Charlotte McKinney has been forced to deny that she posted nude images of herself to Instagram.
A topless image of the Florida-born beauty appeared on her social media account late on Wednesday night, but was swiftly taken down on Thursday.
“I’m gonna be so damn hungover tomorrowww,” the caption on one picture read. The topless pictures were taken down and to replace them, Charlotte uploaded a note with her statement explaining the situation and apologizing to her fans.

According to TMZ, a representative for the 23-year-old model claims that the hacker was responsible for posting topless pictures of Charlotte on Instagram.
Her rep addressed the alleged hacking incident within an official statement to TMZ.
“Charlotte has once again become a victim of hacking. It is disgusting someone does this and hopefully laws will change to protect people from these cyber attacks.”
Charlotte is known for her looks and over-the-top sex appeal. Her sexy modeling shots don’t usually include a lot of clothes, but it is still a major invasion of privacy for someone to post such revealing photos without her permission. Sadly, this is something that happens to celebrities all too often.
Charlotte McKinney is a model that many dubbed as the 'next Kate Upton.' She made headlines earlier this year when she was featured in a Super Bowl commercial for Carl’s Jr, a popular burger restaurant chain.
To promote the restaurant’s all-natural, grass-fed beef burger, Charlotte was captured walking through a farmer’s market fully-naked.
In a January interview with Esquire, Charlotte opened up about the experience, including why she was excited about being featured in the iconic commercial.
“I’ve always seen the commercials and thought, ‘Hey, I could do that. That looks fun.’ But it’s such an iconic commercial, with Heidi Klum and Paris Hilton," she said. "It was such an honor to get that spot."
