One year after the nude photo leak, The Fappening, Jennifer Lawrence open up about the experience and her disgusting ‘sexual violation.’
JLaw recently opened up in an in-depth interview with Vogue Magazine, in which Jennifer Lawrence opens up about the new movie she’s working on, Passengers, writing a screenplay with Amy Schumer and the nude photographs of celebrities that leaked online.
The photos were posted on several websites including 4Chan, Reddit and Twitter, and Lawrence, who was only 24 at the time, was devastated, not to mention afraid. Would the nude photo leak end her acting career?
Clearly, her acting career is skyrocketing and she is doing just fine, but when Vogue asked her about the impact it has had on her life, her response was not positive saying, “It was all pain and no gain. But, I don’t dwell on it unless someone brings it up. Have you seen me naked?”
In an interview with Vanity Fair last November, she talked about her attempts at writing a public statement about the incident, but everytime she tried to write something she just ended up breaking down and crying.
“I can’t even describe to anybody what it feels like to have my naked body shoot across the world like a news flash against my will. It just makes me feel like a piece of meat that’s being passed around for a profit.”
When a person is in the public eye like JLaw, sometimes it is easy to ignore how they actually feel and an invasion of privacy, even for a celebrity, should not be forgivable just because they are famous.
“Just because I’m a public figure, just because I’m an actress, does not mean that I asked for this. It does not mean that it comes with the territory. It’s my body, and it should be my choice, and the fact that it is not my choice is absolutely disgusting. I can’t believe that we even live in that kind of world.”
Jennifer Lawrence made it clear that such incidents should not be taken lightly.
“It is 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.
“Anybody who looked at those pictures, you’re perpetuating a sexual offense. You should cower with shame. 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.”
