American comedian Leslie Jones ridiculed the hackers who released intimate photos of her, during a sketch on Saturday Night Live (SNL).<\/p>\n
The Ghostbusters star, who has been subjected to racist online abuse, had her private photos and documents posted online in August.<\/p>\n
But she told SNL’s television audience the attacks were “nothing”.<\/p>\n
“At a certain point you stop being embarrassed and start being you,” she said.<\/p>\n
Jones, who is a regular cast member on the show, addressed the topic passionately during the “weekend update” segment.<\/p>\n
“All they did was release some nude pics of me – which is nothing, because, I don’t know if you all know this about me, but I ain’t shy,” she said.<\/p>\n
“I am very comfortable with who I am. I am an open book,” she said, before telling anyone who wanted to see her naked to “just ask”.<\/p>\n
