Jessica Chastain vows never to date an actor

Jessica Chastain refuses to date fellow actors because she is too worried about the attention she would attract as one half of an all-star couple.

The actress once stepped out with another celebrity, but Chastain was so fearful about the possibility of being photographed she pledged never to have a famous boyfriend again.

She tells Britain's InStyle magazine, "I have a rule. No actors. I have dated an actor before, at Juilliard (acting school), but since then, I've only been on a couple of dates with one and I was so freaked out someone was going to take a picture of us, because they were famous.

"I realized I wanted just to be able to hang out with someone... And I didn't want to talk about the business, first of all. I love movies. But I love talking about them like when I was 15 years old. I'm a film fan, but I don't want to talk about auditions or what movie I'm gonna do. I find that so boring."

Chastain refuses to detail her current relationship, but adds, "If you fished around enough, you could find some information. To be honest, I never talk about it. Some people in the fashion world know, though."
