In 2014, a hacker somehow got into the iCloud storage system, and managed to steal over a hundred extremely personal photos of some very well-known celebrities. This was probably the biggest photo leak of all time, and it just goes to show how far we've advanced technologically. It used to be that in order to get your eyes on a naked celebrity, you had to hide in their bushes, or follow them as they went on vacation, hoping they'd take their top off at the beach. Nowadays, it seems that a talented enough hacker can take rip the clothes off his favorite celebrities, all from the comfort of his own home, without ever lifting a finger, save for a few clicks on his mouse and some strokes on the keyboard.
Can you imagine what it must have been like to have these very revealing photos plastered all over the internet, where anyone with access can look at with a simple google search query? It would take a strong soul indeed to face the public yet again, knowing that a huge amount of people had succumbed to temptation and seen their personal pictures. How do you go on acting, singing, or competing in athletics after a blow like that? Well, it's not like they have much choice. They have to get on with their lives and move on. Otherwise, it will drive them insane. But how closely were you paying attention to this whole incident? Do you know which celebs had their photos leaked, and who didn't?
Britney Spears
Britney Spears is one celebrity who would probably be a major suspect for having her nudes leaked. Throughout her long, illustrious, and sometimes turbulent career, she's proved that she's very good at using her sexuality to sell her music and herself as a product. But how sexual is she really behind closed doors? Is she type of person to take nude selfies and post them to iCloud? It's probably a major fantasy of a lot of guys to see her naked. But were her photos leaked?
Kelly Ripa
Kelly Ripa is another woman who a lot of guys fantasize about? What's that? It's just me? Come on... Kelly Ripa is hot. She's probably the hottest milf in the entertainment business right now, at least in this writer's opinion. She has her own talk show, and she acts pretty damn flirty with a lot of her guests. But is she the type of person to send nudes and post them to iCloud? Or is she more demure? Were her photos leaked?
Lacey Banghard
Lacey Banghard is another star that some of you might be familiar with, especially if you live in the UK. She's a glamour model who has appeared in countless men's magazines. Often she goes topless, so people have already seen her pretty much naked - and she has taken these photos consensually. But there's a big difference between getting paid to take nude pictures and having private nudes stolen from you. But what about her? Was she someone who had her photos leaked?
Rose McGowan
Rose McGowan is one of the most adored actresses in the world, and she is one of the most beautiful. She has appeared in television shows like "Charmed." She's also appeared in high profile movies like "Planet Terror," which was directed by the hugely famous Quentin Tarantino. She's been involved in quite a few controversies, such as criticizing gay people and Caitlin Jenner. But was her biggest controversy the iCloud leaks? Was she one of these celebrities who had their photos leaked to the world?
Miley Cyrus
Miley Cyrus is one name that has been talked about a lot in recent years. She made news across the world when she reinvented her image completely, with a heavy emphasis on sexuality, drug use, and revealing her body. She's gone on multiple talk shows wearing things like nipple pasties instead of a shirt. She's performed on stage in even less clothing. And she's even smoked weed on stage before. But what about her nudes? Did she get these personal photos leaked?
Kelly Brook
Kelly Brook is another name that I'm sure a lot of you will recognize. She's big across the world, but she's most famous in the UK, where she's appeared in multiple TV shows, such as "Top Gear," and "Strictly Come Dancing." She's also featured heavily on men's magazines such as FHM, who crowned her the "Sexiest Woman In The World" in 2005. Because of all of this, it would probably be a dream come true if her personal photos were ever leaked. But did this ever happen?
Kristen Stewart
Kristen Stewart is another girl that has been enjoying a lot of fame and success in recent years. She shot to fame with her lead role in the "Twilight" series, and has been continuing to do amazing work ever since. People have criticized her acting style, but there's no arguing with her growing body of work. She's also pretty famous for doing great things off screen, such as activism and using her fame for good. But were her photos ever leaked?
Jennifer Lawrence
Jennifer Lawrence is another huge name in acting right now, and she's only just started to become a major player in recent years. She's shot to fame with her roles in the X-Men series of films, and as the lead role in the Hunger Games series. Since then, she's matured a lot as an actor and has appeared in all kinds of amazing films. She's definitely one to watch in the future. But was she one of those unlucky celebs who had their photos leaked?
Kate Upton
Tons of people are huge fans of Kate Upton, and yes, they're mostly guys. Kate Upton has become a huge sex symbol in recent years. She's appeared in countless men's magazines such as Sports Illustrated and many others, appearing in wet transparent swimsuits, showing off her amazing features. If a hacker was looking through the iCloud databases, you can bet that Kate Upton would be the first name they would search for. But were they successful? Did they manage to leak her photos?
Amber Heard
Amber Heard is another huge celebrity these days, and a huge name in many of the newest movies. She's famous for her enchanting roles in movies like "Pineapple Express," and many others. She's also been in the news a lot lately for some pretty unfortunate reasons. She had been married to Johnny Depp when they very publicly divorced, something that was shrouded in controversy. For someone like her, the last thing she needed was more negative publicity. But did she get her photos leaked?
Ellen Degeneres
The thing about the iCloud leaks was that some very surprising names were affected. Sometimes, these were the people that you least expected to see. People like Ellen Degeneres might not be someone you would consider to post nudes on iCloud, but you never know... Ellen is of course one of the most famous talk show hosts right now, and has featured many amazing celebrities on her show. But was this celebrity one of the unlucky ones who had their photos leaked?
Gabrielle Union
Gabrielle Union is another massive actress these days, so it would be a shame if her photos had in fact been leaked. It's tough to bounce back from an incident like that, but if anyone can do it, actors like her can. Actors are famous for not being self-conscious, it's in their job description. And at the end of the day, there's not much you can do except get on with your life and move on. But did this ever actually happen to Gabrielle Union?
Kirsten Dunst
Kirsten Dunst is a huge fan-favorite in the entertainment world, and a lot of guys obsess over her. That's because she's been around for ages, and started off as a child actress. In a way, we've seen her grow up. I remember seeing her in movies like "Small Soldiers" when I was just a kid, and falling in love with her. She's appeared in so many other movies since then, such as "Spider-Man." But was she one of the unlucky celebrities who had their photos leaked?
Demi Lovato
Demi Lovato is another huge name today. She started out as a child actress, appearing on "Barney And Friends," before moving on to the Disney channel for shows like "Camp Rock." She has since matured into a solo musician, and she's one of the most popular pop singers right now. She's known for being pretty sexual on stage and in her music videos, but then again, who isn't these days? But was she one of the unlucky celebrities who had their photos leaked?
Kaley Cuoco
Kaley Cuoco is another star many of you will no doubt recognize, as she's appeared in countless movies and television shows. She's famous for her almost unparalleled beauty, and if she had been targeted by hackers who wanted to leak her photos, it would be a major "score" indeed. She's most famous for her roles in the television series "Charmed" and "Big Bang Theory." But was this hot female celebrity unfortunate enough to have her personal photos leaked to the world?
Dove Cameron
Dove Cameron looks so cute and innocent in all her photos. That's why it would be a crying shame if she was one of those unlucky female celebrities who had their personal photos shared for everyone to see. She's a well-known Disney princess (or should I say actress) who has starred in such television shows as "Liv And Maddie." She's also moving on to more serious film work with roles in movies like "The Descendants." But did she really get her photos leaked?
Beyonce
Beyonce is a huge name who needs no introduction. Nowadays she's known as so many things: A feminist, a businesswoman, a mother, and above all, an inspiration. She first landed on a lot of people's radars when she was in the popular all-girl band, Destiny's Child. She was by far the most successful member of that band in later years, although many people have said that she wasn't the most talented vocally. But was she one of these celebrities who had their photos leaked?
Gwen Stefani
Gwen Stefani is a personal favorite of mine, and I'm sure she holds an equally special place in many other people's hearts. She's given us so many amazing songs, from both her solo career and with her band, "Do Doubt," which started off with ska influences but evolved into something totally unique. Along with selling 30 million records worldwide, she's also ventured into acting, voicing one of the characters from the "Trolls" movie. But did she have her photos leaked?
Nina Dobrev
Nina Dobrev is definitely one of the hottest new stars right now, and she's someone that a lot of guys fantasize about. It's not hard to see why. She has a deliciously cute face, and a jaw-dropping body. She's not curvy or that blessed in certain places, but her lithe frame carries with it an unmistakable air of sexuality and allure. She's been in trouble before as well, famously getting her mugshot taken after being charged with disorderly conduct. But did she have her photos leaked?
Anna Kendrick
Anna Kendrick is another hugely talented star I'm sure many of you are familiar with. She's pretty rare in that she has incredible beauty, but also a real gift in acting. She's definitely one of the funniest actresses you will ever see perform, but she's also capable of doing more serious, dramatic roles as well. Though most people know her from Pitch Perfect these days, she's also shone in smaller roles like the sister in Wedding Crashers. But has she had her photos leaked?
Kate Middleton
Kate Middleton is probably the person you'd least expect to have her personal pictures taken, at least after Ellen Degeneres... After all she IS royalty, which means that if there are nudes of her's in existence, they're probably secured in one of the most sophisticated computers known to man, deep inside a dungeon guarded by super-soldiers, inside a castle... With a moat. But that's not to say it's not possible. Hackers have wormed their way into secure files before. But were her photos leaked?
Cara Delevingne
Cara Delevingne is another name that tons of people are talking about these days. At first glance, it's not hard to see why. She's one of the hottest, sexiest girls alive right now, and she knows it. It's not surprising then, that she started her career off as a model. But nowadays, she's branching off into acting, as many models do, and she's getting way more exposure as a result. But was she one of those unlucky celebrities that had her photos leaked?
Rihanna
Rihanna is another celebrity who needs no introduction. She's rose to incredible fame in recent years, and pretty much everyone on the planet, and maybe even the galaxy knows who she is. She's famous for all kinds of songs, and she's equally famous for her weed-smoking antics, her revealing social media posts, and her on-and-off relationship with Drake. She's also ventured into acting with a few voice-acting roles. But was she one of those unlucky celebrities who had their photos leaked?
Jenny McCarthy
Jenny McCarthy is another name most of you are probably familiar with. She started off as a Playboy model, doing nudes for that magazine in the early 90's. She then started venturing into acting for film and television, and her most notable roles were in movies such as "BASEsketball," "Scream 3," and "Santa Baby." Due to the first part of her career, a huge part of her public image is based on her sexuality. But was she one of these celebrities who had their photos leaked?
Elizabeth Hurley
Elizabeth Hurley is another celebrity who probably needs no introduction. She was huge in the 90's, when she appeared in the first Austin Powers movie, and movies such as "Bedazzled," the latter of which being one of her better known roles. She played the devil, and she did it really well. Although she's older now, back then she was known as quite the sex symbol, especially in Britain. But was she one of these unlucky celebrities who had their photos leaked?
Mary-Kate Olsen
Mary-Kate Olsen is another celebrity who I'm sure pretty much everyone on the face of the earth is familiar with. She is of course one half of the immensely successful duo, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. They've appeared in countless films together, released a few albums, and even started a successful fashion line together. But aside from all this, there was always a number of guys who fantasized about these twins sexually. So was Mary-Kate ever the victim of a photo leak?
Nick Hogan
Nick Hogan is another celebrity you might know, especially those of you who are fans of Hulk Hogan. Why? Because Nick Hogan is Hulk Hogan's son. He appeared frequently on Hulk Hogan's reality TV show, "Hogan Knows Best," and he's also known for participation in professional motorsports. He was hit with a major controversy when he was charged with a DUI after crashing his car into a tree, leaving his passenger with serious injuries. But was this celebrity a victim of a photo leak?
Mary Elizabeth Winstead
Mary Elizabeth Winstead is one of the most famous actresses, and she's appeared in some pretty major films throughout her long career. One of her first major roles was Bruce Willis' character's daughter in "Die Hard." She also appeared in "Final Destination 3," "Deathproof," and many others. Aside from her acting career, she's also had considerable success as a singer, teaming up with Dan The Automator to form the duo, Got A Girl. But was she the victim of a photo leak?
Hope Solo
All of you soccer fans probably know Hope Solo. She's probably the most famous women's soccer player in the world right now. Come to think of it, she's probably one of the most female athletes in the world right now. And actually, you might have heard about her even if you're not a fan of soccer. She's got the beauty to match her talent, and it's this feature that gets her a lot of attention - as well as all of her controversial comments. But did she get her photos leaked?
Summer Glau
Summer Glau is one of my personal favorite actresses, as well as a host of other nerds you might meet at comic-con. Why is she so popular with geeks, nerd, and sci-fi buffs? Because she's appeared in countless sci-fi movies and television shows, including gems such as the unfortunately short-lived "Firefly" television show, and movies like "Serenity," which was based on the Firefly series. She has incredible, unique beauty, and she's a hard face to forget. But were her personal photos leaked?
Becca Tobin
Becca Tobin is another huge fan favorite for many of you readers out there, especially those who are fans of the television show, "Glee." This is the role she's most famous for, and she played the unforgettable character, Kitty Wilde. Since getting more into the mainstream, she's matured a lot, getting more comfortable with her body and even posing for Maxim magazine! That was a huge hit with all her male fans, I'm sure. But were her personal photos leaked?
Teresa Palmer
Teresa Palmer is a real rising star in Hollywood these days, and she's someone you should really keep you eye on in the coming years, because she's going to be huge. In a way, she already is huge, as a lot of you out there probably already know who she is. This Australian model and actress is best known for her roles in films like "Warm Bodies," Mel Gibson's "Hackaw Ridge," and the remake of "Point Break." But were her photos ever leaked?
Emma Watson
Emma Watson is another celebrity who really need no introduction whatsoever. Pretty much every kid who grew up watching the Harry Potter movies absolutely loved this cute little girl as she played Hermione Granger through the years. We got to watch her blossom into a positively beautiful young lady, and our attitudes towards her have changed as well. She's no longer "cute," she's now undeniably sexy, with a strong set of values and amazing fashion sense. But was this celebrity unlucky enough to have her photos leaked?
Reese Witherspoon
Reese Witherspoon is another actress who everyone will recognize right away. This all-American, blonde bombshell lights up the screen whenever she's cast in a role, and seems like such a sweet and innocent babe. But truth be told, she's not that innocent. She's been nailed with a DUI once, and rumor has it she was pretty rude to the police officer who busted her. She's of course most famous for her role as Elle Woods in "Legally Blonde." But were her photos ever leaked?
Amanda Seyfried
Amanda Seyfried is another beautiful face that you will probably recognize, even if her equally beautiful name doesn't ring a bell. She made her big screen debut in the critically acclaimed and much-loved film, "Mean Girls," in which she played a very mean girl indeed. She's also started to make more appearances in high profile movies, such as Ted 2. Something really weird about Amanda is that she has a taxidermy collection! Yikes! But were her personal photos ever leaked?
Avril Lavigne
Avril Lavigne is another name people will probably recognize, at least those of us who grew up listening to her music as kids. Everybody has probably found themselves listening to one of her breakup anthems at some point and been shocked to find that they kinda know the words. She was a total punk girl, and the world had never seen anything like that before. Since then, she's matured a lot and lost her punk style, but she still makes music. But were her photos ever leaked?
Dwayne Wade
Dwayne Wade might seem like the person you least expect to be on this list. After all, when you think about celebrities getting their personal photos leaked, you immediately conjure up images of hot female celebrities who have found themselves in this situation... Not well-known male athletes such as Dwayne Wade. But you never know with these leaks... Anyone can be targeted, and everyone is unfortunately vulnerable. So, was this celebrity one of the unlucky ones who had their photos leaked?
Hayden Panettiere
Hayden Panettiere is another name that most of you will recognize, and I'm willing to bet a large portion of our male readers out there have major crushes on this well-known and undeniably gorgeous actress. But the real question is, did the hacker feel the same way about this well-known actress from the television show, "Heroes?" Because if he did, you can probably safely assume that he went through that iCloud database on a mission to find compromising pictures of Hayden.
Justin Verlander
Here's another male athlete that you probably didn't expect to find on this quiz. Like Dwayne Wade, he's not the kind of guy you would normally associate with leaked personal photos being released by a hacker. But, then again, you never know... Everyone is vulnerable, as I'm sure you've figured out by now. As you might be aware, Justin Verlander is married to Kate Upton. Apparently he won't have sex with her before a big game! But was he a victim of a photo leak?
Olivia Wilde
Olivia Wilde really jumped onto the scene while playing Thirteen on "House." Her bad girl attitude along with her ridiculously striking face made her a fast favorite. It also helps that she's got a killer sense of humor, evidenced by her marriage to Jason Sudeikis. Though, she's also never been scared to flaunt her stuff, having appeared nude and nearly nude in several films. It almost make a person wonder whether or not a leak from her would even be that shocking.
McKayla Maroney
McKayla Maroney is another celebrity that you've probably heard of by now, and like many other big names on this list, she's an athlete. Well, technically she used to be an athlete, a gymnast to be exact, but she's pretty much quit now due to injury. However, she's been trying to reinvent herself as a social media icon, posting a lot of sexual images including one of her in a thong. But was she unlucky enough to have her personal photos leaked by a hacker?
Scarlett Johansson
Scarlett Johansson is one star that definitely doesn't need an introduction. She's frequently been called the sexiest woman alive, and it's hard to argue with that title. Although she's sexy, she's also incredibly classy, and it's really tough to take your eyes off her once she's on the screen. She first captured audiences with her earlier, indie roles, such as her role in the film, "Ghost World." But these days, she's famous for bigger profile movies such as "The Avengers" and "Lost In Translation." But were her photos ever leaked?
Ariana Grande
Ariana Grande is another star that everyone in the world knows about, and we've been talking about her a lot lately. That's because one of her concerts in Manchester, England, was targeting by a suicide bombing by a Islamic militant, killing several, including small children and wounding several others. She was obviously shaken, but she's continued on in her own way in her career. What else can she do? But was she one of these unlucky celebrities to have their photos leaked?
Alyssa Arce
Alyssa Arce is a model that is probably pretty popular with guys right now. She's been appearing on a lot of Playboy magazines lately, and she might just be one of the hottest girls ever seen on the magazine, and that's saying something. She's also getting a lot of publicity for her Instagram page, where she shows off just as much of her hot body as she does on the pages of Playboy. It might seem like there isn't much more to show, but were her photos leaked?
Emily Ratajkowski
We all know who this incredibly sexy woman is. Her name is Emily Ratajkowski, and she started off as an Instagram model. Since then, she's sky-rocketed to the top of the entertainment world and the tips of everyone's tongues. No one can stop talking about this girl. I'm sure a lot of you caught her Sport Illustrated issue where her swimsuit was literally painted onto her body. But was she one of the unlucky celebrities to have her personal photos leaked?
Hillary Clinton
Hillary Clinton is one person on this list who is no stranger to getting hacked. She's had a lot of trouble with her email servers, and that was one of the major talking points leading up to the 2016 presidential elections. She later blamed it on the Russians, but was that really the case. In any case, the realy question is not about her emails, but her private photos that she might have stored on iCloud. Did those get hacked and leaked too?
Victoria Justice
Victoria Justice is another huge star, and a fan favorite with a ton of people. Some of her biggest fans are of the male variety, and it's no mystery why. This girl is one of the most beautiful and enchanting women alive today, and she's verging on being completely and utterly perfect. She had her start on a lot of the Nickelodeon TV series, and later on MTV's show, "Eye Candy." But has she had her personal photos leaked like so many others?
Oprah Winfrey
Oprah Winfrey might not be someone you might expect to see on a quiz like this. But if you've learned anything from filling out these questions, it's that you can never quite predict which of these celebrities has been unlucky enough to have their very personal photos leaked. So what about Oprah Winfrey? She's one celebrity that needs no introduction. She has created one of the most iconic talk shows of all time, and pretty much everyone loves her. But were her photos leaked?
Jessica Nigri
Jessica Nigri is a girl who all you comic-con fans out there are going to recognize almost immediately. She's become one of the most famous, if not THE most famous cosplayers right now, and her cosplays are sexy, creative, and impressive. There are tons of guys that are obsessed about her, especially of the more nerdy variety. So it wouldn't be a huge stretch of the imagination to think that a hacker would search out her personal photos above all others.
Jeb Bush
What? How did this one get in here? I figured I might as well finish off the quiz with a little bit of a joke... Although you never you know... His personal photos might have been leaked. He became nothing more than a laughing matter when it came to his presidential aspirations in 2016. But can you imagine if he had been taking sexy selfies the whole time? That would have been hilarious... So, was he one of the celebrities who had their photos leaked?
