Crowe is one of Hollywood's most recognizable names, so it makes sense he might not feel the need to network, make connections online, and maintain a professional image on LinkedIn. But that doesn't stop LinkedIn from sending him an overwhelming amount of requests.

On Friday, a fed-up Crowe tweeted about his relatable LinkedIn frustration, writing, "There definitely should be a piss off option for LinkedIn requests." BURN.

A simple LinkedIn search revealed there are 765 results for "Russell Crowe profiles," though the first result led to a disabled profile, and the others seemed to be incomplete or belong to non-actors who simply share the star's name.

But Crowe further addressed his frustration in a later tweet, in which he seemed to clarify he does not actually have a LinkedIn profile, he simply gets email requests to start using the platform.

Twitter user @plidsi tweeted, "I am not even at LinkedIn and still get requests and reminders," to which Crowe replied, "This is my point."
