In light of the allegations against Diddy, also known as Sean Combs, some fans are asking questions about an interview Usher did with Howard Stern in 2016. During the interview on Howard Stern, Usher went into detail about what it was like to live with Diddy when he was 14 years old.
At 14, Usher had already impressed L.A. Reid, a music producer who had ties to big names like Diddy’s. He sent Usher to live with Diddy, so he could see what it was like to live as a successful musician in the R&B and Hip-Hop lifestyle.

They called the education “Puffy Flavor Camp.” While with Diddy, Usher would learn the ropes and witness what came with success.
Usher said that he felt like the little brother while he was there. Everyone in the house called him Baby Boo.
He regularly hung out with big stars like Notorious B.I.G, Lil Kim, Mary J. Blige, and Faith Evans. When asked about what he saw there, though, Usher kept things vague.
Usher Regularly Partied Until 4 in the Morning
He said that he saw things that he didn’t necessarily understand. He was 14 years old at the time and was curious about some of the things he saw.
Howard joked that there must have been a lot of girls and big parties, and Usher said it wasn’t exactly always like that. Usher also said that these parties would sometimes go on until 4 in the morning, but even then, he’d be up past the other guys in the house. That said, he did say that some women approached him a few times despite his age.

He also didn’t have to do any chores. Instead, he was given a small amount of money that he could use each day. It kept him from going too wild, but it was enough to help him understand just how comfortable life was with money in hand.
Usher said the experience was wild, and there was a lot going on that he didn’t understand. When asked if he’d send his own kids to Puffy Flavor Camp, Usher replied with a very firm, ‘no.’
Recent Allegations Have Brought the Interview into the Spotlight
At the time of the interview, no one looked too much into Usher’s comments. With the recent allegations and Homeland Security raid against Diddy’s mansions, however, some fans are questioning this interview.
Diddy is facing lawsuits and allegations of physical and sexual abuse. Homeland Security also raided his multiple homes following allegations of human trafficking and illegal substance smuggling. Diddy has denied all allegations against him, saying that the people accusing him of abuse are just looking for money.

One of the most famous lawsuits against him is from his ex, Cassie. She dated Diddy for some time, and during that time, she claimed that he had physically harmed and SAed her. Others have also claimed that Diddy harmed them, with some even saying that he had forced them to become inebriated and then did things without their consent.
The fact that Usher was a minor and potentially exposed to things also raises eyebrows on some of the allegations made against Diddy. Some of the claims were about how Diddy had minors at parties. Whether Usher talks more about his experiences with Diddy, fans will have to wait and see.
