LOS ANGELES -- Hunger Games star Jennifer Lawrence has broken her silence after having nude photos hacked off her computer and leaked on the Internet. A few weeks ago, Lawrence was among the stars who had nude photos leaked on the Internet.
“It is not a scandal. It is a sex crime,” Lawrence told Vanity Fair magazine. “It’s disgusting. The law needs to be changed, and we need to change. That’s why these websites are responsible. Just the fact that somebody can be sexually exploited and violated, and the first thought that crosses somebody’s mind is to make a profit from it. “It’s so beyond me. I just can’t imagine being that detached from humanity,” she said. “I can’t imagine being that thoughtless and careless and so empty inside.”
When the photos first emerged, Lawrence, 28, kept tight-lipped and left the talking to her representative, who slammed the leak.But the actress tells Vanity Fair she was so devastated that “every single thing that I tried to write made me cry or get angry.”“I started to write an apology, but I don’t have anything to say I’m sorry for,” she said. “I was in a loving, healthy, great relationship for four years,” she says of her time with X-Men co-star Nicholas Hoult. “It was long distance, and either your boyfriend is going to look at porn or he’s going to look at you.”
The Oscar winner and current Tinseltown it girl also had harsh words for anyone who looked at the photos.
“Anybody who looked at those pictures, you’re perpetuating a sexual offence. You should cower with shame,” she said.
“Even people who I know and love say, ‘Oh, yeah, I looked at the pictures.’ I don’t want to get mad, but at the same time I’m thinking, I didn’t tell you that you could look at my naked body.”
Almost as difficult was telling her Kentucky family about the nude images. But at the time, her father was golfing and “in a good mood.”
“Time does heal, you know,” she said. “I’m not crying about it anymore. I can’t be angry anymore. I can’t have my happiness rest on these people being caught, because they might not be. I need to just find my own peace.”
