Maybe that&#8217;s because I don&#8217;t take any bull****.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The 21-year-old, who used to date Glee&#8217;s Dianna Agron, went on to refer to Los Angeles a &#8216;s***hole&#8217; and used a misogynistic expletive to describe those who live in the city.<\/p>\n<p>Pettyfer said: &#8216;I wish I had some interesting stories about living in L.A., but mostly I just do my work and then go home. Being an actor is like being in prison.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;You go, you serve your time, you try and replicate Johnny Depp&#8217;s career and then you move to Paris.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>He added: &#8216;I think my Wikipedia is full of bull**** because I actually don&#8217;t have anything cool or interesting to be said about me.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I think L.A. is this insidious pool where nearly everyone lives in fear&#8230;Geographically it&#8217;s fantastic&#8230;but socially it&#8217;s disgusting.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>In a rather vulgar revelation, he also announced that he has a tattoo above his crotch that reads &#8216;Thank You.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;In case I forget to say it,&#8217; he says with a wink.<\/p>\n<p>Th actor&#8217;s split from Agron earlier this year was surrounded by controversy, with sources claiming she was &#8216;terrified&#8217; of him.<\/p>\n<p>The 24-year-old actress, who plays Quinn Fabray on the Fox hit series, moved out of the home the two shared in February.<\/p>\n<p>His rising career has been marred by whispers of bad behaviour too.<\/p>\n<p>Industry insiders told America&#8217;s People magazine in earlier this year that Pettyfer is &#8216;talented, but he&#8217;s just immature and opinionated.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Alex is not good around big groups of people. He likes to be alone,&#8217; the source added. &#8216;He&#8217;s very isolated and he has a bad temper.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>There were also reports of extreme tension between the actor and director D.J. Caruso on the set of I Am Number Four last year.<\/p>\n<p>He allegedly demanded to renegotiate his $250,000 deal when he discovered another actor was making more, and has also been accused of going missing from important marketing meetings for Beastly, according to The Hollywood Reporter.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/6d03c544493_233x423.jpg-150x150.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Go here to read the rest:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/tvshowbiz\/article-1381567\/Hollywood-socially-disgusting--like-prison-British-actor-Alex-Pettyfer-lets-rip-foul-mouthed-rant.html?ITO=1490\" title=\"'Hollywood is socially disgusting... it's like prison': British actor Alex Pettyfer lets rip in foul-mouthed rant\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">&#8216;Hollywood is socially disgusting&#8230; it&#8217;s like prison&#8217;: British actor Alex Pettyfer lets rip in foul-mouthed rant<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> By Daily Mail Reporter Last updated at 4:25 PM on 28th April 2011 A lot on his mind: British actor Alex Pettyfer British actor Alex Pettyfer has called Los Angeles &#8216;socially disgusting&#8217; and compared acting to being in &#8216;prison&#8217;.
