Usher, whose full name is Usher Raymond IV, has drawn criticism for deleting all of his content from his Twitter site after Sean “Diddy” Combs, with whom he had a long connection, was arrested

Diddy was taken into custody at a Brooklyn jail on Monday after being accused of a number of crimes, including sex trafficking and racketeering.

In a past interview, Usher discussed his time with Diddy and acknowledged that, while visiting the music mogul’s house, he saw “very curious things.”.

Usher’s decision to erase his whole X account has left many perplexed, especially because his previous legal guardian, Diddy, is facing serious allegations linked to prostitution and sex trafficking.

Although the reason for the singer’s decision to delete his social media pages is unknown, some have speculated that it may have something to do with Diddy’s arrest given the timing of the action.

During Diddy’s early career, Usher collaborated with him on some projects.

Usher’s first studio album, “Usher,” was produced by Diddy, who was also rumored to have taken the singer under his legal guardianship. 

Due to the current scandals and problems surrounding Diddy, many celebrities who were formerly connected to the disgraced rapper are now being investigated for their past involvement.

Fans on social media now view Usher’s choice to delete his tweets as highly dubious in light of this development. However, Usher’s Instagram account is still online and stays unaltered.

But Usher isn’t the only one who scrubs content from the internet; artist P!nk also erased all of her tweets on Sunday, and fans are connecting it to Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ arrest from last week.

Although there isn’t much discussion about Pink and her relationship with Diddy, people will undoubtedly fill in the blanks thanks to social media

Here are a few tweets from X.
