Aussie singer Sia posted her nude photo on her Twitter and Instagram page on Monday night after finding out that someone was trying to sell her nude photos to her fans. The photo was taken from far away without her consent. 

In the photo, Sia had her back to the camera and on a balcony. The photo she released is a screenshot of the "client preview" watermarked photo with the seller's offer. The message said, "If you make the purchase it will be unblurred and you will receive and additional 14 images."

Fortunately, none of her fans were scammed into this, but instead, they notified Sia of what was happening. 

The 41-year-old singer posted her nude photo on social media and captioned it, "Someone is apparently trying to sell naked photos of me to my fans. Save your money, here it is for free. Everyday is Christmas."
