Taron Egerton Declares Social Media Hiatus to Reclaim Control and Boost Creativity
Renowned actor Taron Egerton has made a bold decision to disconnect from social media for the remainder of the year. The star of the hit film ‘Rocketman’ has expressed his growing concerns over the addictive nature of Instagram and his desire to utilize his time in more meaningful ways.
In a heartfelt message shared on his Instagram account, Egerton explained his motivations, stating, “I’m taking a break from social media for a while.

The 33-year-old actor also revealed that his excessive use of Instagram has become a hindrance to his creative pursuits. “I feel somewhat disconnected from myself. When it comes to my work, I know I have the potential for greatness, and Instagram is one of the several obstacles standing in my way. I genuinely appreciate all the kind words from everyone, but I need to distance myself from the thoughts of strangers for some time. I’m not convinced that this kind of engagement is beneficial for any of us.”
Egerton concluded his post by declaring his intention to maintain this social media break throughout the entirety of 2023. He encouraged his fans to follow suit and occasionally detach from their phones. His caption read, “Wishing you all a fantastic year ahead. And if you’re anything like me, remember to leave your f****** phone in another room more often.”
By taking this courageous step, Taron Egerton is setting an example for his fans and peers alike, emphasizing the importance of regaining control over our digital lives. His decision serves as a reminder that moments of reflection and disconnection can foster creativity and personal growth.
