Listen to it on her MySpace.
On his Twitter, Willie Taylor of Day26 confirmed that the recently leaked nude pictures claiming to be of the singer are him. In
three Twitter messages, he acknowledged the situation, explained how it happened and apologized to fans.
So I see that haters just wont leave me alone! The pics that r roaming the net r pics that were sent to my wife in the form of a email!! ... Im not home alot and that was a way we kept the excitement in our relationship, some hater hacked her email and tried to share my privacy ... with the world!! Im So sorry to all my fans, ya'll know me better then that!!!
Just as with the
Cassie story, it troubles me to have to report this, but if you are a Day26 fan, you will find out and you may as well find out here, so you can hear Willie's side and not be exposed to the pictures without warning. My thoughts
on the Cassie article are similar to the ones I feel now.
I'm not going to link to the pictures, and any links posted in the comments will be deleted, as well any comments by people indicating they have seen them. At the end of the day, if you want to find them, you can. But, you're just not going to do it here, as we try to maintain a relatively work friendly environment, as much as possible. Just because I have to acknowledge this story doesn't mean we'll be acting as a point of distribution. Thank you, in advance, for respecting that.
