Several celebrities have found themselves in the spotlight due to NSFW leaks during their careers, similar to Selena Gomez’s recent accidental reveal.
This week, fans noticed something unexpected in the background of a photo Gomez posted on Instagram, which hinted at her private life with her fiancé Benny Blanco.
The 32-year-old singer has been in a public relationship with the music producer since December 2023, and they announced their engagement a year later.
The ‘Hands to Myself’ singer shared a series of photos on social media, captioned ‘a few memories…’, one of which had a bottle of KY jelly (lube) visible in the background.
Fans quickly took to social media to comment on the discovery. However, Gomez is not the only celebrity to have had such a mishap.
Let’s explore other notable instances where Hollywood stars experienced similar slip-ups.
Last year, British-Albanian singer Dua Lipa surprised fans with a NSFW bathroom selfie.
The provocative selfie showed her lifting her shirt to reveal her underwear in front of a mirror.
While Dua displayed her toned abs, stylish nails, and gold jewelry, what caught everyone’s attention were the noticeable handprints on the shower glass door.
One person commented, “Dua babe u weren’t alone in that shower.”
Tori Spelling’s accidental online exposure was not her doing; it was her husband Dean McDermott’s unintended mistake.
Instead of sharing a simple picture of their son, Dean accidentally posted one where Tori’s naked breasts were visible.
Tori, who was breastfeeding at the time, wasn’t upset about it.
“I would rather it happen now than any other time. When you are nursing, your boobs look better than ever, bold and beautiful. It’s like, what am I going to do?
“Dean was so devastated about it that I couldn’t be mad. I mean, it was genuinely an accident,” according to Closer.
Chrissy Teigen, a model from Utah, faced a temporary ban from Instagram after she accidentally uploaded a nude photo while under the influence of alcohol.
The image violated the platform’s nudity guidelines, prompting a response from Teigen on Twitter.
“S**t I didn’t think it was that bad but I’m on the wine,” she commented then. “It’s not a nipple it’s a shadow and it’s not a bush it’s a shadow oh god I just blew it up on my computer, I get what you mean.”
Back in 2016, RnB star Usher gave fans a mini Cribs-style tour of his home on Snapchat.
However, the tour concluded with him sharing a nude photo from his steam room.
He captioned the cheeky photo with ‘#blowinoffsteam’ and used an appropriately large emoji to cover himself.
In late 2023, Cardi B almost experienced a nip slip while sharing a photo from her bed.
The rapper posted a seductive picture on Twitter with her sheets barely covering her chest, and one side slipped slightly to reveal a bit of her areola.
The ‘Bodak Yellow’ artist may have done it intentionally, writing in her caption: “Fine as can be,” with a flame emoji.
This wasn’t the first time the 32-year-old shared more than intended, as she once posted a nude selfie on Instagram.
Cardi shrugged off criticism, writing on Twitter: “It is what it is. S**t happened. F**k it, it’s not even the first time. I used to be a stripper so whatever. Ay, dios mio.”
Fair point.
Actress AnnaLynne McCord thought she was sending a private message to a fan on Twitter but ended up posting a photo of her nipple instead.
She told the fan, “This is for you!” along with the picture and soon realized her mistake.
Later, she nonchalantly told reporters: “I am going to tweet myself naked all the time.”
Recall when Channing Tatum was dating Jessie J, and he had to post a nude selfie after losing a game.
Tatum wrote: “I lost a game of Jenga to Jessica Cornish. The loser (me) had to post a picture the other person (Jessica Cornish) picked… Smh and fml… I’m never playing Jenga with her ever again…”
Musician Tommy Lee, ex-husband of Pamela Anderson, posted a full-frontal nude image on Instagram.
Although he quickly deleted it, Lee later explained his actions.
He said: “A couple of weeks ago, we had like a two-week break off the tour, and I went on a motherf***ing bender. I got f***ing sideways as f*** and got naked and posted pictures of my d***.”
As one might.
Actor Chris Evans attempted to delete an accidental reveal of his private parts in 2020, but the internet acted too quickly.
The Captain America star was showing a screen recording of his family playing ‘Heads up’ on Instagram when the recording ended, exposing his camera roll and a revealing photo.
The image, appearing in the thumbnails, was quickly captured and circulated online.
Despite removing it swiftly, Evans took the situation lightly, later posting: “Now that I have your attention, VOTE Nov 3rd.”
