Meghan McCain

A big stir was created in Twitter after the 2008 presidential candidate Sen. John McCain’s daughter, Meghan McCain, posted a revealing photo of hers in the microblogging site. McCain posed in a provocative manner in a black tank top that shows off her ample skin holding a book about pop-art icon Andy Warhol in hand.

The photo was titled as “My ’spontaneous’ night in”, received more than 120,000 views. The controversy began after Meghan uploaded the photo on Wednesday afternoon. With so many clicks and sharp comments she was forced to remove the image from her Twitpic account.

The Daily Beast writer didn’t know it then that her relaxing evening might just churn out some raving controversies. Meghan uploaded a photo of herself, dressed in a low-cut tank-top with oozing bosoms reading a biography of Andy Warhol, at around 8 p.m. on Wednesday. Within an hour she started facing sharp comments from Tweeples.

“So I took a fun picture not thinking anything about what I was wearing, but apparently anything other than a pantsuit, I am a slut”, she Tweeted as a damage control.

Followed by this she wrote, “[Why] I have been considering deleting my twitter account, what once was fun now just seems like a vessel for harassment”.

But finally Meghan chose to be apologetic and twitted, “I do want to apologize to anyone that was offended by my twitpic. I have clearly made a huge mistake and am sorry 2 those that are offended”. She also explained, “[When] I am alone in my apartment, I wear tank tops and sweatpants, I had no idea this makes me a ‘slut’, I can’t even tell you how hurt I am”.
