Sex tapes and nude photographs of celebrities have been popping up so frequently that the public has become unfazed by news that images of their favorite superstars are on the Web.
More recently, many have started to wonder which celebs are the victims of computer hackers and which ones leaked their own nude pictures.
On Sept. 16, Day 26 singer Willie Taylor became the latest singer to cry victim to having private photographs hacked.
The Bad Boy Records artist alleges that someone illegally got them from his spouse's computer.
BlackVoices.com takes a look at famous and infamous reality TV show stars of the past and present. Come on in.

"It has been brought to my attention that private and personal photos of mine are currently circulating the Web," the 'Making the Band' star said in a statement. "It is incredibly disturbing that someone with bad intentions would 
illegally hack into my e-mail account and distribute these private moments to the world."
"I ask that everyone respect the privacy of my family," the 28-year-old Illinois native continued, also offering "sincere apologies to [his] fans."
Taylor also took to Twitter to clarify the reason behind sending his wife, Niyana, the pictures. "I'm not home a lot, and that was a way we kept the excitement in our relationship," he wrote.
Taylor and his Day 26 bandmates are currently working on a follow-up to their sophomore release 'Forever in a Day.'

What is this world coming to? People have no respect for themeselves, their bodies or other people. They wa nt to show it all thinkign they look so good, so beautiful. To oyu, you make look great but, to oyhhers that may not be the case. This stuff needs to stop, have some self respect. Even with the HIV probkem women and men are still sleeping with every Tom, Dick and Hartry. Your body id your temple, keep it respectful yo oyu and others. You don not really look that good. And, people will do anything foe fame and money not thinking about how stupid and ignorant they look. Have dome self respect.

This was a whole publicity stunt. But I'm glad the men are stepping up and giving us ladies a bit of eye candy. First Jamie Foxx and now Willie Taylor. I've seen both of their pics and all I can say is ooooo lala, lol.

He sent them to his wife! Enough said! Email accounts are supposed to be private. I don't think an apology to his fans are necessary, and he certainly does not owe any explanation. Hackers need to be hacked. This is one of the worse cases of privacy invasion, next to identity theft. It makes me sick!

Its wrong yes, but once its out there its out there in Cyberworld and theres nothing that can be done about it. for all we know he could've done it on the low to get publicity because i never heard of him or dont even know who is he. not to say he did it, but when ppl dont have much of anything going on for themselves, especially in Hollyworld.... they'll do anything for attention and for somebody out there to pick up on them.
