THOUSANDS of cheeky globetrotters have been baring their bums at beauty spots around the world, and sharing their shots to Instagram.

Cheeky, from London, said: "I absolutely never expected to have a following like this. I only started it as a cheeky joke with my husband and friends.

"It took about eight months to get a thousand followers, as it was mostly friends for a long time, then the media picked it up and it just went crazy!

"I get butts from all over the world and from all kinds of butts. I post most of them but I have about 1,000 in my inbox I haven't even gotten to, so it takes time!"

The hugely popular Cheeky Exploits page now has more than 278,000 followers.

 Cheeky said she was stunned by how the page has become so popular

Despite containing an online gallery of hundreds of backsides from all over the world, only a handful of bottoms have outraged Instagram users enough to report them as inappropriate.

Cheeky, whose husband takes on the role of photographer when she wants to flash, hopes that the page will help body confidence and be a positive platform for people to feel liberated.

"I set up the account after a friend showed me another account where a guy took naked pictures of himself all over the world," she explained.

"I always thought flashing was funny, so I started one about butts.

"The only ones I don't post are the ones that are poor quality, or too sexual. It wasn't diverse as first because I just wasn't getting diverse submissions, but I'm happy to say that has changed!

"A lot of people write me to say they sent it because my page gave them the confidence to just be free and empowered.

 The Cheeky Exploits page now has more than 235,000 followers, and Cheeky herself hopes it will help people to feel liberated and empowered

"I've thankfully only had a few photos removed because they were reported!

"All butts are beautiful to me and all butts are also funny! My husband is super supportive and is my main photographer.

"He loves it and always helps me get away with my antics!"

One punter commented: “People who follow this account for only women’s butts, or perfect airbrushed butts, are not at all in the spirit of cheeky exploits!

“I’d like to see you haters have the guts to show yours!”

The craze sparked a race for people to pose in the most unusual public places – underwater, rock climbing and near national landmarks including the Eiffel Tower.

Brit beauty Demi Rose joined in, and also offered her top tips on how to take the perfect "belfie".
