Overview
- This week Rolling Stone and other outlets reported that at least three longtime members of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ personal team have taken roles with Usher’s 56-date R&B Tour with Chris Brown.
- One hire is Kristina Khorram, Combs’ former chief of staff, though publications say her exact duties on the tour have not been disclosed.
- Federal prosecutors named Khorram as an alleged co‑conspirator during the SDNY case but she was never charged or called to testify and has denied the accusations.
- An immunity‑granted former Combs assistant who testified about managing a ‘Gucci pouch’ of drugs briefly worked for Usher before the tour parted ways with that employee.
- Usher’s camp and Khorram’s representatives declined to comment, and the staffing moves have raised fresh reputational and vetting concerns that could shape public scrutiny of the tour going forward.
