Yesterday, Leslie Jones’ personal website was hacked, with nude photos and personal information posted. Many have come out to show their support, including Ghostbusters’ director Paul Feig.
Feig called the attacks on Jones an ‘absolute outrage’ and labelled the criminals as ‘sad’:
What's happening to @Lesdoggg is an absolute outrage. Alt right, haters, trolls, "comedians," whoever the fuck you all are, you're just sad.

Jones’ passport and drivers license were released as well as personal nude images. The photos reportedly were hacked through her iCloud account.
Other celebrities also showed their support for Jones, and none bigger than Katy Perry:
Do not give your eyeballs to this racist, hate-filled, misogynoir crime. I #StandWithLeslie ❤️

Jones was recently subject of racist abuse on Twitter which left the actress ‘with tears and a very sad heart’:
I feel like I'm in a personal hell. I didn't do anything to deserve this. It's just too much. It shouldn't be like this. So hurt right now.
