Leslie Jones is assuring her fans that she's doing well in the aftermath of last month's vicious and hate-filled hacking of her website.
The SNL star thanked her friends and followers for their support a little over a week after a hacker cracked into her website and uploaded personal information and what appeared to be private nude photos.
"Thanks to my fans and friends! I'm soooooo ok really," she tweeted Sunday, without specifically addressing the incident. "And I will always be funny been through a lot in my life and I ALWAYS GET BACK UP!"
Jones returned to tweeting on Saturday evening for the first time since the scandal, using several of her posts to offer up some humorous commentary as she watched an episode of "The Golden Girls."
Jones' website remains down, and the hack is still being investigated by the Department of Homeland Security.
