Jennifer Lawrence’s Nude Photos and Videos Leaked by 4Chan Hacker; Ariana Grande, Lea Michele, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Kate Upton’s Also Included
Nude photos of top female celebrities of today like Jennifer Lawrence, Ariana Grande, Kate Upton and Victoria Justice have been leaked online by a hacker on the imageboard site 4Chan.
As reported by BuzzFeed, the hacker has posted over 60 explicit photos and videos of Lawrence, including nude photos and her selfies in bathing suits. Some of the photos display full frontal nudity, showing her breasts and her private parts.
The hacker also shared images from his desktop that see folders of other personalities’ photos. Ariana Grande, Teresa Palmer, Mary Kate Olsen, Kim Kardashian, Rihanna, Bar Rafaeli, Lea Michele, Brie Larson and Mary Elizabeth Winstead’s nude and sexy pictures are apparently also included in the hacked files.
Justice addressed the issue on her Twitter, claiming the photos of her are fake, while Winstead admitted that the nude photos of her are real, but they were deleted over a year ago.
These so called nudes of me are FAKE people. Let me nip this in the bud right now. *pun intended*

Knowing those photos were deleted long ago, I can only imagine the creepy effort that went into this. Feeling for everyone who got hacked. — Mary E. Winstead (@M_E_Winstead) August 31, 2014
To those of you looking at photos I took with my husband years ago in the privacy of our home, hope you feel great about yourselves.

Lawrence’s spokesperson appeared to have confirmed that the leaked nude photos of the actress are hers, vowing to take action against the hacker and anyone who posts the actress’ stolen photos.
“This is a flagrant violation of privacy. The authorities have been contacted and will prosecute anyone who posts stolen photos of Jennifer Lawrence,” the Academy Award winner’s rep said in a statement to BuzzFeed.
UPDATE: Lawrence’s photos have now reached other social media sites like Twitter, with users sharing the explicit pictures. The “It” girl has garnered support from her fans, as well as from actor Seth Rogen.
Posting pics hacked from someone's cell phone is really no different than selling stolen merchandise. — Seth Rogen (@Sethrogen) August 31, 2014
I obviously am not comparing women to merchandise. Just legally speaking, it shouldn't be tolerated to repost stolen pics.
