Nude Ellen Adarna photos from magazine shoot leak online

MANILA, Philippines – “Yesterday I received good and bad news. Today will be a f***king good day. Moving on.”

 

This is how Ellen Adarna greeted the news on her Instagram account on Wednesday that her nude photographs from a photo shoot with men's magazine Esquire Philippines were leaked online.

 

Some of the alleged leaked nude photos of Ellen were published on a popular gossip blog site on Wednesday, September 17.

 

The ABS-CBN actress appeared partly nude on the cover on the April issue of Esquire Philippines.

 

 

In a statement issued to media outfits, Esquire Philippines said it “condemns the unauthorized distribution of Ellen Adarna originally taken from a shoot the magazine staged for its April 2014 edition.

 

“The recent circulation of such sensitive photos without her (or our) knowledge or consent is in blatant violation of her privacy, and her right to dignity. We share her outrage; we are deeply angry; we will not hesitate to take the appropriate legal action,” the statement reads.

 

It added, “The images in question, staged with photographer Jake Versoza, were never used in the magazine itself, and in most cases, were never even in the possession of the magazine. The images we did use from the shoot were treated to make sure any sensitive areas were artfully covered or obscured, as had been the agreement.”

 

Ellen was recently cited as among the 10 best performances for an actress last year for the 32nd Luna Awards.

 

Here is the Esquire Philippines' complete statement:

 

“Esquire Philippines and Summit Media condemn the unauthorized distribution of photographs of Ellen Adarna that were originally taken from a shoot the magazine had staged for its April 2014 edition. She had agreed to be featured in Esquire Philippines with the understanding that no nude photographs taken of her then would be published or disseminated. The recent circulation of such sensitive photos without her (or our) knowledge or consent is in blatant violation of her privacy, and her right to dignity. We share her outrage; we are deeply angry; we will not hesitate to take the appropriate legal action.

 

“The images in question, staged with photographer Jake Versoza, were never used in the magazine itself, and in most cases, were never even in the possession of the magazine. The images we did use from the shoot were treated to make sure any sensitive areas were artfully covered or obscured, as had been the agreement.”

 

“It is apparent as well to Esquire magazine that its own rights, as well as that of photographer Jake Versoza, have been infringed. We will take the proper measured action to protect its rights. Most importantly, we urge all not to participate in the dissemination of sensitive images that were not intended for public by the one person whose rights and dignity above all else’s should be respected at this time.”
