LOS ANGELES: John Legend's Twitter account was hacked by an unknown prankster, who changed the singer's bio to something insulting and even posted a series of vulgar and absurd tweets on his wall.




The singer deleted the offensive tweets as soon as he was back.


However, the singer later clarified:

I would never threaten violence to the President. No matter how much I wish he would go away.

Immediately after the hack, the 38-year-old star took to his social media profiles to inform fans about the security breach.

He deleted the offensive tweets and offered an apology as soon as he was back.

I did call him Liar-In-Chief. Then my hacker took over to do the Angrier John version of it all.

In another post he said, "My hacker was vulgar and kinda hilarious. I'll try and be funnier from now on so he won't feel the need to ghost write for me."

I'm back. My hacker was vulgar and kinda hilarious. I'll try to be funnier from now on so he won't feel the need to ghost write for me.
