Justin Bieber proclaims he's ‘not among' Sean ‘Diddy' Combs' victims as rap mogul faces sex-trafficking trial
Justin Bieber said he was never a victim of accused sex abuser Sean 'Diddy' Combs, who helped the young singer break into the music industry when he was just 15 years old — ending his silence on the rumor amid the disgraced mogul's bombshell sex trafficking trial. 'Although Justin is not among Sean Combs' victims, there are individuals who were genuinely harmed by him. Shifting focus away from this reality detracts from the justice these victims rightfully deserve,' reps for Bieber, 31, told TMZ in a statement Thursday night. Multiple sources close to the 'Never Say Never' singer told the outlet that Combs, 61, never sexually or otherwise abused Bieber in any capacity — tamping down online speculation in light of Combs' sex trafficking trial this week. As Combs' trial in Manhattan federal court continues, celebrity watchers online turned back to several videos of the 'Bump, Bump, Bump' rapper and the then-teenage Bieber. In one of the videos, Combs makes a series of awkwardly phrased comments as the baby-faced Bieber stands awkwardly and increasingly flushed while looking at the camera. 'Right now [Bieber's] having 48 hours with his boy,' Combs said in a direct address to the camera. 'Where we're hanging out and what we're doing cannot really be disclosed,' he said, adding, 'For the next 48 hours, he's with me and we're gonna go buck full crazy.' In recent months, concern from fans has grown over the 'Yummy' singer's increasingly ramshackle appearance, flagrant drug use, and close to incoherent social media posts A video from last year showed a pre-arrest Combs briefly meeting with Bieber and exhibiting some odd body language that some online speculators believed was actually a pat-down for hidden wires. A resurfaced joint interview on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' has also raised eyebrows. 'He knows better than to be talking about the things that he does with big brother Puff on national television,' Combs said. 'Everything ain't for everybody.' The former producer for slain rapper Notorious B.I.G. is currently on trial in Manhattan federal court, where prosecutors with the Southern District of New York alleged he engaged in sex trafficking as part of his voracious need for 'freak offs.' In court Thursday, lawyers for the disgraced mogul claimed that the allegedly highly orchestrated 'freak offs' featuring Combs' then-girlfriend, pop-star Cassie Ventura, were merely part of the couple's 'swingers lifestyle.' Ventura has claimed that she was drugged, physically abused, raped, and forced to participate in the wild, baby oil-fueled sex romps at the command of Combs.

‘I don't go to a restaurant I can't walk or cycle to': The local gems Claudia Karvan loves most
Aussie acting royalty Claudia Karvan has starred in some of Australia's best films and television shows (Bump, The Secret Life of Us, Love My Way and yes, a Star Wars film, too, to name but a few). Most recently, it's her journey on the new series of the SBS show Who Do You Think You Are? that has her back on our screens, as she travelled to England, Cyprus and New Zealand to walk in the shoes of her ancestors. From a culinary perspective, Karvan's stepfather, Arthur, remains a huge influence − he introduced her to Greek cooking and opened the King's Cross nightclub Arthur's with her mother Gabrielle in Sydney in the 1970s. Karvan also lived in Bali when she was 10, and fell in love with Indonesian cuisine. A maternal lineage takes her to central Otago, where the hills are covered in wild thyme. 'It's the only other place in the world outside of the Mediterranean where thyme naturally occurs,' says Karvan. 'It really was exquisite − the smell is wonderful and comforting.' We sat down with Karvan to discuss her food favourites, at home and further afield.
