Anderson 'not recognised' on the Tube

X-Files actress Gillian Anderson has admitted that she is rarely recognised when travelling on the London Underground.

London resident Anderson revealed that putting on a disguise when using public transport meant that she hasn't often been noticed by fans.

She is quoted by WENN as saying: "To be honest it was when I was afraid that people would recognise me that I was recognised much more. When I first arrived in London I was much more afraid of that, so I stayed in.

"But after a while I began to feel claustrophobic and thought, 'We have to get out'. So I went out very confidently, wore a hat, sat with my back to people, and the funny thing is that people would look at me and think 'Is that...? Impossible. She wouldn't ride the Tube.'"

The new X-Files movie I Want To Believe is in theatres now.
