Megyn Kelly calls out Justin Bieber and Ashton Kutcher for staying silent on Sean 'Diddy' Combs' arrest

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Megyn Kelly questioned why Sean "Diddy" Combs' high-profile associates like Ashton Kutcher, Justin Bieber, and Usher have stayed silent following the music mogul's recent arrest.

The 54-year-old was taken into custody in New York on Monday, September 16, and charged with racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation for purposes of prostitution. 

Megyn Kelly says it would show leadership if those in Sean 'Diddy' Combs' close circle spoke out

On a recent episode of 'The Megyn Kelly Show', Megyn Kelly said, "Justin Bieber ... they're not alleging his name in any of this, but Justin Bieber was very young when he came into Diddy’s circle. There's no question, he had a lot of exposure to this guy, and I think he should say something."

Acknowledging the complexities of the situation, the conservative commentator emphasized that if Bieber had indeed been a "victim," it would be challenging for him to come forward.

"It's very hard to go out and say this has happened to you, but if he was a victim, God forbid, I encourage him to do it. You need someone strong like that to break the dam," remarked Kelly. 

She further highlighted the importance of leadership in these troubling times, noting, "If you actually had an Usher, a Bieber, or someone like an Ashton Kutcher — I don't think he was an abuse victim, but he was good friends with Diddy for a long time — come out and say what they know, it would show leadership, and it would give the others who are on this list permission and the security of not being the only one that has to worry about retribution."

This call for accountability comes in the wake of resurfaced footage where Diddy cryptically boasts about spending two days with a then-minor Bieber, raising alarms about their interactions.

In the clip, Diddy is reportedly heard saying, "He's having 48 hours with Diddy, where we hanging out and what we're doing we can't really disclose. But, it's definitely a 15-year-old's dream." 

Justin Bieber deeply 'disturbed' over Sean 'Diddy' Combs' arrest 

Sean "Diddy" Combs and Justin Bieber have been friends since the 'Baby' singer's teenage years when he rose to global fame.

An insider revealed to Daily Mail that Bieber, who was once mentored by the hip-hop mogul, is struggling to process the shocking accusations brought against Diddy and feels utterly disoriented given that he collaborated with him less than a year ago.

Bieber featured on the track 'Moment' from Diddy's 2023 album, 'The Love Album: Off the Grid'. 

The source added, "Bieber is so disturbed by the Diddy news and is unwilling to process it or discuss it, so he has shut off. So many people who helped to make him who he is were very close to Diddy and it has completely thrown him."

The indictments against Diddy allege that he abused and coerced his victims for years, employing violence and extortion to maintain control. Denied bail, he awaits trial in Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center.
