HILARY Swank says the worst thing about being a famous actress is dealing with inquisitive members of the media.
The Million Dollar Baby star admits she finds giving interviews as pleasurable as having her teeth pulled.
“I have never courted fame and I don’t think I have ever been regarded as a celebrity,” Swank tells Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper in a new interview. “Of course, I do get followed by the paparazzi, but they would follow any actor because that’s their job.
“It’s not something I enjoy, but I don’t get bothered too much. The thing is that I love my job. I love being an actor. And I have had to come to terms with the fact that doing this — I suppose I must admit that that’s being a celebrity — is part of that job.”
Swank — who is currently dating her gent John Campisi, who has a six-year old son Sam — also revealed that she likes being a step-mom.
“John and I have been together for about three years, so I have known Sam for half his life,” she said. “Our relationship has developed very naturally during that time and I am really enjoying being a stepmom.
“I am a total homebody. I love to cook and have downtime with John and Sam. Home is where I recharge, it’s the one place where I can be me. Because, you know, this life can be very stressful and I often find myself in difficult environments.”
