Upon seeing the said photos on BuzzFeed.com, the singer's people sent an email requesting that they be taken down, writing:
'Thanks for taking my call. As discussed, there are some unflattering photos on your current feed that we are respectfully asking you to change. I am certain you will be able to find some better photos.
'The worst are #5, 6, 10, 11, 12, 19 and 22. Thank you very much.'
