"Hunger Games: Mockingjay" movie actress Jennifer Lawrence has finally broken her silence a month after the leaked photo scandal broke news and dragged her name among other female celebrities.
In an interview with Vanity Fair, the 24-year-old actress admitted that she does not know how the scandal would affect her career.
"I was just so afraid. I didn't know how this would affect my career," she told the magazine.
Lawrence could not hide in words the anger and disgust she felt when the scandal ran off the news.
"Just because I'm a public figure, just because I'm an actress, does not mean that I asked for this. 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," the Oscar-winning actress said.
The "Hunger Games: Mockingjay" movie actress tempted to write an apology 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."
Apart from Lawrence, Rihanna, Selena Gomez, and Kim Kardashian were also included in a supposed-to-be targeted hacking.
Reports said the photos were from iCloud accounts of the celebrities, which were later disseminated to Reddit and 4chan.
Lawrence stressed that "it is not a scandal. It is a sex crime. It is a sexual violation. It's disgusting," she told the magazine.
While investigations were undertaken as to how the hacking had happened, Lawrence suggested that "the law needs to be changed, and we need to change. That's why these Web sites are responsible."
But the actress seems okay now.
"Time does heal, you know. 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," the "Hunger Games: Mockingjay" movie actress said.
