Olly Murs is clearly challenging Kim Kardashian for that ‘breaking the internet’ award.

The 32-year-old pop star sent his fans into a fluster when he shared a near naked picture of himself on Twitter and joked that he is a “naturist”.

The picture shows a naked Murs standing with his shorts around his ankles at the edge of a swimming pool and a pineapple hiding his modesty.

Murs has a habit of covering his modesty with inanimate objects. In May he was pictured naked in a changing room with a silver trophy hiding his private parts.

The Kiss Me singer posted the saucy snap hours after he made an appearance on Lorraine where he told viewers he is happy being single.

Murs – who split from his girlfriend of three years, Francesca Thomas in 2015 – said his career can make it difficult to have a girlfriend.

“I'm still single,” he said. “I'm just keeping my options open. I'm quite happy being single, a bit of a free spirit, and focusing on work.

“To be honest I’m so career driven and unfortunately that sometimes hampers me having a girlfriend because I'm constantly working.”

He joked that Paddy McGuinness has attempted to persuade him to take part in ITV dating show, Take Me Out.

"Paddy McGuinness is a friend of mine and he keeps asking me to come on Take Me Out,” he said. “I’m like, Paddy not just yet, not just yet.”

Murs is busy preparing for the release of his fifth studio album, 24HRS, and his 2017 tour.
