Scout Willis goes topless over Instagram nipple ban

Bruce Willis' daughter Scout has staged a topless protest over Instagram's removal of a picture featuring women's nipples.

The 22-year-old daughter of Demi Moore and Willis tweeted a picture of herself walking in New York on Tuesday.

In a series of tweets, she used the hashtag #FreeTheNipple to protest at the website's anti-nudity policy.

Instagram's terms of use ban members from posting nude or partially nude photos.

Its terms of use state: "You may not post violent, nude, partially nude, discriminatory, unlawful, infringing, hateful, pornographic or sexually suggestive photos or other content via the service."

Ms Willis had posted a sweatshirt she designed featuring two topless women, which was taken down by the website.

In response she tweeted: "@instagram there is no way 2 contact you directly, I would really appreciate response b/c you took a lot of memories from me b/c u h8 nips."

As well as sharing the picture of her walking along the street on Twitter, she also uploaded an image showing her buying flowers at a street stall.

Ms Willis' actions have attracted plenty of attention on social media with many supporting the 22-year-old.

John Morden tweeted: "Full support for @Scout_Willis campaigning to end topless censorship, #freethenipple."
