Scotty T is under fire after a controversial tweet about the Manchester terrorist attack that took place last night.
Last night, as news broke of an explosion at the Ariana Grande concert, which has killed 22 people including children, a message appeared on the Geordie Shore star’s personal account.
It said, “Thoughts going out to all the victims and their families in Manchester right now and you @ArianaGrande!! #fancyacuddle.”
His followers straight away called Scotty “sick” and “disgusting” for making light of the tragedy.

The reality star quickly deleted the tweet, and took to Twitter again to deny all responsibility for the offensive message, claiming his account had been hacked.
He wrote, “Hi apologies to anyone offended last night My Twitter was hacked. Anyone who follows me knows I would not tweet anything so disgusting.”
“There were 17 apps logged In to the account. All of these had to be removed.
“Anyone who follows me knows I would not tweet anything so disgusting.”
