Lucy Hale

Back in December, the Pretty Little Liars star made headlines when topless images were leaked online. Though some stars remained quiet during their hackings, letting their lawyers and reps work things out, Lucy made public statements about the incident. "Well I wasn't going to comment on something so ridiculous, but since 2017 is gonna be all about speaking my truth… I'm going to say something. Once again, a woman in the public eye was violated, stolen from and her private life and body were exposed for anyone to see," she wrote on Twitter. "I will not apologize for living my life and having a personal life that is all mine…And to whoever did this… kiss my a–.”

Leslie Jones

The SNL star faced hard times back in August when everything from her passport to her driver’s license to intimate nude photos were obtained by a hacker and then leaked on her website. To make matters worse, the hackers put up a video of a gorilla on her website which led to an onslaught of racist comments on Twitter and other social media platforms. Leslie made an emotional statement on her account following the attack. “I leave Twitter tonight with tears and a very sad heart,” she wrote. “All this cause I did a movie. You can hate the movie but the s–t I got today … wrong.”

Kaley Cuoco

The Big Bang Theory actress, along with Jennifer Lawrence and Kate Upton, had nude photos leaked in 2014. After denying that the photos were of her, Kaley did end up coming clean in an interview with Jimmy Kimmel. In the interview, she revealed that she poked fun at the hackers on her own Instagram by posting a photo of herself in a bikini and using the app Nudity to make it look like a naked snap. “It was just a really bad situation but I took it in my own hands and make a joke about it because what are you going to do?” she asked. “You’ve got to make fun of yourself.”

Rihanna

In 2014, the “Work” songstress reportedly had nude photos of herself leaked on 4chan and Reddit. Though they were eventually taken down, millions saw the snaps. The pics appeared to be taken from some sort of fitting or outfit change on a photo shoot or music video set.

In 2014, the Oscar-winning actress was a victim of the famous iCloud hacking that affected dozens of celebrities. Over 60 explicit images, as well as a video, were leaked via 4chan.
