Rachel McAdams Doesn’t Like Being Told What to do

Posted by Adam

Rachel McAdamsRachel McAdams was a nightmare as a teenager — because she was headstrong and didn’t like being told what to do.

The actress — who stars opposite Eric Bana in new movie The Time Traveler’s Wife — says she was a pain to live with as a teen because she never wanted to listen to anyone’s advice.

“I wasn’t terribly rebellious in the traditional sense but I guess I was very headstrong,” she said. “I don’t like to be told what to do.

“I wasn’t going out and breaking the law, I just wanted to be my own boss. But I have changed — a little bit.”

McAdams, 30, recently revealed that she doesn’t get hounded by the paparazzi.

“Besides not leaving the house, staying housebound and never seeing the light of day, I guess I just tend to go about my everyday business not bothering anyone,” she said.

“Nobody really cares that I go to the post office or buy deodorant at the drug store. No one’s really interested.

“I always used to think this was exciting stuff but no one really cares. I think if I lived in New York it would all be a little bit more high-profile, but in Toronto where I live, no one really cares.”
