Former Suite Life of Zack & Cody star, Dylan Sprouse, who was also in movies as a child like Big Daddy, took to Tumblr to defend his nude selfies that surfaced over the weekend.
He already took to his Twitter account to write that he "messed up... but I'd be a fool not to own up to it,” but in a new message posted to his Tumblr page he’s admitting he doesn’t feel ashamed of what he did. "I don’t think what I did was wrong," he wrote.
In a lengthy post, Sprouse, 21, now a student at New York University, wrote “To be blunt, I was proud of my progress in the gym, thought I looked hot, and wanted to share it.”
He went on to say that he isn’t fond of our culture’s taboos on nakedness, saying “I don’t particularly think its a good thing to teach people that you should 'hide yourself' as something incredibly sacred.”
Sprouse went on to say despite all of his new followers on social media, he wanted to make it clear he didn’t do any of this to “receive fame (or infamy?).”
“I worry somewhat for my artistic integrity, and my academic integrity," he concluded. "Not exactly ideal, but I’m to blame and I’ll look this incident in the eye like a man. I did it, but I’d be damned if I didn’t own that shit like Beyonce would want me to."
