Justin Bieber Ready to ‘Get Back to Business’ Following Diddy Drama, Body Language Expert Says

Justin Bieber notoriously spent time with Sean”Diddy” Comb as a young teen. Now, the videos of Justin and Combs together might come back to haunt Justin in the wake of Combs’ arrest. Several insiders alleged that Justin was having a difficult time with the charges against Combs, though he hasn’t publicly spoken out. Here’s what a body language expert revealed about Justin now looking like he’s ready to “get back to business.”

Justin Bieber’s body language shows he’s ready to move forward after Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ arrest

Federal agents arrested Sean “Diddy” Combs in September 2024 after Homeland Security raided two of his homes in March 2024. The hip-hop mogul was hit with charges for sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and engaging in prostitution. Since his arrest, many additional lawsuits allege sexual assault and abuse.

Justin Bieber has not publicly spoken out regarding the allegations against Combs. Combs and Justin seemed to have a close relationship when Justin was a young teen. In 2009, a video showed Justin spending “48 hours” with Combs at Combs’ home. Several insiders alleged that Justin feels incredibly uncomfortable with old videos of him and Combs being brought to the surface amidst the allegations.

Body language expert Judi James told The Mirror US that Justin is seemingly trying to move forward now. Photos showed Justin in a Tesla Cybertruck with music video director Cole Bennett. The pop star sported a backward cap, orange sunglasses, and a loose-fitting button-down.

“There are some subtle but compelling clues here that Justin might be keen to move on and get back to business again,” James said. “First, there’s his styling. The tiny shades and the brimless beanie hat suggest less of a desire to hide than his bigger-brimmed hats he’s been wearing to hide his face recently. Then, there’s his body language. His chin is raised in a gesture of confidence and perhaps comfort in a raised visibility. And his lips appear slightly pursed, which can signal inner resolve and determination.”

The body language expert noted that Justin Bieber appeared to want to ‘hide’ a few days earlier

Justin Bieber might be ready to step out confidently now. However, body language expert Judi James noticed that he appeared to have a “desire to hide” when out with Hailey Bieber a few days earlier. Hailey stepped out in a gray suit and red tie while Justin walked behind her in an open plaid shirt and wide-brim hat.

“Bieber’s body language exudes an air of vulnerability and a subliminal desire to hide here,” James told The Mirror US of Justin walking behind Hailey and hiding his face. “This is not a huge change for the star, as he has tended to walk behind his wife with his head lowered in the past, looking much less sociable and confident than her, but here, that contrast between traits seems enormous.”

The singer is ‘breaking his silence’ to his friends on Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ arrest

Justin Bieber has yet to discuss Sean “Diddy” Combs’ arrest publicly. However, a source told In Touch Weekly that he’s finally opening up to those close to him.

“The last thing Justin wants to do is relive or even discuss his complicated friendship with Diddy,” the insider said. “But he’s finally breaking his silence to his friends about his nightmare experience and the private hell it’s caused him.”

The source added that Justin has a “hard” time with his connection with Combs “being dredged up.” However, he knows he can lean on his “massively supportive” wife, Hailey Bieber.
