Earlier this week, designer Marc Jacobs had a little scandal when he accidentally uploaded a naked photo to his Instagram page with the caption, “It’s yours to try!” The image was meant to be kept private, but instead it was shown to his over 200,000 followers. The 52-year-old responded to the controversy in stride, saying, “Yeah. I accidentally posted a pic of my bare ass and took it down.” Jacobs elaborates, “I was flirting with someone I met on Instagram. Meant to send it by DM. Oops, my mistake. I apologize to anyone it offended. I’m a gay man. I flirt and chat with guys online sometimes. BIG DEAL!”
