Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" music video director Joseph Kahn posted on Twitter to make fun of the hackers' threats to post nude pictures of the pop star.
In the tweet, Kahn wrote that he felt violated since his account was hacked and the hackers published his confidential selfie. The director also shared a photo of a shirtless muscled guy along with the post. Kahn's message is reportedly pertaining to the rumors that Swift has a string of naked pictures that has been hacked.
Swift countered the rumors and tweeted "PS any hackers saying they have 'nudes'? Psssh you'd love that wouldn't you!" The "Blank Space" singer added that the hackers can enjoy doing Photoshop because they actually do not have any naked pictures.
The said hacking started when two unknown accounts tweeted to the over 71 million followers of Swift and claimed that they are connected with the hackers dubbed as Lizard Squad. The hackers announced that they are going to publish nude images of the pop star once their bitcoin account received a total of $800, Daily Mail reported.
As a result, Swift responded via Twitter and wrote "Cause the hackers gonna hack, hack, hack, hack, hack..." Other than that, the singer is also known for using the micro blogging site Tumblr to connect to her fans.
Swift assured her fans on Tumblr by saying that Twitter has started to delete the tweets from the hacker and locked her account. Twitter will also investigate the incident and she is waiting to have new passwords. The singer added that there is no uninteresting moment for her.
Aside from Twitter, the singer's Instagram was also hacked. The hacker posted a snapshot encouraging Swift's fans to follow @trash on Twitter. The Instagram account @trash posted a picture of what appears to be an access to Swift's account.
The hacker's alleged Instagram account is still up and running while the Twitter posts about the hacking incident have been erased. Reports say that hackers are targeting Swift due to her sweet image and huge number of fans. It would reportedly be big news if hackers publish the alleged nude images.
Amidst hacking incidents, Swift continues to shine as she is nominated for three awards for her song "Shake It Off" on the 57th Grammy Awards this Feb. 8.
