Justin Bieber Removes Nude Butt Pic and Apologizes: I'm Sorry If I Offended

The "Baby" singer doesn't want to make his little fans uncomfortable.

Hopefully Beliebers saved that butt pic Justin Bieber posted last week because they may not see another one.

The 21-year-old pop star took down an Instagram photo of him posing completely nude while on vacation, and was quick to give his reasons.

"Hey, I Deleted the photo of my butt on Instagram not because I thought it was bad but someone close to me's daughter follows me and she was embarrassed that she saw my butt," he captioned a pic of himself fully clothed on Sunday. "And I totally wasn't thinking in that aspect. And I felt awful that she felt bad. To anyone I may have offended I'm so sorry."

His apology also came with an explanation as to why he posted the butt shot in the first place. "It was completely pure-hearted as a joke but didn't take in account there are littles following me!!!" the caption continued. "Love u guys."

While Bieber's fans were quite supportive of him posting a nude pic -- the photo got more than 600,000 likes and nearly 200,000 comments in less than an hour of going up -- they also had the "Baby" singer's back when he decided to take down the image.

"That's okay, it is so beautiful that you deleted that for a little girl... So cute," one fan responded. "Anyways, I am so proud of you for deleting that because you wanted to, and not because some stupid people didn't like it."
