THIS is the hilarious moment an influencer nearly goes topless after a seagull appeared to rip off her bikini – but not all may be as it seems.
Lele Pons was seemingly left mortified after the cheeky “gull” looked like it swooped down and untied her bikini.

The clip shows the content creator posing on a beach – apparently among dozens of seagulls.
She is sporting a black sparkly bikini top and denim Daisy Duke shorts.
As she smiles for the camera, a gull appears to swoop down and grab the end of the strap before flying off and apparently untying it.
Shocked, Pons covers herself with her hands and glares at the offending “bird”.
As her pals crease up with laughter, the influencer appears to mouth “f***” as the video comes to an end.
The American influencer – who lives in Miami, US – shared the funny clip on Instagram for her army of 54million followers.
But she gives the game away in her caption, joking that the “bird is a paid actor.”
On second viewing it is clear the birds are a convincing computer-generation.
But the post still went viral with nearly 18 million views in two days.
One fan commented: “This is epic.”
Another said: “The birds in Miami are built differently.””
“Why do all those crazy strange things happen to you?”, wrote a third.
Pons was born in the Venezuelan capital Caracas and moved to the US when she was five years old.
Her raunchy music video for her 2018 song Celoso has been viewed a whopping 400 million times on YouTube.
She began her career on the six-second video platform Vine which she used to showcase her music and early comedy routines.
Pons became the first Viner to reach one billion loops and before the platform shut down in 2016, she had become the most-looped and most-followed Viner of all time.
The influencer has acted in film and television, and in 2016 she co-authored a novel called Surviving High School.
She married Puerto Rican rapper Guaynaa March 4 last year.
While being a fake, it wouldn’t have been the only time a content creator has been set upon by a cheeky animal.
One woman was caught out when a monkey pulled down her top and exposed her boobs.
Brittany Bowman was travelling with friends when she visited Chiang Mai, in Thailand, which is known for its monkeys.
Already nervous, Brittany, from Los Angeles, let the little monkey jump up her leg and clamber up over her shorts.
While trying to swing up to her shoulders, the monkey grabbed on to Brittany’s off-the-shoulder top and almost revealed her boobs underneath before the tourist managed to preserve her modesty.
Brittany said: “It left all of us laughing hysterically, almost to the point of tears.
“I was just so scared that the monkey was jumping on me that I didn’t even consider it would pull down my top.”
