Kiis1065 pulls down ‘inappropriate’ naked photos of actress Jennifer Lawrence
Kiis 1065 has taken down explicit photographs appearing to show a nude Jennifer Lawrence as a hacker claimed to have images of several celebrities, including Australian actress Teresa Palmer.
The radio station ran four pixelated versions of the nude shots, which have rapidly circulated online, before later replacing them with the Hunger Games star wearing a number of glamorous outfits. Other Australian news outlets including News.com.au and Pedestrian TV wrote about the pictures, but did not post them.
After pulling the pictures Kiis ran the same story with the fully-clothed shots, adding the line: “Rather than the naked pics……feast your eyes on her amazing red carpet style.”
An Australian Radio Network spokeswoman said it took the nude photos off its website “after careful consideration”.
“We decided these photos weren’t appropriate,” she said.
But while Kiis took the photos off its website, the full, uncensored version appeared was posted by a follower onto the comment thread of the radio station’s Facebook page. At the time of posting, the naked images had not been removed by the page’s moderators, after more than half an hour. The post has since been removed form the station’s Facebook page.
The saucy snaps of Lawrence were originally posted on message board website 4chan before spreading to Reddit, Imgur and Twitter.
The hacker claims to have 60 photos of Lawrence and dozens of other celebrities.
According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Lawrence’s spokesperson confirmed the images were real and said authorities were working to find those responsible.
“This is a flagrant violation of privacy,” they said. “The authorities have been contacted and will prosecute anyone who posts the stolen photos of Jennifer Lawrence.”
seems like ‘ being disrespectful is the new black’ for Kiis. Who is next of their hitlist.

This sounds like a bit of a non-event. Numerous news and gossip websites posted the images, before later taking them down. They are still very readily available online, and this will always remain the case. People need to get off their high horses.
