Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton, and other female celebs are super mad after their private photos surface.
Sadly mankind’s perverse curiosity has caused risqué photos of Jennifer Lawrence, Ariana Grande, Kirsten Dunst, Kaley Cuoco, Victoria Justice, and Kate Upton to spread like wildfire. I won’t link to the images. If you want to find them, I’m sure Google or Perez Hilton can help you. Yes, the popular celebrity blogger linked to the images and then claimed the leak was ‘awful.’ Ugh, gross.
So how did these private photos surface? Some scummy hacker swiped the images and then whined about how little he got paid for the graphic material on 4Chan. I guess the hacker didn’t get the big pay out he was looking for in the end. How did he access this sensitive data? Some sources blame Apple’s iCloud, others claim a phishing scam is to blame. The FBI is investigating the hack and Apple has launched its own investigation.
Pretty frightening theories since a lot of us store data via Apple’s iCloud. These celeb photos were taken privately and in intimate situations, so definitely not for public consumption. As expected, Jennifer Lawrence‘s and Kate Upton’s reps are furious and are looking to take legal action against the data thieves and anyone who distributes the photos.
Victoria Justice and Ariana Grande have claimed their saucy photos are fakes. Eh, not sure I buy that… Kirsten Dunst is super peeved and is laying the blame on Apple itself.
The whole thing is a big mess and super creepy. It’s sad to see these women’s private lives put on display without their consent and the willingness for others to spread and comment on the embarrassing pictures.
This story gets a little weirder, the photos of Kate Upton and Jennifer Lawrence are being incorporated into an art exhibit in Florida. Yes, the artist claims the photos are no longer just pictures… they are art. Yeah okay, those images are still stolen.
For the sake of these ladies and women everywhere, hopefully the hacker or hackers are apprehended and brought to justice.
