Well, that’s not something you hear everyday! HBO is taking action against PornHub for a breach of copyright after sexy scenes from Game of Thrones appeared on the website.
According to HBO, several scenes from the fantasy series — which is known for pushing the boundaries with its nudity, sex and violence — were uploaded to the pornographic website, in addition to parodies of porn stars imitating characters such as Lord Varys (Conleth Hill), Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey) and Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke).
“HBO is aware of the issue and is in the process of getting material taken down from PornHub,” the premium cable network said in a statement to The Sun on Wednesday, June 1.
PornHub recently released data stating that searches for Game of Thrones were “slightly above average” in the month of April, but “shot up in the days before the season premiere” on April 24, peaking at 370 percent.
“More specific searches include Walk of Shame, referring to a scene in which the character Cersei was forced to walk naked through the town,” PornHub revealed last month.
The website also stated that Clarke, 29, was the top search amongst all of the show’s actors.
