You must have read or heard about the salacious scandals involving well-known celebs and their private photos being leaked online due to the dirty work of immoral internet hackers. Stolen straight from the cloud or some secret cyberspace, these pics, obviously meant for personal purposes, were on full display for the entire world to view, judge, and admire.

Some of the biggest and most popular Hollywood stars have had their private photos leaked over the years which was surely embarrassing, shameful, and maddening for them when they had intended for these precious pics to be for their significant other to enjoy or simply for their eyes only. Harmful hackers did the unthinkable and stole these saucy shots for their own pleasure and gain and shared their loot for interested and curious viewers sitting at home on their couches with nothing better to do than sneak a peek.

Not that this scandal is the celebs’ fault to any degree, but after all the talked-about hacking in Hollywood, you would think they may have thought twice before snapping those steamy shots on their smart devices. Nothing is 100% safe or fool-proof in this world – privacy of photos most certainly included.

Here are 16 celebs who have had their racy pics hacked and smacked right onto the web. But after seeing these not-too-flattering images of the celebs, it does makes you wonder who really needs to see their hacked pics in the first place. See for yourself and ask yourself if you would be interested in seeing any of these 16 celebs in the buff...

16 Kaley Cuoco – The Big Reveal For The Big Bang Theory Blonde

Huge TV star, Kaley Cuoco, is one of the highest-paid actresses on the small screen, but by the looks of this unflattering photo, it does not seem like the actress spends much of her mega-money on her appearance whatsoever. Granted, this pic could have been snapped on an off day, but she could have at least combed her hair… she is in public, after all. But with major fame comes lots of interest, so when a not-so-PG photo of the star was found by hateful hackers, they released it for the whole world to see. But if someone were to entice you with a nude pic of a random person and showed you a photo like this one of the bedraggled Cuoco, would you care to see what was underneath that schlumpy sweatshirt?

15 Blake Lively – Gossip Over Gossip Girl’s Leaked Pics

We have loved actress Blake Lively for years. Her long blonde hair is lovely, she is tall and fit, and her face is truly model-level gorgeous. She lands some of the most coveted roles and we adore watching the beauty on the small or big screen. She takes the red carpet by storm in her designer looks and seems to get better looking with each passing year. She, too, was hacked, and her racy photos made their way to the internet for interested eyes to see. Normally, it is obvious why a fan would be curious as to what is under Lively’s clothing, but if this pic was the example of what she normally looks like, the interest may not be as strong. No wonder they say, “It ain’t easy being green.”

14 Emma Watson – Harry Potter Star’s Hot Shots

Fans have watched the lovely Emma Watson grow up from adorable child actress to major grown-up A-list star. She went from innocent and cute to mature and sexy right before our very eyes. Perhaps she was in a particularly playful mood one evening and decided to take some sultry snapshots for herself or her special someone at the time. Well, those alluring pics went much further than that and they were leaked on the web for everyone to see. Interested fans and internet viewers were able to catch a sinful glimpse of Watson in nothing but her birthday suit, leading to obvious embarrassment and mortification. But what if Watson always went around town looking as she does in this boring and blah pic. Would fans still fancy her?

13 Rihanna – Hacked Pics Posted Without The Popstar’s Permission

Singer and super-performer, Rihanna is considered one of the sexiest entertainers out there today, so it is not a huge surprise that she had taken some racy pics of herself at one point or another. Surely, she did not mean for them to get leaked to the public by a haunting hacker, but nothing is 100% safe when it comes to the online universe. Certainly, fans would love to see their fave star in the buff, but take a look at this awfully awkward shot of RiRi. If this odd angle was how she looked all the time, the fan base of interested “Peeping Toms” would surely dwindle by the thousands. Everyone has a bad day, but even the singer herself probably wishes her face was hidden under an “Umbrella.”

12 Mila Kunis – The Swan’s Steamy Pics Secretly Sent

Ashton Kutcher’s wife, Mila Kunis, usually looks amazingly awesome. She has a great and fit body, a gorgeous, model-like face, and lovely brunette hair. She is considered to be one of the hottest A-list actresses around, both for her sheer talent on screen and her overall timeless beauty. Like these other stars on our list, her pics in the buff were unfortunately hacked and leaked online for all the world to see. But take a gander at this messy pic of the usually well-put together actress. She looks like taking R-rated pics is the last thing on her mind, and quite frankly, not too many people would want to see them. Of course, Kutcher would be happy with having the only set of eyes that get to see his honey in her birthday suit.

11 Vanessa Hudgens – The High School Musical Star’s Scandal

When we think of actress Vanessa Hudgens, we recall a cute teen-turned-lovely young lady who always looks bright, beautiful, and bubbly. But this not-great pic of the star reveals anything but those fine qualities. Here, the celeb looks downright drab, dull, and disinterested. Maybe she was suffering from a case of the flu or she was shooting a film where her character had to look a hot mess. Some folks may not even recognize Hudgens looking so un-glam. And the baseball cap doesn’t help. Needless to say, Hudgens is on our celeb list because her nude pics were leaked. If she always looked as ho-hum as she does in this unflattering pic, not a soul would wonder how she looks behind closed doors. Is this the version of Vanessa that gets your blood boiling?

10 Amber Rose – Rose Exposed Even More!

Amber Rose is all about embracing her sexuality and claiming her voluptuous and curvaceous body as her own – which she ought to. She has led numerous marches in the name of women’s rights and sexual expression. It is not a shock that she had taken X-rated pics of herself and attempted to use them for her own purposes, whatever they may be. But that was not to be. Her revealing pics were hacked and leaked for the world to view even more of the celeb than they had already seen. Surely Rose was not thrilled about this violation, and would love to give the hacker a taste of his or her own medicine. But if the normally alluring Rose looked like she does in this frumpy photo, would anyone care to see what is underneath that tie-dyed frock? We think not.

9 Erin Andrews – Hotel Horror For This Sports Hottie

The news of sports reporter Erin Andrews made national headlines when she was violated in her hotel room by a “Peeping Tom” who took pics of the beauty while she was getting dressed and posted them on the internet. Word spread like wildfire and thousands of internet users were able to sneak a peek of the tall blonde in all her glory. She was humiliated and horrified to say the least about the entire ordeal. Completely mortified, she took her case against the man and the hotel to court. She won a whopping amount of money and felt vindicated. Why the man went after her is questionable, but it is likely because he found her to be a ravishing beauty – which she normally is. But if she always looked like the gal at the grocery store as she does in this plain pic, the moron who leaked her pics may have picked another victim.

8 Kirsten Dunst – Intimate Pics Of The Spider-Man Star

Actress Kirsten Dunst usually looks like a California fresh-faced cutie with her sunny blonde hair and captivating smile. She, too, took intimate photos of herself and meant for them to be kept private. But as hackers do, one stole her pics and leaked them on the web for everyone to view. The Spider-Man sweetie must have been totally outraged and highly embarrassed, as she may be sexy and pretty, but she surely doesn’t need the whole world seeing her every nook and cranny. But it is hard to tell the star is even remotely hot in this ho-hum ensemble of jeans and a hooded sweatshirt. Her hair is sloppy and she looks like a run-of-the-mill “Average Jane.” Would you be interested in viewing her leaked pics if she always looked like she was dressed to take out the trash?

7 Scarlett Johansson – High-Profile Hack Attack On This A-Lister

Oh Scarlett! For such a ravishing young woman, this unflattering photo does you no justice at all. That wild hair is a scare and the boring T-shirt does nothing for your feminine curves. Normally, we know Scarlett Johansson as a true beauty, shining brightly on the big screen like the stunner she is. It is no surprise that when a hacker found her nude pics, he leaked them for the world to see. Not that the actions were justified, but surely the hacker was seeking celebs who are considered hot. But if the actress normally looked like this- all sloppy and average - she would not be considered the sex symbol she has become. This photo could not possibly get anyone all hot and bothered. Are you still impressed with the A-lister?

6 Kanye West – West Undressed… We’re Unimpressed

Kanye West gives off the impression that he believes he is the best thing since sliced bread. And knowing him, he probably has a lot of criticism for the high-carb food. With his narcissistic ways, it is no surprise that there have been racy pics taken of the rapper. He probably lines his mansion walls with them like wallpaper. But the control-freak surely did not mean for his private pics to be stolen and posted online for all the world to judge. Like him or not, West seems to be in relatively good shape and probably has a decent body, but in this pic, it looks like the rapper is not feeling all too hot. Does anyone care what lies underneath that maroon velvet sweatshirt? Aside from Kim, of course.

5 Miley Cyrus – “Party In The U.S.A.” Peep Show

Miley Cyrus has gone through many phases in her long career, from adorable TV darling to near-nude stage performer. She loves, or at least used to love, sticking out her tongue as she gyrates in skimpy clothing for shocked audiences. The singer/actress seems to be open and comfortable with her body and the skin she’s in, so the fact that she took some private pics does not exactly shake up our world. But she definitely did not mean for them to be leaked (we assume), so Cyrus makes the growing list of celebs who’ve been hacked. But in this pic, Cyrus looks nothing like what we are used to, and frankly, she is not giving off a vibe that is even close to sexy. If she always looked like this, would you care to see her hacked pics?

4 Chris Brown – More Trouble For The Bad Boy

As if Chris Brown couldn’t land himself in more hot water, the infamous entertainer’s info was hacked and naughty pics surfaced of the bad boy. Known as much for his chart-topping music as his well-publicized deviant behavior, Brown had his most intimate photos stolen and posted on the web for inquiring eyes. Despite his frequent trouble with the law, plenty of female fans still adore the musician and would likely be tempted to sneak a peek at his goods. But look at this unsettling pic of the troublemaker in his not-too-fashionable orange prison garb. Is an inmate really someone to admire? Whatever is under that potato sack may as well stay covered up. Would you want to see bad boy Brown in the buff?

3 Jennifer Lawrence – Hunger Games Bombshell In Hollywood Hack

Jennifer Lawrence is one of the hottest A-listers of the moment. Her raw talent is unstoppable and the roles keep coming in for blockbuster films. She is sure to be a red carpet fixture for years to come. Unfortunately, she was one of the popular celebs who had her private pics hacked and posted on the web. Of course, this must have rattled the young actress, and anyone in her shoes (or lack of shoes) would have likely felt the same way. Fans are always interested in Lawrence no matter the topic, so knowing her nude pics were made available online must have been intriguing to say the least. But after seeing this not-so-smashing shot of the star in her bikini, do you really need to see any more? You be the judge.

2 Gabrielle Union – Naughty Shots Stolen From iCloud Being Gabbed About

Gabrielle Union is a talented actress and is considered to be one of the hottest babes in Hollywood today. But that is when she is all done up in hair and makeup while dressed in the coolest designer clothing. Here, while she looks fresh and youthful, sexy does not come to mind at all. She basically looks like any person you may know, taking a trip to the grocery store for a can of peas and some cereal. But like the rest of the stars on this list, Union had taken private pics at one time or another and they were hacked and leaked. This innocent-looking version of Union makes it hard to imagine a sultry photo of her. After seeing this pic, would you want to peruse the actress from the neck down?

1 Hope Solo – Sensual Snapshots Of This Soccer Star

Athlete Hope Solo is known best for her impressive skills on the soccer field, not for her sexy pics. But in this case, the ball has dropped and so have her pants. Not-so-PG pics of the soccer star were leaked on the internet and everyone had the chance to see the star in something other than her soccer uniform… nothing! Who knows who the racy pics were meant for, but surely Solo didn’t snap them for the public’s viewing pleasure. She may be in the public eye, but covered up. Many find Solo to be sexy, but we wonder what they think of her in this pic. Sure, she is in the middle of playing, but that expression and her head-to-toe coverage makes the soccer star less-than-appealing. Are you ga ga over the goalie in this photo?
