Mary J. Blige’s recent comments are stirring up a lot of controversy among her fans.
The Grammy-winning singer took to Instagram on Monday to post a message with a hidden meaning. It read: “Unfortunately a lot of you all knew me when I was lacking boundaries and a people-pleaser. Let me reintroduce, I burn the bridges when necessary.
Many fans responded in the comments section. They began to link the R&B singer’s timely post with Sean “Diddy Combs”, whose homes were searched Monday as part of a federal investigation into human trafficking.
Blige and Combs’ relationship dates back many decades. Her first two albums were “What’s The 411?” The rapper produced “My Life” and “What’s the 411?” in the 1990s.
One follower commented, “I feel this is about a specific individual,” on Blige’s post. “I’m going to sit back and just watch.”
Another wrote: “Perfect timing as Diddy is being raided right now!! ”

“Mary said… The Feds asked me and I spoke… I’m not going down with you guys …,” Another fan wrote.
An official in the United States confirmed that Combs’ home raids were part of a federal investigation into human trafficking.
The agency announced on Monday that Homeland Security Investigations New York had executed law enforcement measures as part of an ongoing investigation with the assistance of HSI Los Angeles and HSI Miami. We will update you as soon as we have more information.
Combs’ attorney, Aaron Dyer, stated that “no criminal or civil liability has been found with these allegations.” Combs will fight to clear his name every day.
Combs was the subject of numerous legal disputes in the past. The most recent one involved a sexual abuse lawsuit brought by Rodney Jones (known professionally as Lil Rod).
Jones filed a lawsuit against Combs for sexual assault in February. He listed Yung Miami, the rapper’s latest girlfriend, in an updated complaint he filed on Monday. Jones claimed that she was paid by Combs as a sex worker and provided him with drugs.
Combs’ legal staff slammed Jones as a “complete lie.”
“Lil Rod was nothing but a liar, who filed a $30-million lawsuit in a shameless attempt to get a payday that he did not deserve. Shawn Holley, Combs’ lawyer, said that Combs was only trying to get headlines by mentioning events that were pure fiction.
“We have overwhelming and indisputable evidence that his claims are lies. Tyrone Blackburn has refused to return our phone calls, despite our attempts to show him this proof. We will take appropriate legal action against anyone who makes these outrageous allegations.”
