Notoriously secretive actress Scarlett Johansson spoke out last week about her personal life, her divorce with Ryan Reynolds and her nude photo leak earlier this year.

In September, a number of nude pictures of Johansson were leaked on the internet. The pictures had been taken from her cell phone. The alleged hacker who was arrested in October was charged with accessing her email account as well as the accounts of other celebrities like Christina Aguilera.

Johansson spoke out about the leak Monday on the Late Show with David Letterman. She claimed she had taken the pictures for her husband at the time, Ryan Reynolds, three years prior.  

When asked about the leak, Johansson laughed and said, "They were out there for all the world to see. Which was, uh, unfortunate, really."

The 27-year-old actress talked lightheartedly on the show, but it is clear she was unhappy about the leak.

"I don't know why I'm laughing. It was terrible," she explained.

Letterman continues to ask her about the leak and she explains that the "creepy" hacker had been watching her email account for months. The password would frequently change and the frustrated actress did not understand what was happening to her account.

"[The hacker] was there constantly, every 20 seconds. I don't know just sitting there all pasty and sweaty and pervy and weird. And that's the creepiest thing for me," said Johansson.  

Johnasson, who is known for wanting to keep her personal life out of tabloid magazines, told USA Today that she is irritated when the world knows the details of her life.

"The hardest part is actually going through whatever hardship you're facing. Going through it in public is the added unfortunate thing," she told USA Today. "There's nothing you can do about that. It's just nice to have kind of a blinder up in that regard. It helps keep you sane. I can't follow all that stuff. It's too exhausting."

Johansson also opened up later in the week to People Magazine about her recent divorce with Ryan Reynolds. The pair was married in September 2008 after dating since 2007. On Dec. 14, 2010 the couple separated and the divorce was finalized in July of this year.

When asked if she plans to remarry, Johansson told People that she is mainly focusing on herself.

"I have no idea. I don't X things off. I don't know. Life is long," she said. "It's been nice to just focus on that and to focus on myself. There's something quite refreshing about it."
