Ariana Grande nude photo leak an April Fools' prank

Calm down Arianators, your idol Ariana Grande hasn't disgraced herself - it was all a prank.

On Monday it looked like The Way hitmaker had become the latest Disney starlet to fall from grace when news of some leaked pictures, apparently of Ariana wearing not-too-much at the beach, hit the internet and sent Twitter into chaos.

But it seems some people weren't reading the small print, as several of the pictures being shared actually explained in the caption that the images were part of a prank for April Fools' Day on Tuesday.

Some tweeters were clearly a little too eager to see the squeaky clean pop princess tarnish her reputation as the sweetest teen in the music biz, and before long the #ArianasNudesLeaked hashtag was trending on the social networking site.

Now the hoax has been made clear to everyone and Ariana's reputation remains intact - maybe this fiasco will remind Internet gossips to pay more attention to picture captions - and the date!
