Johansson speaks out about privacy

Scarlett Johansson has spoken out for the first time over the nude photos that were leaked online, calling the invasion of her privacy "unjust". The FBI are currently investigating claims of computer hacking, following the leaking of naked photos of stars. In an interview with CNN, Johansson said celebrities were no different to anyone else when it came to privacy. "Just because you're an actor... doesn't mean you're not entitled to your own personal privacy," she said. "If that [privacy] is sieged in some way, it feels unjust. It feels wrong," Johansson told the US broadcaster. Referring to her life in the spotlight, the Bafta-winning star said: "I think there are certain instances where you give a lot of yourself and finally you have to kind of put your foot down." The actress, last seen on the big screen in Iron Man 2, made her first public appearance since the pictures were leaked, at Milan Fashion Week last weekend. One leaked photo apparently taken by the actress, follow the leaking of naked photos of other celebrities including Jessica Alba. The FBI said it was investigating "the person or groups responsible for a series of computer intrusions involving high-profile figures". BBC
