Benedict Cumberbatch hates selfies
Press Trust of India Los Angeles 'Sherlock' actor Benedict Cumberbatch does not understand the craze for selfies among people and says he prefers enjoying the moment than capturing it in a camera.
The 38-year-old 'Imitation Game' actor, who recently announced his engagement to Sophie Hunter, will not be personally taking any photos of him and his bride on their wedding day as he finds them a 'waste', reported Us magazine.
"What a tragic waste of engagement. Enjoy the moment. Do something more worthwhile with your time, anything. Stare out the window and think about life," he said.
Cumberbatch added he hates having his every move scrutinised and has banned social media for that reason.
"I find it hard enough in my day-to-day life to give myself a context that's private or removed from constant observation. I want to keep a diary so my grandkids can have it, but I have no interest in publishing it. We're all paparazzi now. I have no appetite for it. I can't relate to the need to expose people. Now, it's so easy," he said.
