1D Styles denies naked photo is him

A rep for One Direction has reportedly denied that a photo doing the rounds on the internet showing a mop topped guy with his pants pulled down is the ‘X-Factor’ group’s Harry Styles.

The photo is one of those shots taken on a phone pointed at a mirror, meaning the reflection of the flash conveniently obscures the protagonist’s face, though whoever first posted the shot on the net – via Twitter I think – claimed it was the boy band star.

Fans online, possibly with too much times on their hands, have since undertaken forensic investigations to convince themselves the cock shot is genuine: it’s his hair, he’s wearing the silver dog tag chain thing he wore on ‘X-Factor’, the bathroom where the picture is taken looks like the one in the house where ‘X’ contestants stay, boxer short shots clearly show the pop teen is well endowed, that Styles liked to get naked was a running gag on the talent show etc etc etc. There was also a rumour that One Direction’s management tried to have the tweet that originally linked to the photo taken down, which, if true, might suggest it’s the real deal.

You’re not interested in seeing the photo at the centre of the debate of course, so there’s no need to check this blog here. And you’ve not got time to examine the “proof” it’s the real deal, though fans on a gay chat room called FM Forums seem to have gone to the most lengths to convince you it is.

But take note, Styles insists that the half-naked guy in the photo is some other mop-topped dude who likes exposing his genitals for the camera – and to be fair, if the internet has taught us anything, it’s that lots of mop-topped dudes who like exposing their genitals for the camera exist.
