The actress spoke freely about how 'men don't have the benefits of equality either' in her powerful HerForShe speech at the U.N. Now, Internet trolls are saying she'll be the next celebrity to be exposed.
Emma Watson could be next.
That's the threat being posed against the 24-year-old actress by a pitiful hacker who's indicating Watson's stolen, private photos will soon be posted on 4chan, the online message board that also hosted nude images of other celebrity women.
It's unclear whether the Watson snapshots will be nude, but it's a lucky guess they won't be pics of her walking in the park.
These cowardly threats follow her empowering speech about feminism, in which she insisted the movement also includes men.
"I've seen young men suffering from mental illness unable to ask for help for fear it would make them look less 'macho,'" the "Harry Potter" star and UN Goodwill Ambassador said in the "HerForShe" speech over the weekend that's since gone viral.
"Men don't have the benefits of equality either," she continued. "We don't often talk about men being imprisoned by gender stereotypes, but I can see that they are and that when they are free, things will change for women as a natural consequence."
Unfortunately, the Brown University graduate's words came with consequences from an online wimp, who set up a website, "Emma You Are Next," that features a countdown timer to the big reveal of Watson's personal photos.
"Never forget, the biggest to come thus far," the anonymous online prowler wrote on the site
Other victims of this hateful crime are Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton, Rihanna, Kim Kardashian and Gabrielle Union.
Union and her husband, NBA star Dwyane Wade, issued a statement after their private photos were exposed.
