"Chuck" and "24: Live Another Day" actress Yvonne Strahovski took to Instagram to deny her alleged nude photos:

"It is with great sadness and disappointment that I address this hacking issue. To my fellow actresses whose privacy has been invaded - my heart goes out to you. I'm so disappointed that there are people in the world who feel the need to commit these criminal acts. Some of these pictures are fake, my own included. Regardless - I ask you all - do not share the links. Don't even look at the photos. Just let people have the privacy they deserve. Integrity is sacred."
