Australian DJ Flume has broken his silence on his X-rated Burning Man stunt after a video of him appearing to perform a sex act on stage on Saturday went viral.

Taking to Instagram on Thursday, two days after footage from the festival racked up millions of views, the 27-year-old wrote: 'It was a joke (sorry mum).'

The Grammy winner then appeared to mock the whole incident by posing with a peach in his mouth.

Finding much hilarity in the post, American socialite Paris Hilton commented with an emoji of a cat crying with laughter and one of a ripe peach on the post.

Australian DJ Alison Wonderland branded the incident 'iconic', while artist Slumberjack wrote: 'Listen to the man. Eat your fruits. Stay healthy.'

Flume made headlines around the world on Tuesday after footage of him indulging in the X-rated act went viral, but he'd remained silent on video up until now.

Scandal: On Monday, Flume's rumoured girlfriend Paige Elkington shared a clip of the musician seemingly performing a 'sex act' on stage for a few seconds at the American festival

The star was encouraged to take part in the stunt after fan Ambor Mercy held up a sign asking 'Does Flume even eat ***?' before telling him to 'prove it'.

In the clip, which was shared by his rumoured girlfriend Paige Elkington on Monday, the musician is seen seemingly performing a 'sex act' on stage for a few seconds.

He is then seen stepping back and flashing a smile to the cheering audience.

A friend of Ms Elkington's, who was on stage at the time, told Daily Mail Australia on Wednesday that 'it was Paige' in the video, and not a fan as previously assumed.

Speaking out: Ambor Mercy (pictured), who made the sign encouraging Flume to 'eat ***' on stage, told Daily Mail Australia on Wednesday that nothing sexual happened

Ambor, who made the sign and was stood in close proximity to the DJ booth when the incident occurred, told Daily Mail Australia that nothing sexual happened.

'It's sad to me that people are making it out to be some crazy sex act when he just put his face in [the woman's] bottom,' she explained.

'There was consent from her and she was wearing underwear so it's not like he actually [performed the sex act] on stage. It was just in good Burning Man fun.'

She added: 'He's a really awesome guy, I wish him the best and I really hope that this doesn't negatively affect him, that would make me really bummed.'

Since his first radio play on Triple J Unearthed in 2011 with single Possum, Flume has become one of Australia's biggest musical exports.

In 2013, he won four ARIA Music Awards for Best Male Artist, Breakthrough Artist, Best Dance Release and Producer of the Year, before going international.

He won a Grammy Award for Best Dance/Electronic Album in 2017, after his second studio album, Skin, topped various different charts around the world.

When he's not touring the world, he is found residing on Sydney's Northern Beaches, after snapping up a $1.25 million apartment in Manly last year.

The star is set to headline Listen Out 2019 festival across Australia later this month.
