Canadian Crooner, Justin Bieber, is obviously growing up fast. However, is the age enough to warrant him rude behavior of flaunting his private parts online? Recently, nude photos of Justin Bieber have surfaced on the web but the 18-year old teenage heartthrob is denying claims that he uploaded the photo on his own.

Given Justin had his laptop and camera stolen recently, the photos of him naked posted online could really be him. Yet, Manager Scooter Braun insists that the photos aren't of his 18-year old talent. In an exclusive interview, Scooter flatly denies all claims.

"[The] nudes are fake," said Braun.

For those who still haven't seen the photo, it simply shows a naked male torso with his privates exposed. The iconic part of the photo which has been tailed as Justin Bieber was the bird tattoo near the hip. If fans may recall, Justin had the same tattoo done as a mark-up of a Bieber which runs in Justin's father's side of the family.

Apart from Braun, "Beliebers" immediately shot to the defense of the 18-year old claiming that the photo was a fake. The tattoo could have been easily edited onto the lower torso. A few fans even claim that the belly button and nipples of the male on the photograph is in no way having a resemblance to Justin's lower torso.

Justin can clearly thank his fans for their support in such nude photo scandal. Given Justin did admit that "Believe" is the critical turning point of his career, his impressive fan base is definitely something to turn to in times of crisis.

"I'm 18 and I have a lot of insecurities. At the end of the day, being in my position doesn't get rid of those insecurities. I think (this album) is about proving people wrong and going out there and making good music, and going out there and performing better than everyone else," explains Justin on the Today show.

For now, the alleged nude photo of Justin Bieber has been taken down from several sites but it still manages to pop out of a few. Fans of Justin can simply hope that this would be the last nude scandal. Others, however, are simply waiting for a sex scandal given Justin's laptop and camera was stolen recently.
