Usher has claimed that his account was “hacked” after his X posts all mysteriously disappeared.

Over the weekend, almost all of Usher’s posts, media and replies on his X account were gone.

On Sunday, Usher posted on X stating that he was “hacked.”

“Account got hacked and damn y’all ran with it!” he wrote in a post.

“See you tonight at Intuit Dome,” he added, referring to his sold-out show in Inglewood, California, on his Past, Present, Future tour.

Account got hacked and damn y’all ran with it! 😂😂😂 See you tonight at Intuit Dome ✌🏾👀✌🏾

On Monday morning, all of Usher’s posts appeared back on his account.

The incident came as Usher’s friend and former mentor Sean “Diddy” Combs was arrested on sex trafficking allegations.

Many have speculated that the incidents might be somehow tied to each other.

Dawn Richard of Danity Kane recently sued Usher and Ne-Yo, alleging that they witnessed Combs’ physical abuse of his ex Cassie Ventura.

Ventura, who dated Combs on and off between 2007 and 2018, filed a civil lawsuit against the music mogul last year, claiming he raped and abused her. Combs and Ventura settled one day later.

In May, a shocking surveillance video emerged that appeared to show Combs beating Ventura in a hotel hallway in 2016. Combs later apologized for his actions in a now-deleted Instagram video.

Following Combs’ homes both in Los Angeles and Miami being raided, an interview of Usher resurfaced where he talked about living with Combs when he was 14-years-old.

In an interview with Howard Stern in 2016, Usher said that he saw “very curious things” happen at Combs’ home back in the day.

“It was pretty wild. It was crazy. There were very curious things taking place and I didn’t necessarily understand it,” Usher said. “I got a chance to see some things … I don’t know if I could indulge and even understand what I was looking at.”

Back in 2004, Usher said in an interview with the Rolling Stone that “there were always girls around” when he was living with Combs.
