Marc Jacobs accidentally posted a half naked photo of himself on his Instagram account. It was supposed to be sent to a male identity he was flirting with but, instead, it was revealed to the public! The fashion icon did take it down moments later but, unfortunately, someone was able to take a screenshot of it which led to the post being circulated throughout the internet.
Taking selfies has been a trend nowadays without exception to famous celebrities and fashion icons throughout the industry. While some are taken for the purpose of uploading them for the public to see, one of the most sought after lead designers, Marc Jacobs, accidentally published a photo of himself and his rear end on Instagram.
When Jacobs realized that the photo was posted publicly on his Instagram, he deleted the post moments after it was published. However, according to India Today, someone was able to take a screenshot and posted it to Gawker. Since then, the photo went viral.
According to Mirror, Jacobs did not intend to upload it publicly. According to him, it was intended as a personal message to a guy he met on Instagram while he was flirting with him. The photo showed Jacobs wearing his boxers around his ankles, revealing his rear end uncovered.
Since the rabbit was out of the hat, Jacobs went on his way and admitted to the deed. A comment thread grabbed for posterity by Paper Magazine showed conversations between several individuals talking about the said accidental post. According to E! Online, Jacobs then commented on the said thread saying: "I was flirting with someone I met on Instagram. Meant to send it by DM. Oops, my mistake. I apologize to anyone it offended. I'm a gay man. I flirt and chat with guys online sometimes. BIG DEAL!" Way to go, Jacobs! At least we get to see some decency from people in the business who openly admit to their mishaps.
Marc Jacobs is currently preparing for his Fall Campaign, designing clothes that would, yet again, enthrall the many individuals who see his designs as a work of art.
