Usher has explained why all of his tweets were deleted after conspiracy theories linked him to Diddy‘s sex trafficking and racketeering case.
Over the weekend, eagle-eyed fans noticed that all of the singer’s posts on X (formerly Twitter) had been wiped, leading to unfounded speculation that the move was somehow related to Puffy’s recent arrest.
“Account got hacked and damn y’all ran with it! [laughing face] See you tonight at Intuit Dome,” he wrote on Sunday (September 22), plugging his Past Present Future Tour stop in Inglewood, California later that night.

Usher and Diddy have a relationship going back more than 30 years, with the Bad Boy boss taking the R&B legend under his wing in the 1990s when he was a teen.
The Confessions crooner revisited his “pretty wild” experience living and working with Diddy during a 2016 interview with Howard Stern, revealing he witnessed “curious things” while staying at what was dubbed “Flavor Camp.”
“I moved to New York City and I lived with Sean ‘Puffy’ Combs for a year… in the ‘90s. Do you understand what that’s like?!” Usher said.
“I went there to see the lifestyle. And I saw it. But I don’t know if I could indulge and understand what I was even looking at. It was pretty wild. It was crazy. There were very curious things taking place and I didn’t necessarily understand it.”
Stern concluded the portion of the interview by asking: “You’re a dad now. Would you ever send your kid to a Puffy camp?”
“Hell no,” Usher bluntly replied.
In the complaint, Rod claimed that Diddy “informed him that he had engaged in sexual intercourse with” an unnamed rapper, an unnamed R&B singer and Bad Boy producer Stevie J.
An appendix described the R&B singer as an artist who “performed at the Superbowl [sic] and had a successful Vegas residency,” while the rapper was “a Philadelphia rapper who dated Nicki Minaj,” a thinly-veiled reference to Meek Mill.
Usher has yet to address the salacious claims, but Meek quickly shot them down and described the allegations as “sick.”
