A Florida man who allegedly hacked into the personal email accounts of Hollywood celebrities, including Scarlett Johannson and Christina Aguilera, apologized and said he was ready to face the consequences.
Christopher Chaney told Action News of Jacksonville, Fla., on Wednesday that the scheme "started as curiousity and it turned to just being addictive."
Chaney, 35, of Jacksonville, was named in a criminal indictment Wednesday by the FBI in Los Angeles.
"What did you do with the info you found in those emails?" Chaney was asked in the interview.
"Nothing, it was almost like a completely uncensored blog," Chaney said. "I wasn't saving the emails to blackmail someone."
"So, why did you do it?" he was asked.
"It started as curiosity and it turned to just being addictive," answered Chaney. "Seeing the behind-the-scenes of what's going on with the people you see on the big screen."
