Ariana Grande sues alleged hackers over unreleased music leaks
The suit says 45 unreleased songs were leaked in 2023 and the hackers sold stolen files on the dark web for significant sums, Grande’s lawyers said.
- On Monday, Ariana Grande filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles against anonymous 'John Doe' hackers for a yearslong campaign stealing unreleased music and private photos from her inner circle.
- Hackers allegedly targeted digital accounts belonging to photographers and producers, facilitating 'unlawful and egregious' thefts of private content since Grande's 2011 music debut.
- The complaint details 'hundreds' of leaks since 2011, including 45 unreleased songs stolen in 2023 alone, while defendants allegedly sold the data for 'significant sums of money.'
- Grande's legal team initiated action to identify the unknown individuals through court-ordered subpoenas, aiming to hold them accountable under California invasion of privacy and computer hacking laws.
- Grande previously addressed the hackers directly in a 2024 interview, stating 'See you in jail,' after expressing frustration on the Zach Sang Show regarding unauthorized creative work circulation.
