Instagram is one of the most effective mediums for famous people to communicate with their fans and followers. On the other hand, not all of them find social media to be sufficiently appealing. It has been described by some well-known persons as being tedious, toxic, or demanding an excessive amount of energy, and these are the reasons why they do not want an account.
After joining Instagram a year ago,
Jennifer Aniston almost single-handedly brought down the internet. However, there is still a lengthy list of A-level celebrities that we hope to see on Instagram shortly. Keep scrolling to learn about eight famous people who have not yet created an Instagram account.
1. Emma Stone

Despite her status as one of Hollywood's most adored celebrities,
Emma Stone prefers to keep her private life out of the limelight. Fans would love to see more of one of the most elegant stars of her generation, but it's no surprise that she doesn't have an Instagram account. Fans recently learned about her engagement when her fiance Dave McCary posted a photo to Instagram announcing the happy news in the dead of winter. People probably hoped she'd post it on Instagram. However, what options do we have?
2. Brad Pitt

Brad Pitt is just one of many famous people that avoids using social media. Considering that his name has been a staple in tabloid rumors for the better part of the previous two decades, it stands to reason that he would wish to filter out such content. However, photos of the actor with his family and anecdotes about his time working alongside Hollywood heavyweights would be greatly appreciated. And he was probably showing Jennifer Aniston some love too.
3. Benedict Cumberbatch

To the dismay of his fans, Benedict Cumberbatch will not be joining any social networking platforms any time soon. The actor has admitted that he is a social media failure, so there's no secret reason he doesn't sign up.
"Because, as everyone knows, my participation in social media would be disastrous, I just cannot engage in it. As if my life depended on it, I will never master Twitter "According to an interview he gave to People magazine. The actor added that he thinks the atmosphere is toxic and that working there would be too draining.
4. Jennifer Lawrence

Given her reputation for zaniness,
Jennifer Lawrence would be a welcome addition to Instagram. The starlet would presumably combine shots from the red carpet with
memes and humorous pictures. There are a number of famous people that are not on Instagram, and sadly she is one of them. Actress reveals she is a "voyeur" on her hidden Instagram account. She's hardly the only famous person to create a fictitious profile. There were also unofficial social media accounts for Jennifer Aniston and Prince Harry.
5. George Clooney

He would use the account to discuss heavy topics, but he isn't keen on doing so. In a previous interview, the actor admitted, "I might easily say something dumb, and I also don't think you need to be that available."
6. Sandra Bullock

Sandra Bullock is yet another Hollywood heavyweight who presumably does not use Instagram but really should. There are numerous phony accounts posing as the actress on social media, but no real one. The actress has already stated her distaste for selfies and laziness in creating an Instagram account. "I don't have my eyes closed to the world. When I peek over someone's shoulder, I often find myself wondering, "What is that tiny scene of a cat on a fan?" You may chalk it up to laziness on my part."
7. Scarlett Johannson

Scarlett Johannson is already under so much scrutiny that she can't bring herself to share any more of her personal life on social media. She remarked in 2011 that she didn't use social media because "I can't think of anything I'd rather do less than have to regularly broadcast aspects of my everyday life." The actress never joined any social media, so she must still feel the same way after nearly ten years.
8. Kanye West

This past weekend, Kanye West—now officially known as Ye—was banned from social media for his antisemitic comments, including his removal from Instagram and Twitter. The term "antisemitism" refers to prejudice or bigotry directed at Jews.
