In a new interview, Emma Watson talks about the reasons behind her decision to take a break from University. She says school and work and all the commuting was too much, and that by trying to do too many things, she wasn’t able to give her best at any of them. So she took the semester to work on some projects and finish off Harry Potter, and then will “go back in September and try and focus a bit more on one thing at once”.
Emma also talks about doing theatre when she has the time to dedicate to it, saying it’s something she’s always wanted to do.
You need the Flash to see this video.
I think that’s a pretty good answer. She’s not a stupid little spoiled brat after all. She’s just a brilliant young woman who wants to give the best of herself in everything.
Oh and I’d like to see her doing a play at the theater.
is it just me or does emma look like she’s put on some weight? stress eating? LOL maybe it’s the hair lol either way she still looks fab <3
why does everytime emma gains weight or loses weight someone comments on it? She is not fat! Why do people in todays society make such a big deal about weight? I hate it when thin people think they are fat OR when other people think thin people are fat. I’m not saying that your saying that shes fat i just think its rude to comment on something like that. Emma looks fantastic and extremely gorgeous! ok sorry for my rant but seriously.
Nope. Looks the same to me. Her haircut makes her face look round and if she has, so what?!
I heard on twitter than Emma met with a woman who is a famous Broadway director! I wonder if Emma is seriously about to do some theater! We all know she’s a woman who actually does what she says.
Last semester Emma had to juggle her studies with filming MWWM and promoting Deathly Hallows. I imagine that was a major factor in her deciding to take a break from Brown. I am very happy to hear that she will return to Brown in September. I am wondering how she will manage her schedule now in order to fit everything in.
Dan looks brilliant in that clip of his play! Would love to go see him 🙂
This is why Emma is my idol. She knows how to sort out her priorities. She really gives the best in everything that she does. Such an inspiring young woman <3
And she’s not afraid to come back on her decisions when she have to, whatever it will happen after.
she is such a smart lady
She seems slightly sad here 🙁
I agree that she looks a bit sad here. I hope she’s doing OK.
I agree with Jen, seems like emmas slightly lost touch with herslf, with the weight gain and the c’s and b’s in school. I think she needs to realize no one is perfect, and her need to be perfect at everything is probably keeping her from being the best she can be. knowing that u gave it ur all is the most important thing its not having a diploma with straight A’s, the knowledge that stays with u after school its the value of an education not the marks. I think shes realized its either school or her job and both isnt so realistic. Emma u are human just live a little bit, care less of what everyone things of u and be emma.
Quite agree whith you about education.. Although I don’t have nor good marks, nor knowlidge (I am d***a** hehe )) ). Never thought what it can help me in my life, never been interesting in it.. Always been sure what I’ll find another way to succeed.. But still did not )) Maybe someday will.. Who knows )) Anyway.. Now I wanna get some educatian.. Just for fun mostly )) And to be more self assured… Anyway, I don’t care much about this.. Although I should in my situation..
What would I say to Em is what you are a star and should know what it is not important what other people say
I’m a bit like Emma on that point, I always want to be the best, to show the best of myself, and sometimes I lose myself in the process, so I get back, but I always try again later. It’s not very good and it’s a lot of pressure for… not a lot of reward seriously.
Anyway, I think Emma is already ok with stress control, as she forbid herself to read things about her, which I agree, would be very bad, because there are a lot of haters out there, among the good critics, and that can destroy her. I mean, if she’s critic enough with herself, she’ll know her defaults.
Sabastian, watch the video again. Emma does not say she was getting B’s and C’s. She said she would be upset with herself if she did.
good I wasn’t the first to notice :O Seemed like nobody comented it!! WHICH IS GOOD. But I don’t care if she gained some weight. It doesn’t mean she doesn’t care or eat unhealthy =). She’s absolutely beautiful =)
I would love to see her on stage. Maybe if she does it one day, I’ll have the time and money to see her performance. 🙂
I can definitely understand, that university AND filming at the same time is to much.
ans it’s not like if uni and professionnal engagments were in the same city :O
I just adore this girl. I think its because she reminds me a lot of my best friend. She too is very much a perfectionist and a straight A student. (ok she has 1 B but that was maths and she was only a Mark off an A) so I think this is what draws me too her even more. Anyway, MAJOR <3 hehe!
Hoe about you guys STFU about weight gain comments? Is a 90 pound anorexic define the beauty we see today? WTF? She looks absolutely healthy, and good for her.
i completely agree with ur comment. see my comment above
I weight 90 pounds and I’m 1.7 meters tall, and I’m not anorexic. Quit your stupid prejudice about thin girls! If someone commented that a girl was fat, everybody gets so riled up, but when you’re thin everybody has the right to spit a diagnosis that you’re anorexic in your face!
Guys no one said she gained some weight and looks unattractive now. If anything, I think she looks better–definitely healthy enough to have the energy to maintain her high energy life.
I also adore and respect this girl so much for her perfectionism. I think people misunderstood because she says being a perfectionist IS who she is, therefore she is being Emma by pushing herself 110% every time 🙂
maybe people should spend less time being amazed of what a wonder emma is and focus more on themselves.
do you know that this is a fansite?!
Lol @berlin. It’s true, and Sabastian I don’t think those two are mutually exclusive. It’s rewarding to see a young woman as successful as Emma be rewarded for all her hard work, because as a previous commenter said, a lot of the time we “little people” don’t get rewarded for consistently doing our best. So it gives us the reminder we need that it IS possible and we should continue giving our all.
It’s interesting if you look into the psychology of it all. Emma Watson is the one sole celebrity I’ve been a “fan” of all my life. I don’t sit at the computer all day tracking other celebs, yet I find myself making time in my study breaks (I’m Emma’s age) to read what she’s up to recently because it is so fulfilling. Even if we are living vicariously through her accomplishments, it’s just the boost I need to remind myself that if a young woman can go to an Ivy League university, be unsatisfied with anything but straight A’s, shoot a side project movie, promote HP, continue modelling, continue doing red carpets, all while commuting over the Atlantic Ocean, why can’t I handle 5 science courses, volunteering, school clubs, part-time job, family responsibilities, and social life? Piece of cake compared to Emma 😛
You just stole my words, Mima. I don’t care about other celebrities, but I like to look up at what Emma’s doing, AND it reminds me what I want do to r what I have to do is possible to do… (yeah… my english is a bit tired today… too much french lessons!)
Is it just me or she gaining weight
saw the comments above.. forget my first one! Don’t get me wrong, Emma is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen.. But it was like the first thing that came to mind.
Emma was seen doing a photoshoot today. A photo was put on twitter. It is amazing.

Ashkan Apr/14
I don’t care that Emma is a bit overweight. In fact, I admire her even more just the way she is. 😀
happy b day fat or skinny! this year looks like ull be on the tubby side! hehe
HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!
Yep, her jaw line has dropped quite a bit with the extra weight. It is a lot less defined than before, more rounded, and a bit puffed below the chin. I think in time Emma will decide what to do about her eating habits and exercise routine, so that she looks the way she wants to. Hopefully, she will be careful, not obsessive, and choose a healthy lifestyle. Once a person’s physique goes a certain way, it can be extremely difficult to get the trim shape back.
The top makes her look too old, but her hair and makeup are gorgeous! Just like she used to look when she wore her long hair up.
Yeah, she did put a weight gain but she’s been trough a lot of stress lately with one of her close relatives being very sick.
Im not liking the hair. She needs to do something with it, otherwise it looks plain boring.
@ Mima and @ Arou. I agree. I’m a fan of Emma only and for the same reasons as you said.
I think she looks amazing. I think I might have a little celeb-girl-crush on her or whatever 🙂 J/K.
I just think its just so amazing having seen her grow up and becoming such a fine young lady.
