Recently, actress Willow Shields, who plays Primrose Everdeen (the sister of Katniss Everdeen portrayed by Jennifer Lawrence) in the “The Hunger Games” series, personally uploaded her “nude” images to social media. At the same time, she attached a lengthy post responding to the threats made by a hacker who was using her private photos to blackmail her.
The actress stated: “I was blackmailed because of some sensitive images of mine that I shouldn’t have shared with the world. I am taking back control and sharing it with everyone first. This is the photo that the hacker sent me along with threats that they would make it public on the internet.

I will not feel ashamed for this action because it is my body…”
