All aboard the excuse train!!!! The guy behind the highly publicized phone-hacking scandal is sorry. He says his fascination became an addition. (An addiction to naked ladies, apparently, because it resulted in nude photos pf Scarlett Johnsson being posted online.)

All aboard the excuse train!!!! The guy behind the highly publicized phone-hacking scandal is sorry. He says his fascination became an addition. (An addiction to naked ladies, apparently, because it resulted in nude photos pf Scarlett Johnsson being posted online.)

Christopher Chaney offered a ‘my bad’ sorta apology  to stars like Scarlett Johansson and Mila Kunis, saying he had become “addicted” to breaking into the cell phones of stars and posting online nude photos of them because it gave him a thrill.

He says, according to E! Online:

“I deeply apologize. I know what I did was probably one of the worst invasions of privacy someone could experience… And these people don’t have privacy to begin with. And I was in that little sliver of privacy they do have….I’ve had like six months to think about it. It eats at me,” Chaney said. “When you’re doing it, you’re not thinking about what’s going on with who you’re doing it to.”

35 year old Chaney has been charged with 26 counts of identity theft, unauthorized access to a protected computer and wiretapping. Hope the thrill was worth it – he faces up to 121 years in prison if he’s convicted.

Chaney also said: “[The hacking] started as a curiosity and it turned into just being addicted to seeing the behind-the-scenes of what’s going on with these people you see on the big screen every day… It was almost reading, like, a completely uncensored blog. I wasn’t saving the emails to blackmail someone.”

The list of celebs he allegedly hacked is impressive – he should work for a magazine! The include Jessica Alba, Christina Aguilera, Miley Cyrus and Vanessa Hudgens.

Right or wrong, how he allegedly did this was impressive: says Eonline: “According to authorities, Chaney was able to infiltrate the stars’ Yahoo, Gmail and Apple accounts by using clues gleaned from their lives and social media sites to access their passwords. Once in, he was able to expand his targets by using the celebrities own contact lists.”

Is this nuts or what?
