Charlotte Church topless pic busts onto mobes

charlottechurch271.jpgThe Register reports that UK tabloid The Sun has refused to pay £20,000 for a topless picture of soprano Charlotte Church which is currently doing a tour of the UK mobile phone circuit. The snap was snaffled from Church's boyfriend's mobile phone after he mislaid it on on a night out.

The person who found the phone sent the picture to as many people as possible. The Sun quotes a "close pal" of the Welsh singer as saying: "Charlotte and Gavin sent sexy texts when they started dating. The photo was just some private fun. I think they'll be more careful." The paper will not publish the photo to spare the Church further embarrassment.
