Emma Watson: Emma Watson wants to get rid of the ‘Celebrity status’ restrictions
- 2 Comment
Harry Potter star Emma Watson has said that she wants to lead a normal life and get rid of the restrictions imposed on her due to her celebrity status.
"It must appear super-glamorous, and there are certainly moments like this week when it is glamorous. But 90 percent of the time it’s not so glamorous. Maybe it’s just like the grass is always greener. But normal things just sound so appealing right now. Just normal stuff," the New York Daily News quoted her as saying at a press conference for ‘Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.’
The actress also said that she managed to live a regular life whenever there is no buzz of a Harry Potter film.
She added: Normally, in the middle of the year, when there’s not a "Harry Potter" film being released, if I walk outside with no makeup on … I’m fine. I take the tube, I wait for buses. I live a normal life.
"I’m very uncompromising about that. There are people who are advising me, ‘It’s not safe, you shouldn’t be doing this.’… But I really struggle with the idea that I’m having my freedom taken away.
"I just can’t handle that. I’d much rather deal with a couple of people coming up to me and stopping me than just not going out anymore. I’d go insane – you just end up with a barrier between you and the real world. You’re not experiencing things firsthand. …You’re bubble-wrapped."
Watson is also excited about joining a university soon for further studies.
She exclaimed: "I think university, the college experience, just sounds so great. I just don’t want to miss out on it. I think it’s a great time to make friends. I think it’s a great time to figure out who you are and what you like."

It’s very understandable for her to want some kind of normality. She’s been in this business since she was 8 years old and she’s been working non-stop on these HUGE blockbuster movies. The girl deserves a break. But I really hope she continues acting because she’s so talented and just so awesome overall. Emma is the Shiznit!
