Lana Scolaro and Robin Thicke

The woman featured in the Robin Thicke so called butt-grabbing photograph has confirmed it is real.

Lana Scolaro uploaded a picture to Instagram of herself with married singer Robin Thicke, 36, and a mirror behind them clearly shows his hand on her behind although she claimed she didn't know about the reflection.

The attention seeking socialite blonde says she was aware that the 36-year-old gave her derriere a squeeze at the time, she was surprised to discover later that it was visible in the reflection of the mirror behind them.

"I knew his hand was on my butt, but I didn't know that there was a mirror.

I was just like, 'Oh I'll Instagram this photo with Robin Thicke, like everybody else

"I didn't even know that was the reflection until I uploaded it, and someone commented on it. I was just like, 'Oh I'll Instagram this photo with Robin Thicke, like everybody else.'"

Lana revealed she first met Robin a week ago and he approached her at the MTV Video Music Awards after-party in New York on Sunday (25.08.13).

She told Celebuzz: "We have mutual friends in common. I actually met him a week before the after party.

"I was actually going over to the DJ booth and he followed me. His security guard took the photo and said, 'You guys make a cute couple.'

"I didn't think it would cause this much drama. I didn't know it would be all over everything like this."

While a concerned Twitter user sent the picture to Robin's wife Paula Patton, 37, the '2 Guns' actress is reportedly unconcerned about the incident and has brushed it off while she enjoys a holiday with Robin and their three-year-old son Julian.
