Actress Scarlett Johansson doesn't Google her name any more because the results do not bring anything good.

"I've stopped Googling myself - nothing good ever comes of it. It gives you an inflated sense of yourself, too. It makes you feel like everyone is paying attention to you and they're not," she said.

According to eonline.com, the 28-year-old revealed this during a conversation with Elle Canada magazine.

"You don't know me. I don't particularly care about the romantic life of a person I don't know. I guess we're all nosy in some way... I know that people like celebrities and maybe it gives them something to dream about," she added.

Talking about the kind of work she would like to do in the future, Johansson said: "It would be such a waste to just continue to do the same thing and not take a risk. I don't have anything to lose by taking a risk artistically - I only have something to gain, even if it doesn't work out."
