Emily Blunt once labelled her\u00a0Oppenheimer<\/em>\u00a0co-star Cillian Murphy as the ‘worst celebrity in the world’.<\/p>\n

It’s a well-known fact that being\u00a0famous<\/a>\u00a0requires a lot of standing around and having your picture taken, either in public, on a red carpet or at a press event.<\/p>\n

But while most – yes, most – famous people possess exceptional talents, not all of them are naturals when it comes to the art of celebrity.<\/p>\n

And it would appear that one of those individuals is actor\u00a0Cillian Murphy<\/a>, with fans concerned that he’d skipped this year’s\u00a0Oscars<\/a>\u00a0altogether after he was absent from the red carpet.<\/p>\n

“Not Cillian Murphy skipping the red carpet,” one viewer reacted on social media, while a second added: “Cillian Murphy is pulling the Meryl Streep move and skips the red carpet.”<\/p>\n

Fortunately, the Irish actor hadn’t forgotten about the Academy Awards altogether and gave us a brief\u00a0Peaky Blinders<\/em><\/a>\u00a0reunion when he presented Adrien Brody with the Best Actor gong for his role in\u00a0The Brutalist<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Perhaps red carpets just aren’t his thing.<\/p>\n

One person who would certainly agree with the idea that Murphy doesn’t enjoy the celebrity side of being famous is Emily Blunt, who once branded the 48-year-old the\u00a0‘worst celebrity in the world’<\/a>.<\/p>\n

She shared the observation during an interview with\u00a060 Minutes<\/em>\u00a0last year, when asked if the\u00a028 Days Later<\/em>\u00a0star knew how to ‘handle a compliment’.<\/p>\n

“No, I don’t think so. I don’t know if any of the great actors know or would say that about themselves,” the actress responded.<\/p>\n

“I feel he’s always in search, he’s looking off the horizon, looking at what else [he] could do, how far [he] could push it.”<\/p>\n

Emily Blunt previously referred to Murphy as ‘the best actor in the world and the worst celebrity in the world’ (60 Minutes)<\/cite><\/div>\n

She continued: “What will satiate this creative fire in him. I think it would be so painful for him to acknowledge how good he is, I don’t see that happening.”<\/p>\n

The interviewer then suggested that Murphy was passionate about his work as an actor but not the celebrity side of things, to which Blunt agreed.<\/p>\n

“He’s the worst celebrity in the world,” she replied.<\/p>\n

“He’s the best actor in the world and the worst celebrity in the world.”<\/p>\n

Going on to explain why she believes Murphy is the ‘best actor’ in the world, the\u00a0Devil Wears Prada<\/em>\u00a0star added: “He’s my favourite actor to work with. He’s unparalleled in what he can do and how he pulls you in. The whole room crackles with a certain life force when you work with him.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
