Usher discusses industry’s ‘steaming underbelly’
Usher described the industry’s steamy underbelly, behind the glamorous glow, as “Sex is so hot in the industry, man. There was always girls around. You'd open a door and see somebody doing it, or several people in a room having an orgy. You never knew what was going to happen."
Diddy’s home was raided by Homeland Security who unearthed, arms like AR-15s, a thousand bottles of lubricants and various narcotics. He was also accused of organising Freak Offs with the help of his staff.
