George Clooney has decided not to search his name on the internet, because he fears reading “brutal” critiques about himself.

After suffering a negative World Wide Web experience, the Leatherheads actor admits he prefers to take the ‘ignorance is bliss’ method and avoid reading what “angry people” have to say about him in blogs.

He explains: "A few years ago, I went to check out this website that someone had talked about. There's like, a thousand people sitting in dark rooms trashing you. Brutal! You're like, 'Wow, dude'.

"You see way too many angry people (on the internet). I remember getting off the machine and thinking, 'Never, ever again'. I'd rather live in my own happy, quiet world where I think that everyone is nice."
