As the entertainment industry reels from the arrest of music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering, high-profile celebrities, including Usher, P!nk, and Megan Fox, have mysteriously wiped their social media accounts, sparking widespread speculation.
Usher over the weekend, stunned fans by deleting his entire X (formerly Twitter) account, erasing over 7,000 tweets.
The timing of his digital purge, following Diddy’s arrest, fueled rumours that the R&B star was distancing himself from the scandal.
However, Usher swiftly shut down the speculation, claiming his account had been hacked. “Account got hacked and damn y’all ran with it!” Usher posted on his social media, adding, “See you tonight at Intuit Dome.”
Despite his denial, many online users remain skeptical. “He is making excuses, y’all…we know that was intentional,” one social media user commented. Another added, “Usher has wiped his entire Twitter history, erasing over 7,000 of his old tweets.”
Although Usher has not been implicated in any of the charges against Diddy, he and singer Ne-Yo were reportedly mentioned as witnesses to Diddy’s alleged assault on his then-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura.
Usher’s history with Diddy dates back to the early 1990s when the young artist worked closely with the mogul.
Shortly after Usher’s account purge, singer P!nk followed suit by deleting nearly all of her X posts, leaving only two retweets from 2016 and 2017.
Like Usher, P!nk has no known connection to Diddy’s legal troubles, and fans were quick to speculate about the reason behind her sudden social media cleanse.
However, some pointed out that P!nk had begun removing her posts months before Diddy’s arrest, suggesting her decision might be unrelated to the current controversy.
Adding further fuel to the speculation, actress Megan Fox also wiped her Instagram and Twitter feeds clean, igniting more rumours that her social media erasure could be linked to Diddy’s arrest.
The internet buzzed with theories, with some fans speculating about her ties to the Hollywood elite and their possible connections to Diddy’s notorious parties.
One online user remarked, “Not surprised @meganfox is involved with @Diddy. Another freak pushing her freak ideologies on her sons.” Another comment read, “Megan Fox is the latest to join the social media erasure brigade.”
Diddy, who has been in the entertainment industry since the 1990s, is notorious for hosting what have now been labeled as “freak off” parties. These infamous gatherings reportedly lasted for days, with prosecutors alleging that Diddy used violence and threats to force women into drug-fueled orgies with male escorts.
While Diddy faces serious allegations, neither Usher, P!nk, nor Megan Fox have been implicated in his legal troubles.
Nonetheless, their synchronised social media actions have left fans and observers questioning the motives behind their digital detoxes, as tensions run high within the entertainment world.
The arrest of Sean “Diddy” Combs has sent shockwaves through Hollywood, with attention now turning to his powerful connections within the industry.
Interestingly, while some celebrities have erased their online presence, others, like Jennifer Lopez (J.Lo), who dated Diddy in the early 2000s, have made no changes to their social media profiles.
As the legal case against Diddy unfolds, the music industry remains on edge, with many high-profile celebrities staying silent or distancing themselves from the mogul, raising more questions than answers in the court of public opinion.
