Pop star Ariana Grande has hit out at Piers Morgan with a series of tweets in defence of women who choose to show off their bodies.
The ITV presenter criticised girl band Little Mix for posing naked.
He mocked their “feminist statement” and accused the group of using sex to sell records.
Grande, who Little Mix has supported on tour, then waded in to the spat: “I use my talent AND my sexuality all the time because i choose to.
“Women can be sexual AND talented. naked and dignified. it’s OUR choice,” Grande tweeted.
Piers Morgan is known for being a provocateur on issues like this.
During a debate about the image and Little Mix on ITV’s Good Morning Britain earlier this week, he said the girl band were using a naked photo shoot for attention and accused them of “using sex to sell records”.
The photograph, which was used to promote their new song Strip, showed the band naked with insults written all over their bodies.
