She denounces the theft and dissemination of the photos from her mobile phone in which she appeared n@ked.
The actress Jennifer Lawrence has referred for the first time to the leak of her intim@te photos and she has done so in a forceful manner. "It's not a scandal, it's a s3x crime," she said in an interview with Vanity Fair magazine.
The actress of 'The Hunger Games' referred to the theft and subsequent dissemination on the Internet of the photos from her mobile phone in which she appeared n@ked. "It's my body and it should be my decision, and the fact that it's not my choice is absolutely disgusting. I can't believe that we still live in that kind of world," she said.
Lawrence confessed that for several days after the first photos appeared she tried to write a statement, but "everything I tried to write made me cry or made me angry." "I started to write an apology, but I have nothing to apologize for. I had a good, loving relationship, a great relationship that lasted four years. It was a long-distance relationship, and so either your boyfriend looks at porn... or he looks at you," she said.
Lawrence said that anyone who looked at the photos "is committing a s3*ual crime" and "should die of shame" and she also lashed out against the websites that spread the photos: "It is a s3*ual crime. It is disgusting. The law must be changed, these websites are responsible. And they are only responsible for the fact that when someone can be raped and s3*ually exploited, their first thought is to make a profit from it." "I've stopped crying now."
In addition, the Oscar-winning actress, 24 years old, acknowledged that when the photos came to light she was "very scared." "I didn't know how all this was going to affect my career," says Lawrence, who says that "time heals everything." "I don't cry anymore about it, I can't always be angry. I can't make my happiness depend on other people. I just need to find my own peace," she said.
Jennifer Lawrence was one of the celebrities affected by the attack known as CelebGate, through which a hacker allegedly carried out an attack on Apple's iCloud service that allowed him to steal photos taken with the mobile devices of celebrities such as Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upon, Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande, Kim Kardashian, Winona Ryder and Kirsten Dunst.
In the photographs, the celebrities appear in bikinis, underwear or completely n@ked. "This is a flagrant violation of privacy. The authorities have already been alerted and anyone who publishes stolen photos of Jennifer Lawrence will be prosecuted," said the actress's representative in a statement.
