James Charles has posted a nude photo of himself after getting hacked this weekend.

The 20-year-old YouTube star revealed his social media account had been compromised on Saturday morning (August 24) after fans noticed some very strange activity.

Apparently, his Twitter was flooded with offensive tweets which have now been deleted. But, after getting back control of his account, Charles realised his hackers might have been able to access his personal photos, which he claims included one single nude.

So, he made the proactive decision to leak the pic himself so no one could "threaten" him with it later.

"hi I got my account back," Charles wrote alongside an NSFW photo that showed off his butt. "just case I ever get hacked again, here's the ONLY nude I've ever taken! can't threaten me with it now get a life."
