For the first time, Scarlett Johansson talks about the leaked nude pictures incident that she fell a victim of last year.

The actress was a victim of a nude photo leakage last year when a hacker broke in to her personal email account and leaked pictures she'd taken of herself. Scarlett said that the incident has left her feeling violated which drew a lot of attention and made headlines in print, media and online

"It was really terrible; I felt absolutely violated. I wasn't really aware of how vulnerable all of us are, but I think everybody is just discovering that now, especially with the recent phone-hacking scandals" she said on an interview with Stylist magazine.

"It isn't just celebrities, it's all kinds of people who are not asking for the spotlight. Being hacked made me feel more vulnerable than I ever had previously. I couldn't figure it out," the Avenger's actress added.

Johansson confessed that for a while, she thought the leakage was brought about by someone she knew which made her "incredibly paranoid." She also confessed that she even filtered and listed her friends whom she has known for 20 years, figuring out who among them would be backstabbing her.

The hacker Christopher Chaney was arrested in Jacksonville, Florida and was charged with hacking Johansson's account. He said that his hacking started off only to feed his curiosity but later on, it grew into an addiction to steal celebrity secrets.

Scarlett also discussed her breakup with Ryan Reynolds and what she thinks about the overt sexualization of young women in Hollywood today.

"It seems to be getting younger. You see 16-year-old girls in these photoshoots that are frankly mind-blowing. It seems as if people want to label you as a woman before you really are a woman," she said.
