Simon Pegg Warns Off Fame Wannabes....
British funnyman Simon Pegg shuns the limelight - because courting publicity is like swimming with sharks.
The Hot Fuzz star hates being famous - but insists anyone who craves it deserves the coverage they get.
He says, "I don't seek fame. People take it on unwisely and it's a monster in a way. If they go out there and court it, it's like wading into a shark-infested pool with a cut leg, then they complain when they get their leg bitten off. The key is not to go swimming in the first place."
Meanwhile the British funnyman Simon Pegg would like to swap acting for a more low-key role in showbiz - he wants to become a director.
The Shaun of the Dead actor wrote and starred in a number of British television shows before making the move into Hollywood movies, and is now considering working behind the camera.
And the star confesses the reason he wants to start directing is because he is sick of all the crap he has to deal with as an actor.
He says, "I think I'm ready now because I have a lot of ideas of my own. Part of me just wants to do that (directing) and f**k off out of the limelight.
