Cate Blanchett hates selfies, social media

Hollywood beauty Cate Blanchett thinks selfies are "pathetic" and says social media "sets up rivalry and jealousy".
The 46-year-old actress isn't a fan of the photo sharing app Instagram and thinks too many of people worry "about what other people are going to think" about their appearance, reported People magazine.
"People constantly are taking pictures of ourselves to send them to people to see if they like me, 'Do they like me?' It's pathetic, the whole thing about people worrying about what other people are going to think. I just can't handle it.
"Of course you want people to go see the film that you make, of course you want them to enjoy them. But I'm not out there saying, 'Do they like the way I look?'... You have to say, 'This is what I'm doing right now'," she said.

The Oscar-winning actress doesn't understand why people use other forms of social media, such as Twitter and Facebook, because she believes it "sets up rivalry and jealousy".
