After nude photos ofPretty Little Liarsactress Lucy Hale leaked online,??? ?? ???? she fired back with a message for the people responsible and anyone who feels that she should be feeling ashamed.
“Once again, a woman in the public eye was violated, stolen from and her private life and body were exposed for anyone to see,” writes Hale in an iPhone note she tweeted following the leak. “I will not apologize for living my life and having a personal life that is all mine. It’s truly unfortunate that being exposed in this way is allowed."

Maisie Williams and Leslie Jones are among the female stars who have had their private photos stolen and distributed online without their consent this year which, unfortunately, still isn't over.
But just because Hale is fully aware that this violation of her privacy is par for the course in the troll-laden digital landscape doesn't mean she's accepting her fate. "Whoever did this…kiss my ass," Hale continues.
According to TMZ, the images were obtained by Celeb Jihad, a website that consists primarily of photos of celebrities heads photoshopped onto nude bodies. Hale's lawyer intervened and had the images, which are Hale's personal property, taken down.
The website responded in the classiest way possible: Photoshopping Hale's head onto nude photos of models, throwing lurid insults at the authentic photos that were published and suggesting that the actress should be thanking them for the publicity.
