It's safe to say most celebrities are a little gun-shy when it comes to taking naked selfies.

But Usher didn't hesitate to strip off and give his Snapchat followers a sneak peek on Thursday as he enjoyed a steam room and shower session.

In the most risque image, which the 37-year-old star captioned 'blowinoffsteam', he attempted to cover his modesty with an emoji as he is seen sitting on a ledge in his birthday suit.

Unfortunately the singer chose a graphic that wasn't quite big enough to cover the area and ended up revealing a little too much.

It may of course have been an intentional and well-executed humble brag.

But what was certainly impressive was Usher's phone which managed to capture the whole thing despite the wet conditions. 

He gave his phone - a Samsung Galaxy S7 - a plug while he was at it. 

But the company made it clear they weren't involved in a statement to DailyMail.com: 'Samsung had nothing to do with images in question.'

In pictures and video from inside his shower, the OMG hitmaker sprayed the showerhead directly at his cell phone.

He captioned one of the clips: 'S7 shower proofed' clearly impressed with how the gadget held up.

The producer also filmed himself brushing his teeth, holding the phone aloft with his left hand as he scrubbed his pearly whites while wrapped up in a green towel.

Before heading into the bathroom, the R&B star had given fans a tour of his luxurious home. 

Meanwhile Usher made an appearance at Coachella over the weekend and paid tribute to Prince as he appeared on stage during Major Lazer and Diplo's set.

The U Got It Bad singer is currently working on his eighth studio album, FLAWED, which is expected to drop in the next couple of months.
