When gay photos showing a guy who allegedly resembles the One Direction singer were leaked online, fans went into frenzy. The singer was supposedly snapped in an uncompromising gay situation which sparked rumours of his homosexuality. However, taking to social media Twitter, Liam Payne bashed speculations and claimed the photos were fake. He also addressed reports of his homosexuality and claimed that he is "not gay."

Mirror UK reports the 21-year old singer slammed gay rumours and also laughed off the photographs on Twitter. The singer tweeted, "Wow as if people think that weird photo going around is actually me lol think I'd rather tweet a full frontal than have people look at that."

However, Liam Payne's tweet reportedly raised eyebrows. According to E! Online, his statement landed him in turmoil with fans who questioned whether he has a problem with homosexuality. To which the singer was again quick to address. On his Sept. 21 tweet Liam said, "I'm 100% not homophobic. But I'm also 100% not gay so when somebody says I am I'm gunna say I'm not which does not make me a homophobe."

The photos in question pertain to a grainy snap of a man resembling Liam Payne while in bed with another man. The look-alike was totally naked except for the black cap he wore on his head. He also had his hand on his crotch while staring straight at the camera. The gay images were reportedly leaked on Saturday and Liam Payne quickly denied his involvement on Sunday.

E! reports fellow One Direction singer Harry Styles also became the subject of gay rumours back in 2013. A British GQ interview questioned the singer's sexual orientation, when he was asked of his relationship with DJ and TV host Nick Grimshaw. However, the 20-year old was reportedly pretty confident when he confirmed he wasn't "bisexual"

Additionally, Niall Horan also had his share of gay claims according to a previous article from the International Business Times. The singer was reportedly caught on video kissing another guy during his 21st birthday bash at a Las Vegas nightclub. There were even speculations that he had kissed Harry Styles who was apparently not in the party. But Niall Horan was also quick to deny the allegations on Twitter saying, "all these rumours huh? you guys Crack me up."

Furthermore, the suspected Harry Styles lookalike was confirmed to be One Direction songwriter Julian Bunetta. Likewise, the video below doesn't really confirm speculations that Niall was kissing another guy. Reports claimed they could just have been yelling into each other's ears while talking over the loud music.
