Jennifer Lawrence terms photo hack a 'sexual violation'

  • Jennifer Lawrence terms photo hack a 'sexual violation'
Actress Jennifer Lawrence has described the photo hack which leaked her nude photographs as a "sexual violation".
 
The “Hunger Games” actress, who is reportedly dating Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, has spoken about her disgust for the hackers who leaked dozens of naked photographs which they stole from her iCloud account and then posted on various websites, reports contactmusic.com.
 
Talking to Vanity Fair magazine, Lawrence said: "It's not a scandal. It is a sex crime. It is a sexual violation. It's disgusting. The law needs to be changed and we need to change."
 
She also hit back at the critics who believe she was wrong to take the intimate photos in the first place, as she argued that she was in a long-distance relationship with her now ex-boyfriend Nicholas Hoult when the images were taken.
 
"I was in a loving, healthy, great relationship for four years. It was long distance, and either your boyfriend is going to look at porn or he's going to look at you,” she said.
