Beckinsale: 'I ignore photographers'

Kate Beckinsale has revealed that she refuses to be provoked by the Hollywood paparazzi.

The British actress, who lives in Los Angeles with husband Len Wiseman and daughter Lily, said that her method of dealing with intrusive photographers is to ignore them.

She told Access Hollywood: "I sort of adopt a victim mentality in that I can't do anything about it so it's pointless throwing things and shouting.

"I just think, they're going to wait at the bottom of your road and follow you places. Hopefully you're not doing anything so spectacularly interesting like having your pants fall down, because that kind of thing tends to attract attention. It's a part of the job that I tend not to think about that much."

The 35-year-old confessed that she found it "weird" that her daughter had gotten used to the constant attention.
