  • Tyga was trending on Twitter on Saturday, Oct. 3, after a nude photo of him "leaked"
  • He was accused by netizens of leaking his own nude photo to promote his OnlyFans account
  • Tyga earlier said he plans to give fans an "intimate look" at his life through his OnlyFans page

Tyga became a trending topic on Twitter on Saturday, Oct. 3, after his nude photo was "leaked."

A photo of Tyga's privates made the rounds on social media and caused quite a stir shortly after he announced that he has joined other celebrities and launched an OnlyFans account of his own. Though some fans gave Tyga the benefit of the doubt, the timing of the "leak" also raised some eyebrows.

"His nudes didn't ‘leak’ his funds are drying up, its the perfect excuse to create an onlyfans page to get paid....u ain't slick Tyga," one commented.

"I don’t usually seek out celeb’s nudes when they leak but since Tyga leaked his own may I just say hmu," another wrote.

Some pointed out that this is not the first time a nude photo of Tyga has popped up on social media. An explicit photo of him also hit the internet in 2015 when the rapper was still dating Kylie Jenner.

"so tyga created an only fans, to profit off of his leaked [explicit] pics....a business man," one netizen posted with laughing emoji.

"Everyone talking about Tyga posting X-Rated content on OnlyFans but he literally just released the picture of him that leaked years ago. Like, those pictures existed BEFORE OnlyFans calm down everyone," another commented.

Tyga has not addressed the leak publicly, but the rapper later shared via Twitter a link to his OnlyFans, where he is charging subscribers $20 per month to see his content.

Last month, he revealed what's in store for fans who will subscribe to his OnlyFans account, Page Six reported.

"It’s a new platform where I can talk directly to my fans and give them exclusive music, pics, videos and other BTS of my latest releases," he explained in a statement. "They can really see more inside my life than ever before, and an intimate look of what I do every day. It’s ‘bout to be lit!"

Meanwhile, Tyga's previous nude leak incident in 2015 came alongside allegations that he cheated on Jenner with transgender model Mia Isabella, New York Daily News reported.

At the time, the blog B. Scott published screenshots of his alleged text messages with Isabella that included explicit photos of the rapper. Tyga's lawyer, Lee Hutton, then said in a statement to TMZ that his client denies the cheating allegations but admitted that the images were his.

Tyga also appeared to publicly address the nude photo leak and allegations when he tweeted in July 2015, "Smh. The devil is working hard today. Lol."
