According to reports, one photo was taken from an Instagram private message and the other from Snapchat, with "baby, look what's waiting for you" written on it.
However, a spokesperson for Apa told NZME the raunchy pics were "clearly photoshopped" and added that he was not a Snapchat user.
The 20-year-old is New Zealand's most popular Instagram celebrity, with 5.4 million followers.
