Jennifer Lawrence Calls Photo Hacking a “Sex Crime”
“I was just so afraid. I didn’t know how this would affect my career.”
That’s just the beginning of what Jennifer Lawrence has to say about her stolen-photos saga in the cover story of Vanity Fair’s November issue, the digital edition of which will be available Wednesday, October 8, and which hits newsstands in New York and Los Angeles on Thursday, October 9.
Lawrence originally met with
V.F. contributing editor Sam
Kashner on August 13. News broke that hackers had stolen personal photos
of her and posted them online on August 31—two weeks after the
interview and a month after her July 29 cover shoot with Patrick
Demarchelier. So Kashner followed up with Lawrence’s team in hopes of
giving the actress “a chance to have the last word.”
“I could just sense after having spent a little time with her that she would come out swinging,” Kashner tells VF.com.
The 24-year-old actress had not previously commented on the incident,
but she spoke to Kashner at length about the anger she felt. “Just
because I’m a public figure, just because I’m an actress, does not mean
that I asked for this,” she says. “It does not mean that it comes with
the territory. It’s my body, and it should be my choice, and the fact
that it is not my choice is absolutely disgusting. I can’t believe that
we even live in that kind of world. ”
She had been tempted to write a statement when news of the privacy
violation broke, she says, but “every single thing that I tried to write
made me cry or get angry. I started to write an apology, but I don’t
have anything to say I’m sorry for. I was in a loving, healthy, great
relationship for four years. It was long distance, and either your
boyfriend is going to look at porn or he’s going to look at you.”
Lawrence also addresses the legal ramifications of the hack. “It is
not a scandal. It is a sex crime,” she tells Kashner. “It is a sexual
violation. It’s disgusting. The law needs to be changed, and we need to
change. That’s why these Web sites are responsible. Just the fact that
somebody can be sexually exploited and violated, and the first thought
that crosses somebody’s mind is to make a profit from it. It’s so beyond
me. I just can’t imagine being that detached from humanity. I can’t
imagine being that thoughtless and careless and so empty inside.”
the
Hunger Games star vents her frustration not just with
the offending hackers but also with those—including people she knows—who
viewed the images online. “Anybody who looked at those pictures, you’re
perpetuating a sexual offense. You should cower with shame. Even people
who I know and love say, ‘Oh, yeah, I looked at the pictures.’ I don’t
want to get mad, but at the same time I’m thinking, I didn’t tell you
that you could look at my naked body.”
Lawrence also shares a message for the tabloid community: “You have a
choice. You don’t have to be a person who spreads negativity and lies
for a living. You can do something good. You can be good. Let’s just
make that choice and—it feels better.”
Lawrence speaks of the wrenching moment when she had to call her
father about the hack. “When I have to make that phone call to my dad
and tell him what’s happened … I don’t care how much money I get for
The Hunger Games,”
she says. “I promise you, anybody given the choice of that kind of
money or having to make a phone call to tell your dad that something
like that has happened, it’s not worth it.” She allows herself to joke a
little about that terrible moment: “Fortunately, he was playing golf,
so he was in a good mood.”
With her words now out in the open, the F.B.I. on the case, and a
billion-dollar franchise to carry over the finish line, Lawrence seems
to be regaining her footing.
“Time does heal, you know,” she tells Kashner. “I’m not crying about
it anymore. I can’t be angry anymore. I can’t have my happiness rest on
these people being caught, because they might not be. I need to just
find my own peace.”
In Kashner’s more than 3,000-word piece, Lawrence speaks extensively
about a variety of subjects, including what she needs in a relationship
(“I would so much rather be bored than excited and have passion”), her
adoration for the
Real Housewives franchise, and her love for comedian Larry David. Kashner also speaks to
Hunger Games director Francis Lawrence,
Serena
director Susanne Bier, and actor Woody Harrelson, who says of Lawrence,
“You know, it’s not terrible, people telling you you’re great; what’s
terrible is when you start believing it. She never got fucked up.”
