And, as it turns out, celebs are often in the same boat. When you think about it, it actually makes a lot of sense many stars would choose to refrain altogether. After all, they already spend a good portion of their lives in the limelight and this is one space where they can choose to maintain their privacy.

Benedict Cumberbatch Cumberbatch jokes about his own insecurities as his reason for not using social media. He told an audience of Sherlock Holmes fans at the  Cheltenham Literature Festival , “I think the reason why… I don’t tweet… if I did you’d very soon be disappointed because it really is a skill — it’
