Zoe Saldana's tough experience with cyberbullying

Press Trust of India  |  Los Angeles 

Actress says she has experienced her fair share of cyberbullying but insists that won't stop her from sharing things with her followers.

The 38-year-old "Guardians of the Galaxy" actress says despite being a star, she isn't immune to receiving hate online, reported InStyle magazine.



"Of course, social media, as we all know, has a dark side. Cyberbullying is a growing epidemic (I've experienced my fair share). But no matter what happens, or what the reaction may be, I am not going to stop sharing. That's not to say that I haven't learned a thing or two along the way.

"I am working to reshape the way I want to say things, and I know how important it is to choose your words wisely. The truth is, we're living in a soundbite era. People aren't interested in the conversation of something, they just want the headline of it. So, that means that I just have to be a little wiser in the way I express myself.
