Robert Downey Jr. loves "Googling" himself

Bang

The 'Iron Man' actor enjoys seeing what people have written about him on the internet, even if the comments are negative.

When asked if he ever Googled himself, Robert replied: "Oh, I love all that sh*t, personally. Sorry. I just love it. Because it's a hoot. Some people overstate their support, like they know you.

"Other people are busy doing something else and just want to go on this chat site and say some despicable character assassination, and sometimes they absolutely nail it!

"I do have that shortcoming. But it's really fun."

Actress Anne Hathaway also searches for herself on the internet, but is embarrassed to admit to her obsession.

Asked the same question, Anne replied: "No. OK, I have a confession. I lied before when you asked if I Googled myself. I do. I embarrassed by it because I know how terrible it is."
