This is bringing up an interesting bit of hypocrisy in Hollywood as to who's images can be acceptably hacked and which ones can't. The entire fucking industry is crying bloody murder for Jennifer Lawrence but laughed at Vanessa Hudgens for the same thing.

Lawrence probably has a right to be angry because now for all the world to see we see her on the casting couch and most cynics are now yelling "now we know how she got her Oscar." Basically her career is over after Hunger Games. No big loss because frankly she cannot act to save her life anyway.

Which brings me to something I've been noticing over the last decade. While pop stars are looking one in the same with porn stars in terms of extreme over sexualization, the movies are getting darker and sexless. You can't be a ladies' man in movies anymore and nudity is really disappearing. (Bond is practically gay now and everyone is so oversensitive to "objectifying" women that sexual content has greatly diminished.) While many blame 9/11 and everything being oh so dark, (the Christopher Nolanization of all action movies rendering them all joyless,) but I blame the celebrity sex tape. Why? Because nobody does nude scenes after they've had nude photos or sex tapes leaked. We don't get it professionally lit with studio quality cameras, just awkward "selfies" and tapes that show next to nothing.

I have no sympathy for the Kate Uptons and Jennifer Lawrences of the world. Upton in particular got famous for "risque" selfies in the first place and nothing that got leaked looked much different, save for baseball boyfriend of the week's man ass in the shots. If you have a fetish for getting naked and filming it, it WILL get out there and more often than not I think these folks want that. (Pamela Anderson being the worst offender and probably the one big example of a sex tape ruining a career.) I am only angry because countless quality nude payoffs in film and Playboy were lost in the blink of an eye. Who cries for ME????
