Kate Hudson is giving insight into how she copes with negativity on social media as a public figure.

In a TikTok video shared on April 15, the Almost Famous actress applied makeup while telling her followers about advice she gave older brother Oliver Hudson to deal with naysayers online.

"He was talking about how he's afraid to say anything because he feels like things get picked up negatively ... and I was like, 'Who cares?' And then I really started thinking about it. I'm like, people do care, actually," said Kate, 44.

"It's not nice when people take something out of context or they look at something you're doing and they get all negative about it and they poke at it and they scrutinize it and they criticize it."

Kate, who grew up in the spotlight with Oliver, 47, as the children of Oscar winner Goldie Hawn, explained that, as a celebrity, "you kind of have to get used to it because people can be so mean."

"Then," she continued, "you kinda realize that a lot of those people don't really exist. Like, you go, 'Wow, who's this person being so mean to me on here?' And then you go on there and they have zero followers and they have zero posts, and you're like, 'Oh, s---, it's a [fake account].' It's either a troll or it's someone that doesn't even exist. Or someone's actually legitimately trying to make you feel or look bad."

The Glass Onion actress said "when you really break that down" the "amount of energy it takes for someone to s--- on someone else is not only exhausting, but not even worth giving any attention to."

Kate pointed out, too, that it's not only limited to people in the public eye. "People are doing this to other people. And kids are doing it to kids."

"This is weird," she said in the video. "Anyone who takes any second out of their day to be the person who is like, 'You should be ashamed of yourself. Gross. Cringe.' Anyone who goes on and comments on other people's bodies or hair or negatively, they need to look at their life and go, 'Why am I behaving this way?' "

"You know what? No, forget that. Scratch that — they don't need to look at their life," she added. "You as the person they're scrutinizing need to remember that any, any person who is doing that is one of a couple things: One, jealous. Two, not well. Three, incredibly, deeply unhappy. ... Four, bored as f---. And five, I'll just end with this one, even if they're kinda sane or whatever, they're definitely not the kind of person you'd be friends with."

Kate, who said she is "not a s---–talker" in her own life, said her advice is simply "don't worry about it."

"That's what I said to my brother today: It just doesn't matter. No one really cares, and those who are writing all that stuff and it's, like, loud and it feels bad ... just remember what I'm saying. These are not people you'd hang out with. These aren't people you'd break bread with. These aren't people who will enrich your life — so just block 'em! Block 'em. Block, delete, bye."

Captioning the post, "BLOCK THE NEGATIVE SEEKERS. They take too. much undeserved energy," Kate added in the video that followers should also block "anyone who talks s--- about anyone else too. If someone comes onto your thing and says you're better than someone else, block them too. We don't like people like that."

Kate and Oliver routinely make headlines and spark social media attention when they get candid on their podcast Sibling Revelry. Recently, Oliver spoke out to clarify "trauma" comments he shared about his childhood after some misconstrued it to be about his mother Goldie, 78.

He said in his followup comments that he was "afraid" to speak on the topic "even more" because "everything is taken so far out of context."
