When you've pushed through a dark a** time filled with racist and sexist trolls and come out on top, said trolls love to up the ante. They don't want Leslie Jones to be great. And the latest attack is absolutely vile. Find out how celebs are reacting inside....
A month after "SNL" star Leslie Jones was bombarded with the most hateful, completely undeserved Twitter attacks we've likely ever seen, the trolls are back.
Today on her personal website JustLeslie.com, cowardly hackers plastered nude pics that appear to be of Leslie, her passport docs, driver's license, Twitter password and more extremely sensitive information all over the page. Videos of the gorilla Harambe, who was shot and killed at a Cincinnati zoo this past May and who the disgusting attackers constantly compared Leslie to, also covered the page. The site was taken down this afternoon.
Reports state that the hackers broke into the Ghostbusters star's iCloud account to steal the information, then blasted it on her website for the world to see.
Leslie, who is usually quite active on social media, and her reps have yet to comment.
Just recently, Leslie was bombarded with racist and sexist tweets about her appearance, comparing her to gorillas and other non human things. Leslie outed everyone who joined in on the mocking and responded to the constant battering. As a result, Twitter banned Breitbart editor Milo Yiannopoulos, a right winged conservative, who was seemingly the leader of the attacks.
Leslie threw her attention into the 2016 Olympics, which she LOVES. Her hilarious commentary took over the internet and changed the conversation. It led to NBC execs flying her out to Rio to hit up the games in person and cheer on Team USA. No more than a few days after she returned to the U.S., she was hacked. We guess they're mad at her ability to wear a crown despite them trying to bring her down.
Celebs, including Ghostbusters director Paul Feig, rushed to Leslie's defense saying:
these acts against leslie jones....are sickening. its racist & sexist. it's disgusting. this is hate crimes. this aint "kids joshing round"

This @Lesdoggg attack is troubling. The rampant racism percolating in society right now is shameful and sad. She made a movie, that's it!

I truly don't know why people are so hateful towards @Lesdoggg. Why? She's talented and wonderful. Why are people so pressed to be awful?
