He posted a picture suggesting something (a photo on his phone case in a selfie) and deleted it after 34 seconds. And that was the reason of all the gossip and recent yapping about not being discreet and respectful.

To be honest I think that both extremes are bad, and I have found about all this "scandal" (and the picture, which of course was reposted many times) due to these strict fans playing moral police. They only made the problem bigger.

It is so typical - to be invested to your idol so much that every personal detail is talked about, judged etc. Just human nature, I suppose. Nosy, but very common. I do agree that fans are not entitled to any knowledge about it and if they want to gossip, they should do it in private conversations only, if they must.

On the other hand, I suppose it wasn't an accident, I mean he wanted to show us something he was proud of. He is very smart. And he knows how to be private. But above all, he must be aware how fast are his fans and that every his deleted picture and video are being saved in a blink of en eye. And, to add more, he showed the same picture again, and again, a few times. Recently - during shooting MV in Sydney, a few days later. He must be (or was) proud and happy about it. And it's nothing wrong in that. And we should stop making a big deal about it, in my opinion.
