    Susan Sarandon avoids Google

    Susan Sarandon is terrible with computers and has never conducted a Google search of herself.


    Susan Sarandon has never Googled herself.

    The 'Thelma and Louise' actress is a technophobe and claims she wouldn't even know how to conduct a search for herself on the internet if she did use a computer.

    She told the New York Post newspaper: "I wouldn't even know how to Google myself. I don't know how to touch a computer."

    She added that reviews of her work, either bad or good, don't matter to her as she doesn't count them as "real".

    She explained: "I don't want to know. Even stuff that's really good shouldn't get stuck in your head, because it's not real."

    Susan is fronting a new campaign against cyber bullying, and thinks people need more awareness of internet 'Trolls' - people who dedicate time to abusing people on the web - and need to be dealt with.

    She added: "Usually the people that have time to go online and sit there and be negative are such losers. But, of course, you can't understand that when you're a kid."

    While she is not great with computers, liberal anti-war activist Susan claims her phone has previously been bugged by the US government, after making two Freedom of Information Act requests.

    She previously said: "We know we're under surveillance. I was denied a security clearance to go to the White House and I don't know why. Do you know why?"

    Although Susan claims she has no idea why she is under surveillance by the US government, her outspoken campaigning against the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and her activism in political campaigns since the 1980s could be responsible.
