Kristen Stewart won’t give the trolls the opportunity to come at her on social media. “It’s like you’re trampling on someone’s life without any regard. Everyone can do it now. Buy a camera and you’re paparazzi; get a Twitter account and you’re an informant. It’s so annoying.” (Photo: WENN)
Jake Gyllenhaal isn’t about the face stuck to the screen kind of life. “No one is looking up. I take that seriously,” Gyllenhaal told USA Today. “I think it’s saying something really important and a little scary.” (Photo: WENN)

Prince Harry isn’t allowed to have personal social media, but that doesn’t mean he would join Twitter and Instagram even if he could. “People are spending far too much time online and it’s like a mental running machine that they can’t get off.” (Photo: WENN)
The Olsen twins grew up under the spotlight and have had enough of blasting their personal lives to the public eye. “We’ve spent our whole lives trying to not let people have that accessibility, so it would go against everything we’ve done in our lives to not be in the public.” (Photo: WENN)
Robert Pattison blames Twitter for his lack of privacy. “When I cross a glance at someone, they hurry to get their phone out. I know perfectly well that I’m screwed and that I’m going to spend a big part of my day shaking people off. It’s frustrating.” (Photo: WENN)
Is National Social Media Day, but we know of 10 stars who won’t be celebrating this holiday.
Despite having been born in the modern technology and digital era, some celebrities are no about the social media life. We’re used to see celebrities come and go from Instagram and Twitter in an attempt to promote a new movie or an upcoming album.

Whether they are desperately clinging to the last glimpse of privacy they have left, trying to avoid the Instagram and Twitter addictions, or simply because they’re not very tech savvy, you won’t be able to find some of the top names in Hollywood like Jennifer Lawrence and Daniel Radcliff on social media.
In honor of National Social Media Day, here are 10 celebrities who think social media is toxic, or at the very least, an invasive drag. Not the best way to celebrate it but, hey—it is what it is!
