Selena Gomez's title as the most followed person on Instagram was put into danger yesterday as her account was deactivated following the posting of nude photos of her ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber.
Gomez's followers first noticed the hack yesterday evening, as previously released photos of Justin Bieber nude during a 2015 Bora Bora trip were posted to her account.

Fans then kept tabs on the account as it went through various changes, at first changing bios, then deleting all her posts and finally going offline before being restored to its former glory.

We deactivated with Instagram to ensure it's secure before relaunching! Hang tight.

Gomez has not yet commented on the hack but here's hoping that's all that will come out of it. Unless there were DMs from Taylor in there. That we want to see.
