Celebrities who gave up social networks (12 photos)

It would seem that today it is impossible to live without social networks. Some people are even truly addicted to them. And it’s stupid to deny this. Agree that it is on social networks that we find out the latest news, scroll through our favorite memes, listen to music and even watch movies. And only then do we correspond with someone. However, there are real tough nuts who flatly refuse social networks. And among them there are even celebrities. Let's see which stars stay away from them.

Jennifer Lawrence





In an interview with BBC Radio, Jennifer said:

I will never have a social media account. I'm not very good with phones or technology.

And we all remember the scandalous leak of her intimate photos. Perhaps Jennifer is being disingenuous, because this incident is the main reason.

Kristen Stewart



In an interview with Instyle, Kristen said:

Now anyone can create an account. Buy a camera and you're a paparazzi; get a Twitter account and you're a whistleblower. It's so annoying.

Daniel Radcliffe





In an interview with Hot Ones, Daniel Radcliffe admitted:

I've been thinking about making an account, and I know 100 percent that if I did, you'd all be waking up to stories like, "Dan Radcliffe hooked up with a stranger on social media."

Cate Blanchett



Cate Blanchett has never had social media accounts. She herself comments on this as follows:

I can't understand why grown people dig in this dirt.

Rachel McAdams



Back in 2009, Rachel gave an interview to People magazine. It was then that she was first asked a question regarding her ignorance of social networks. McAdams commented:

I listen to the news on the radio. I don't have a TV and I'm very bad at email.

Sandra Bullock



When asked why she cannot be found on social networks, Sandra Bullock jokingly replies that the reason for this is the film about hackers “Network”, in which she played the main role. In an interview with Jess Cagle, the actress stated:

I learned a lot on the set. I worked with real hackers, and I remember people asking me, “Does this exist? Do you think it’s really possible to order pizza from someone else’s computer?” And I answered: “Yes.”

Chris Pine



In a 2017 interview with HelloGiggles, Chris said:

I recently bought a record player and a flip phone. I just like simplicity, I just like everything uncomplicated. I don't want to be so tied to technology.

Elizabeth Olsen



For some time, Elizabeth Olsen did use social networks, but then deleted all accounts and claims that she does not regret it at all.

I thought, wait a minute, why am I even trying to create an ideal version of myself and put it out into the world? And this realization made me feel uncomfortable.

Brad Pitt



Brad Pitt claims he felt misunderstood in his younger years. He says today's aspiring actors face a lot of pressure from the public, including on social media. In a 2014 interview with GQ Magazine, Brad Pitt said:

Social networks are useful. They can help actors combat misconceptions and incorrect statements directed at them. If social media had appeared in my youth, I would have used it. But right now, at the moment, I don't want to bother with it.

Kate Winslet



Kate Winslet doesn't use social media because she believes it has a negative impact on women's self-confidence. In an interview with The Sunday Times she said:

Social media has a huge impact on the self-esteem of young women because all they do is want people to like them and hold themselves up to unattainable beauty standards. And what follows? Eating disorders. And it makes my blood boil. And this is the reason we don't have social media at home!

Keira Knightley



Keira Knightley was registered on one of the social networks. However, her stay in the virtual world lasted only 12 hours. The actress herself comments on this:

I actually signed up and only spent 12 hours on the social network because I was trying to spend time with my kids at the same time. I didn't publish anything and was under a false name. I think because Chloë Grace Moretz followed me, suddenly a lot of people started following me too and writing things like, “I'm having a cup of tea right now.” I almost went crazy.

Colin Firth



Colin Firth also doesn't use social media. In an interview with CinéSéries Originals he said:

I don't put myself out there when I'm not at work. And when I get home, I definitely don't want to post my images on social media.
