Prince Harry Vegas pictures have been causing quite a stir online, especially for the British Royals, however media mogul Rupert Murdoch has came to the defense of the Prince and taken to Twitter to urge critics to "give him a break."
TMZ posted photos of of him frolicking naked in a Las Vegas hotel suite surfaced last week. Prince Harry and his entourage were partying at the fancy Encore Wynn hotel when they picked up a few attractive girls and brought them up to their hotel room. The group decided to engage in strip billiards, a game at which when you lose, you have to lose a piece of your clothing which Harry appears to not have done well since he lost all his clothes.
Murdoch, 81, posted a message of support on his Twitter page after The Sun, his top-selling British tabloid, printed the images of 27-year-old Harry in defiance of orders from the royal family.
"Prince Harry. Give him a break. He may be on the public payroll one way or another, but the public loves him, even to enjoy Las Vegas," he wrote.
The newspaper said it was "ludicrous" that the British press were not allowed to print images that had already been seen by hundreds of millions of people on the Internet.
Britain's media watchdog, the Press Complaints Commission, has received more than 850 complaints about The Sun's publication of the photos.
British newspapers and TV stations have been unable to show the pictures after Harry's father Prince Charles threatened legal action and St James's Palace warned that the pictures were a gross invasion of the young royal's privacy. The Scotland Yard protection officers are said to have been 'enjoying the party' when the girls went back to Harry's suite at Encore in Las Vegas.
The photos were taken by a mobile phone by an unknown source in a Las Vegas hotel suite and sold to gossip website, TMZ. They show Prince Harry butt-naked while an also nude woman holds him from behind. In another photo, Prince Harry is seen hugging a naked woman with his bottom bared to the camera as they tussle with a pool cue.

Meanwhile, Vivid Entertainment, a porno production company, has offered the 27-yearolld English Prince $10 million to show off his crown jewels in a porno movie, according to E online.
"Dear Royal Sir, we were amused and pleased by the photos of your recent frolic in Las Vegas," Vivid Entertainment CEO Steven Hirsch wrote in a letter to Prince Harry. "What happens there rarely stays there, unfortunately."
