Adrienne Bailon’s Nude Photos Scandal Was A PR Stunt

Adrienne Bailon wanted to transform herself into a sex symbol, but apparently things didn’t go exactly as she expected.
In an interview with CBS, Jonathan Jaxson, Bailon’s unofficial publicist, has admitted that he and the Cheetah Girl plotted the nude photos scandal to ’juice things up’ with her career.
"Last week I was working with Adrienne and we decided to do a little extra publicity for her image," Jaxson told a CBS station. "She had her laptop stolen recently at an airport in NYC. We got the police report, but it wasn’t good enough."
"So we decided to juice it up, and what better way to do that than to say that nude photos could have been stolen from her laptop?". Jaxson says Bailon was eager to sex up her name and "wanted to distance herself from the whole Disney image."
But the PR stunt backfired when racy photos, which were actually from the starlet’s Sidekick phone, surfaced: "She’s Disney, so we never thought in a million years the pictures would get out, and what happens? Nude pictures surface."
"It’s either her or someone very close to her," Jaxson explained. "Things are pretty ugly, what should have been an image boost has really turned around and bitten her in the butt." And if you’ve seen the photos, there’s no way to not take this as a pun.
"Adrienne has been crying for two days straight, she’s on her Cheetah Girls tour right now so she has to explain to her fans and is totally distraught. Her career is in real jeopardy," Jaxson said, adding that she blames him, and — no surprise here — they will no longer be working together. - (tvshark.com)
