Fans confused as Usher deletes entire X history following Diddy’s arrest

Fans were left confused when Usher removed all of his posts from X (formerly Twitter), just days after his friend and mentor, Sean “Diddy” Combs, was arrested on sex trafficking charges.

By Sunday, the “My Boo” singer’s tweets, media, and replies had all vanished from his account.

Only a few highlighted posts remain on Usher’s profile, but two of them appear to be from hackers, promoting cryptocurrency scams.

Many fans were curious about why the 45-year-old R&B star wiped his profile clean, especially as he’s in the midst of his much-anticipated Past, Present, Future tour.

“Nobody on Usher’s team said ‘deleting 7K posts is going to look crazy as hell given the circumstances,'” asked one user.

“Whoa. Apparently @Usher has deleted his entire Twitter /@X history Why would someone high profile do that?” added another.

“Usher scrapping his entire Twitter history says everything we need to know,” said a third fan.

Later on Sunday, Usher responded to the deleted posts, claiming his account had been hacked.

“Account got hacked and damn y’all ran with it!” he wrote on X alongside crying face emojis.

“See you tonight at Intuit Dome,” Usher added, referring to his upcoming show in Inglewood, California.

Fans have also speculated about Usher’s relationship with Combs, 54, in light of the Bad Boy Records founder’s arrest.

Though Usher is not implicated in any illegal activity, both he and Ne-Yo were reportedly witnesses to Combs’ physical abuse of singer Casandra “Cassie” Ventura, as mentioned in Dawn Richard’s lawsuit against the rapper.

Usher had lived with the “Act Bad” rapper in New York during the ’90s, when he was around 14 or 15, to learn about the music business.

In a 2004 Rolling Stone interview, the “Love In This Club” singer revealed that “it was always girls around” while living with Combs.
