Jill Scott has addressed alleged nude photos of her that were apparently part of this week's large scale Hollywood hack, which reportedly targeted over 100 celebrities, including Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton, Victoria Justice, Ariana Grande and many others.
There are two alleged photos of the 42-year-old singer-actress that are currently making rounds in the Internet, and she is not ashamed to admit that one of them is authentic.
"I def took the 1st pic w/ a robe; weight loss chronicle but the 2nd, sorry freaks, is not me," she tweeted Wednesday, Sept. 3. "I wish I had that space between my thighs."
The following day, the former "The Voice" guest mentor posted a series of tweets, addressing privacy rights and slamming those people who continue to share the naked selfies.
"How quickly they forget (smh). I did nothing wrong & nothing that was YOUR snake concern. My photo was hacked; my PRIVACY INVADED," she wrote in the microblogging site. "I will not be bowed. I have earned every inch of my life.
"What u see, you can not touch & if it's not ⤠& understanding - you are not a part of my village therefore making your attempt to harm me null. I'm not even delayed. Shame for spreading. Shame 4 adding," continued the three-time Grammy-winning singer.
"I love and appreciate my body. My style has always been graceful. Love Village I see you & feel you too. Thank you for being beautifully human. Thank you for empathy. Thank you for KNOWING better. Thank you for speaking up. Breathe," she added.
While feminists were quick to defend Lawrence after her nude photos leaked, Scott was left undefended because of her race, according to The Washington Post. The said observation caused some Twitter users to go against "white feminists" and "mainstream feminism."
"all the white feminists writing about jennifer lawrence, kate upton, m.e. winstead who haven't said anything about jill scott... what's up?" tweeted Chareth Cutestory.
Twitter user AdeolaOsho, on the other hand, wrote, "waits for mainstream feminism to tweet about privacy violations for Jill Scott the way they did for Jennifer Lawrence."
The naked pictures of several celebrities were published on website 4Chan on Aug. 31 by a yet-to-be identified hacker. The hacking was allegedly enabled through an iCloud leak, The Independent reported.
The FBI has already launched investigation, saying it's "aware of the allegations concerning computer intrusions and the unlawful release of material involving high profile individuals, and is addressing the matter," according to CBS News.
