Emma Watson- Response to Raphael and Nicole's Posts

After seeing Beauty and the Beast this weekend and reading Raphael’s post, I agree that Emma Watson possesses a unique star persona. Throughout the film I was drawn to her character and her acting talent. I believe she is a rare example of a female star who’s career has grown because of raw talent, and who keeps her fans engaged through her genuine personality.

I agree with Raphael that she possesses similar qualities to her character, Belle. She is fierce, independent, and seeks to be different, just like Belle. In real life, I think she also seeks to be different, especially in comparison to other female stars. Attending Brown University, Watson took a pause in her career to pursue academic studies. Her decision to study at an Ivy League college in America is rare for a female star of her age.

Emma Watson is not afraid to share her opinion, either. While critiqued for a recent photo shoot wearing a revealing outfit, Emma claims, “I’m not sure what feminism and my boobs have to do with one and other”. She passionately speaks about her definition of feminism and how it is not “a stick to beat other women with”. I strongly agree with Watson’s eloquent words and ability to stand up for herself. Her ability to speak organically and with such passion in interviews truly shows her genuine personality.
