Emma Watson: Its hard growing up in the spotlight

Emma Watson says that it’s been hard to grow up in the spotlight. “In a way, it’s hard to grow up inside a film. I lived a period of my life that is full of lessons and changes under the spotlight,” the Harry Potter actress tells Vogue Italy.

Emma says that “people have the strange feeling of knowing me intimately because they have seen my transformation from child to woman, albeit only on screen.” Some days she wishes life were simpler, but the rest of the time she feels like “the luckiest girl in the world. After all, whose life is normal?”

Grateful for her experiences, Emma says, “I learned a lot of things, met tons of people from as many different places and had incredible experiences. It was just a bit different, but that’s okay.”

Emma is stunning in the magazine’s 20-page photo shoot. She dons gowns and couture dresses by Versace, Chanel and Armani Privé in a dreamy, theatrical setting.

As for her role models, Emma says that she looks up to Julia Roberts and Goldie Hawn! Julia Roberts “has a magnetic personality and smile” and Goldie Hawn has “lots of fun and for her showbiz abilities.”
