Ryan Phillippe used to "obsess" over himself.
The 'Cruel Intentions' star - who was previously married to Reese Witherspoon - has admitted that he was always Googling himself when he was younger but has since stopped doing it because he was getting too involved in the "negativity".
He said: "When I was young I used to Google myself, and I don't do that stuff anymore.
"When you obsess about that kind of stuff, it's negativity and you're, y'know, you're eating it."
The 40-year-old actor and director has a new outlook on life now he's older and doesn't feel as though he needs to "please people" as much anymore.
He told the Huffington Post newspaper: "One good thing about getting older, you don't feel like you need to please people in the same ways anymore.
"I wanna try everything. I might act a little more, but I also did this human rights documentary that got some awards, and that's something I'm really proud of.
"I want to direct, I want to do this web start-up that I'm so close to being able to talk about. I want to do everything, despite people wanting to put me in a box. I want to try everything."
