Jamie Lee Curtis Plans Extended Holiday Digital Detox

She says the pause reflects her support for tighter youth safeguards on social media.

Overview

  • Curtis told E! News at the Dec. 9 Los Angeles premiere of Ella McCay that she is preparing for a “really long, yummy” break from the internet and social platforms.
  • She described the step as a planned hiatus over the end-of-year period rather than an immediate sign-off.
  • The actor said she chiefly uses social media for work and to boost others’ projects but intends to pause that activity.
  • She voiced strong approval for restrictions on under-16s’ social media access in countries such as Denmark and Australia, saying she wants to practice what she preaches.
  • Her comments come during promotion for Ella McCay, which is scheduled to reach theaters on Dec. 12.
