Ariana Grande has filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles against two unidentified individuals she alleges hacked into digital accounts belonging to photographers and producers she has worked with, stealing and leaking unreleased material. According to court documents, the hackers allegedly obtained songs, photos, videos and audio recordings from her creative process and sold some of the content on the dark web for substantial sums. The filing states that 45 unreleased songs were leaked in 2023 and that similar incidents have occurred repeatedly since 2011. Grande is seeking to identify the alleged hackers and argues the leaks have caused irreparable harm to her career and privacy.
