Gordon Ramsay struggles to cope with the "nonstop attention" that comes with fame.
The celebrity chef has revealed he is always recognised wherever he is in the world, but he finds being famous is worse in America as he's constantly recognised because of his British accent.
He told The Times newspaper: "Fame brings nonstop attention. There’s nowhere in the world where I’m not recognised, but America is a different beast. I can put on a cap and dark glasses in the UK, but over there, the moment you open your mouth they recognise the accent and you’re screwed."
Gordon went on to insist he has learned to ignore his critics over the years but he's adamant he'll always defend members of his team.
He added: "I don’t give a f*** what the critics say. I’ve been criticised more than any chef on the planet and I’ve developed the skin of a rhinoceros.
"But I’ll always defend my team if they’ve been hurt by a flippant remark or derogatory comment. You have to go in to bat for your team, right?"
