Anora star Mikey Madison is breaking the world's expectations of a typical Hollywood actress, Daily Mail writes.
While it's generally expected that starlets attend premieres, parties, and be active on social media, that isn't the path Mikey is following.
The Oscar-winner, 26, has revealed she is not on social media and doesn't ever 'regret' skipping a party.
In a Vogue Italia interview, Mikey - who recently became the ninth youngest star to win the Academy Award for Best Actress - lamented on her inclination towards seclusion, as well as the pressure she feels to appease the world by embracing a more social lifestyle.
'I'm extremely introverted, but I also have a big desire for adventure. It's a conflict I've always felt, but it's gotten worse lately,' she told the magazine.
As the interviewer shared their observations that the world has been divided amongst those who adore Mikey and those who are unaware of her, she shared: 'I feel like everything around me has changed, and I think that's increasing my need to withdraw into myself.
'It's as if I'm now aware of how I'm perceived. I'm not on social media, I never regret missing a party or a dinner, but it seems like society is forcing me to ask myself, "Should I do it too much to be happy? To be fair?" We pretend to be someone we're not to make others feel comfortable.'
Mikey has kept a relatively low-profile since earning her Oscar.
While she did host an episode of Saturday Night Live in March (in which musical guest Morgan Wallen infamously walked off the stage at the end of the show), attend their afterparty as well as a couple of events for jewelry line Tiffany's, she does not seem to be a particularly active presence on the social circuit.
Mikey controversially beat out Demi Moore for the Oscar, with the Hollywood legend the favorite to win what would have been her first Academy Award.
The actress praised Demi in a interview with The Hollywood Reporter the morning after the Oscars, revealing she reached out to the Striptease star after her win.
'I texted with Demi, who I adore. She’s one of the sweetest, kindest women I’ve ever met, and I’m so grateful that I was able to meet her and witness her brilliance and talent in person. I adore her and I can’t wait to see what she does next, what kind of characters she brings us. I think we’re all so ready and excited to see that,' she said.
