Sandra Bullock is not a fan of selfies, talking pretty harshly about them in a new interview with the UK’s The Times. She compared the act of taking selfies to the vain culture of Hollywood in general.
Of course, no one posts selfies to social media showing the bad things that happen in life and only capture themselves looking their best. "We're not representing our lives truthfully," she told The Times.
"Like when you're yelling at your child, you're not taking a selfie of you being a horrible parent,” she continued. “No, you're waiting for the perfect selfie. 'Do I look thinner now?' 'Do I look great?' It's this false projection of one's life. Hollywood has now gone global. Everyone's Hollywood now."
Bullock, who now has two children after adopting her 3-year-old daughter Laila recently, went on to acknowledge the rate of depression going up because people are so fixated on other people’s seemingly “picture-perfect” lives.
"People have these worlds they post and it's about projecting an image and getting likes," she said.
"I think it's frightening for kids and young people developing who they are to have that false sense of acceptance based on an image," she continued. "How do you unravel that when it's being pushed hard?"
