Ever wondered what your favourite celebrities enjoy as their hobbies? Well, it can’t be anything normal.

From horse riding to pottery, here are some of the unusual hobbies these A-listers get up to during their downtime.

Brad Pitt: pottery

According to The Sun, Brad Pitt has a sculpting studio at his LA home where he makes pottery.  This is a hobby he shares with his Once Upon A Time co-star, Leonardo DiCaprio.

Queen Elizabeth: horse riding

A royal aid revealed that during her downtime, especially now that it’s lockdown, Her Majesty has more time to go horse riding.

The 94-year-old has enjoyed this activity throughout her life and has on occasion been spotted doing so in the grounds at Windsor Castle, Town&Country reports.

Ed Sheeran: beekeeping

The 29-year-old award-winner is now a beekeeper after installing a beehive at his six-hectare Suffolk home, which has been dubbed Sheerenville, Metro reports.

Ed, who already has an orchard, a greenhouse for growing vegetables and keeps goats as well as chickens on his property, is now on a quest to make his own honey.

Nicole Kidman: coin collector

According to Harper’s Bazaar, the 52-year-old is all about getting her coins – ancient coins of Judea to be exact which are a series of commemorative coins from Roman times.

Azealia Banks: witchcraft

In 2016 rapper Azealia Banks shared a series of Instagram posts in which she admitted to having for three years practised brujería – which is the Spanish word for witchcraft, PEOPLE reports.

In the Instagram series, the 28-year-old shared videos of her closet, which she was cleaning out and where she’d previously stored sacrificed animals.
