied knowing Graves or working for Diddy at the time of the alleged sexual assault.

The music mogul, 54, is currently behind bars at the Metropolitan Detention Centre in Brooklyn, New York after he was indicted for sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for the purpose of prostitution earlier last month.

I’m not questioning her integrity. I’m questioning her claims against me,” Sherman told Sarah Wallace for WNBC. “I wasn’t the head of his security. You got the wrong man. I’ve never seen you. I’ve never did anything negative with you. I’ve never been in the same room with you.

Speculation is swirling on social media about VeryDarkMan’s purported acquisition of a multi-million naira Mercedes Benz AMG.


"Rumors Emerge Over VeryDarkMan's Alleged Mercedes Benz Purchase Amid ₦180 Million NGO Fund Controversy"

“Rumors Emerge Over VeryDarkMan’s Alleged Mercedes Benz Purchase Amid ₦180 Million NGO Fund Controversy”

This comes in the wake of allegations that ₦180 million has been misappropriated from a ₦200 million NGO fund.

The situation gained attention through a post shared by a user on the popular platform X (formerly known as Twitter).

The post was a reaction to reports indicating that VeryDarkMan had lost ₦180 million due to a hack on his NGO website.

In response, the influencer voiced skepticism, noting that shortly after the news of the alleged theft broke, rumors began circulating about VeryDarkMan’s purchase of a Mercedes Benz AMG.

The influencer’s statement read: “VeryDarkMan said ₦180 million is missing because his NGO site was hacked. Today, we heard he bought a Mercedes Benz AMG. My question is: Is the money in a bank account opened for the NGO, or was it on the website? Please explain to us like we’re in primary school.”

He further called on VeryDarkMan to clarify where the money was stored-whether it was in the NGO’s bank account or on the website.

The post exploded, with a wave of worried comments pouring in. People were eager to share their thoughts.

Let’s take a look at some of the reactions:

@Engr_Ashile: “Money can make anybody do whatever they preach against.”

@buzzedison: “What I have been wondering. The money cannot be sitting on a website.”

@Ashabul_Jannaah: “If I speak my mind now, they’ll say it’s because I don’t like him. But honestly, 160 million missing and a Benz showing up? Even primary 2 pupils would ask for an explanation. Transparency isn’t too much to ask.”

@VivaDido: “They can’t hack his bank account through his website. Websites do not hold money, but can only be used to set a payment gateway. For money to be stolen, it has to be directly with the bank and the information for such would only be with the acct holder, not in the website.”
