Samantha Morton: Rating actors is like comparing fruit

Actress doesn't like to talk about fellow thespians

Samantha Morton changes her taste in fruit regularly

Samantha Morton says discussing actors is like commenting on fruit.

The star made the bizarre statement when asked what she thought of Sienna Miller, 26, and Keira Knightley, 23.

'I can't really comment about what I think of them as actors,' she tells thelondonpaper.

'That's like saying: "Do you like fruit?" There's lots of fruit out there and you might like some of it one day and not the next.

'My issue is not with the girls themselves, but the appetite of certain magazines to stalk them and their lives.

'Celebrity and acting don't often go hand in hand.'

Samantha, 31, recently admitted she suffered a stroke in 2006.
