WIRE FOR NERVOUS DIDDY!

Checking Bieber for police bugs?

- 

ONETIME Diddy party pal Justin Bieber is finding it hard to outrun his murky past association with the disgraced rapand it sure isn't helping that an old video clip has surfaced showing Sean Combs patting down the pop star in what looks like an attempt to check for a police wire!

In the video believed to date back to 2021 -the rapper formerly known as Puff Daddy can be seen asking the Peaches singer something while they stand next to a black SUV. Justin shakes his head "no," and then the Bad Boy Records founder, 55, pats the younger chum's chest as if searching for something.

"Paranoia," pronounced one viewer online.

"Trying to play it safe, nothing more," commented another.
