Some celebrities have been criticized by their fans for leaking their nude video to get public attention. Kim Kardashian has faced the same allegations that she herself leaked her sex video as publicity stunt. To what extent it is true , that no one knows.
So here is list of some prominent celebrities who had been victimized of
their naked videos or images publicly leaked onto the internet.
1-Kim Kardashian
Kim’s sex tape was leaked in 2017 at a time when Kim was not a big celebrity. But Kim’s tape has been viewed online more than 150 million times and Vivid has named March 2017 as Kim K. Sex Tape Month. Before this Kim was not a A-list megastar and was a little known heiress to the late lawyer Robert Kardashian, the personal stylist of singer Brandy Norwood and girlfriend of his little brother Willie “Ray J” Norwood.
On Kim’s 23rd birthday , couple went on a trip to the luxury Esperanza resort in Cabo, Mexico, and during their stay they made their video of different activities including having sex.
In March 2007, the tapes that Kim and Ray J had made were released to the public by porn company Vivid Entertainment as Kim Kardashian, Superstar, a 41-minute movie.
Kim sued to prevent it from being released before settling out of court – but the ten years since have seen the one-time stylist transform pop culture.
This is the story of that movie, beginning in the months leading up to its release.
Perez added: “Back then, one of the things that got her a lot of attention in addition to being Paris Hilton’s friend, before the sex tape and before the reality show, she was the very first girl that Nick Lachey was spotted on a date with after his split from Jessica Simpson.
“It was only one date, but of course conveniently they were photographed by the paparazzi on that date. Wonder how they found out about that!”
Kevin added: “That was one of the early stunts that backfired.
“We tried to get her to f *** Nick Lachey so she could be a celebrity girlfriend.
“She would literally bake him a basket of muffins and try to get him to come to her house and he wouldn’t go and so they went to dinner somewhere in the North Valley and we had paparazzi there.
Kim’s lawyer, Marty Singer, insists that Kardashian has never planted stories about herself in the tabloids or tipped off paparazzi about her whereabouts.
Steven Hirsch, the founder and co-chairman of Vivid Entertainment, said: “Ultimately she did sell us the footage so we had the ability to put it out and distribute it.”
Reports claim that Kim was paid $5 million (£3.98million) a figure that Kim’s attorney described as “greatly inflated.”
Steven Hirsch added: “I can only say that it’s the most popular tape we’ve ever done.
“Revenue-wise it has generated more income than any other tape that we’ve done.”

One of the most famous Australian singer and song writer who is loved by millions all over the world due to her unique , melodious voice, with exceptional vocals, mesmerizing personality and charismatic beauty.
Nonetheless, the one thing that really sets her apart from any other singers is how she decided to lead a private life. In fact, it is very much possible that you may not even recognize Sia if she were walking openly in public; due to her enormous wigs and bows covering her face, which only goes to show how the singer has safeguarded her true self.
However, the more you try to protect yourself, the more attention you attract from paparazzi, who are forever trying to get a clear shot of the artist. This is how Sia became a victim of the paparazzi who somehow managed to get a hold of her nude photographs.
That’s not even the worst part of the whole incident!
Her photos ended up being sold on the dark web, to her fans for a hefty compensation. When Sia realised that her nude pics had been leaked, she went on and posted a nude picture of herself, via her Twitter account with the caption: Save your money, here it is for free.
It may be a shame that such a legendary singer to go through such an unpleasant situation, Sia’s response, on the other hand, was well-praised.

All the pictures immediately became public on an English image-board site, 4Chan, owned by Christopher Poole.
Although the website’s owner had no hand in it, the way the website operated made it too easy for anyone to post anything, as anonymous individuals, could upload any picture they desired and get away with it, due to the lack of the requirement for an account registration and limitless options for “fake” names.
