Earlier this week hackers made their way into emails of Sony Entertainment executives and revealed how they truly felt about some of Hollywood’s biggest stars. Of the attacked was Kevin Hart, who was called a “whore” by executive Clint Culpepper.

In response to the words from Culpepper, Kevin Hart opened a statement on Instagram with “Knowing your self worth is extremely important people…. I worked very hard to get where I am today.” 

In the email Culpepper stated,“I’m not saying he’s a whore, but he’s a whore,” in regards to Hart’s request to be paid extra to promote Think Like a Man Too.

“I’m tempted to suggest we call his bluff. If he doesn’t do his normal routine, his film will not open as well and his brand will appear diminished and he will – in fact  – be fucking himself because we have his next 2 immediate film,” Culpepper also included in the email.
