variety.com/2014/biz/news/jennifer-lawrence-kate-upton-ariana-grande-exposed-in-massive-nude-photo-leak-1201295180/Nude photos of “Hunger Games” star Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton, Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande and Kirsten Dunst, among many others, leaked online Sunday morning in one of the biggest celebrity hacking scandals in recent memory. The images, which first appeared on image-sharing site 4chan, show most of the celebrities nude or in provocative poses. A spokesperson for Lawrence confirmed the photos were real and blasted the hackers for their “flagrant violation of privacy.” “The authorities have been contacted and will prosecute anyone who posts the stolen photos of Jennifer Lawrence,” her representative warned. Mary Elizabeth Winstead, another actress exposed in the leak, immediately took to Twitter to denounce the images. A total of 101 celebrities were purportedly hacked, although it’s unclear how many of those photos are authentic. Other stars on the list include Aubrey Plaza, Kim Kardashian, Vanessa Hudgens, Rihanna, Lea Michele, Hillary Duff, Cat Deeley and U.S. soccer star Hope Solo. Actress Victoria Justice, however, insisted that the photos of her were fake. It’s unknown how the risqué photos made it online but Hollywood stars have been a growing target of hackers in recent years. In 2012, a man was sentenced to 10 years in prison for posting nude images of Scarlett Johansson which were taken from her cell phone. Other victims of phone hackings in recent years include “Mad Men” star Christina Hendricks, Blake Lively and Olivia Munn.
