There are more celebrities involved in the hacked photo leak. Singer Rihanna is the latest victim with alleged nude pictures uploaded on 4chan and Reddit. This photo scandal has involved many other starlets, including Jennifer Lawrence, Hope Solo, and Kate Upton. Singer Ariana Grande was also targeted, but stated any alleged photos of her are fake. Neither Rihanna nor her spokesperson has commented on the hacking.
The singer is the latest celebrity involved in the nude photo scandal. Other stars have been dealing with phone hackers posting their private photos online. The first wave happened a few weeks ago and has involved many stars who have had their security compromised by the leak. While many are grappling with the invasion of privacy, a few like Grande confirm the images aren’t real.
The alleged photos of Rihanna were apparently taken during some sort of fitting. However, 4chan has been diligent about the content on their site, and the pictures have since been taken down. Some celebrities like Gabriele Union have taken legal action, and the FBI is investigating to determine who the phone hackers are. Apple is also looking into the matter to see if its iCloud was compromised, as many photos were hacked from it.
It is unclear how Rihanna will react to this scandal. Other stars are furious and have released statements on the violation of privacy these phone hackers have made. Questions are raised in how fans will react to the photos of the singer. It is an attack on a large scale, affecting many people. While careers are still intact, it is unclear how Apple will proceed from this scandal. The iCloud may take a hit from this investigation and lose popularity among users. Whatever the case may be, it involves many stars and is likely to see a lawsuit or two.
