And Shields -- who is Hollywood's hottest young photographer -- has told RadarOnline.com he can't believe what all the fuss is about.
He said: "Alex is a great kid - super nice in fact.
"Everybody was free and single at the time, so, I can't imagine what the problem was.
"He didn't even hook-up with the models we used - everybody just had a laugh during the shoot, that was it.
"Alex will have a great career. He has an edgy look and is charismatic. He's not crazy and I have shot sexier images of him in the past.
