Earlier this year someone hacked Scarlett Johansson's iPhone and stole two nude photos of the sexy actress which have now made their way onto the Internet.

One of the photos shows Ms Johansson wrapped in only a towel with an exposed backside. The other is a topless shot. The former is barely more revealing than the photo above from Vanity Fair.

A number of my readers who know that I have a thing for Scarlett (19 articles so far) have emailed me the images assuming I would republish them on my blog.

Sadly I cannot do that even though she looks quite callipyginous in one of the photos. The truth is I feel as if I would betray a trust. She did not want those photos released and so I will not do anything to make her feel uncomfortable - she has a right to a certain amount of privacy. - so I ask my readers to stop sending the photos. I have seen them and they are beautiful - but you will have to go elsewhere to view them.

Do not get me wrong - I have no problem showing Scarlett naked - for example, I published an artist's rendition of what she would look like naked in my article Most Beautiful Bosoms in Hollywood. But that is different than displaying something that was stolen.
