Actress Amber Heard does not want her personal life to make headlines and wants to be known for her work as an artist.

Heard's relationship with actor Johnny Depp has recently been in the limelight

"It's not part of my professional life. I want to be an artist. I don't want to be a celebrity," femalefirst.co.uk quoted her as saying.

"You can find pictures of me pumping gas, picking up dry cleaning, walking my dog, but nowhere are you going to find pictures of me hanging around at some nightclub," she added.

The 27-year-old is known for her work in movies like "The Joneses", "Zombieland" and "The Rum Diary".

 

"Can you ever imagine yourself in a situation like Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie or Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, where the world feels like they have a stake in your private life? I would never want it," she said.

She won't change her basic nature either.

"I guess, I could not hold hands with who I want to, but what kind of life would that be? I don't want to change just because people are watching," she said.
