Emma Watson definitely wants to let her fans know that she was not bullied at Brown and that this is not the reason why she decided to leave. Find out the reason behind Emma's decision next!
All grown-up Hermoine from the hit movies and books “Harry
Potter”, played by Emma Watson doesn't really like it when
rumors surface and so she decided to shed some light over the
reason why she left Brown University. Emma Watson wanted to get a
sense of normality when she enrolled into Brown University, but it
seems that things didn't go according to the plan as she decided to
drop out.
After the news came out, the media began speculating that Emma's
decision came because she was bullied over her fame. However, Emma
says that the real reason why she left Brown is more personal and
had nothing to do with bullying as according to her statement her
co-eds couldn't have cared less about her stardom.
Emma Watson told Sunday Times Style Magazine that the
speculations raised by the media made no sense and that they
couldn't be more far from the truth. Emma shares with her fans the
reason behind her decision by saying:
“It made me so sad when all this stuff came out that I left Brown
because I was being bullied,”
“It made no sense at all. Brown has been the opposite.”
“I've never even been asked for an autograph on campus. I threw a
party for nearly 100 students and not a single person put a photo
on Facebook...Anyway, even if I was being given a hard time, I
wasn't going to wuss out of university because someone said
'Wingardium leviosa' to me in a corridor, or 'Ten points for
Gryffindor'. I've been dealing with the media since I was nine. If
I can't stand up to a few people giving me a hard time, it's a bit
pathetic, really. I've had so much worse.”
So if she did have a good time and was actually experiencing what
she was looking for, a sense of normality, why did she decide to
leave?! Apparently, this is exactly why, as she is not just any
girl, she is a talented, internationally known actress, and the
entertainment business and normality don't really go all that well
together. Emma said:
“I was in denial, I wanted to pretend I wasn't as famous as I was.
I was trying to seek out normality, but I kind of have to accept
who I am, the position I'm in and what happened.”
It seems that Emma's fame didn't really help her in the romance
department as well hence she says she didn't have much luck in
dating. She says she kept asking herself why doesn't anyone pursue
her and says the answer came from her friends which told her it's
probably because they are intimidated by her fame. Emma states:
“It must be the circus that goes around me. Me, as a person, I find
it hard to believe I would be intimidating.”
However, we are sure Emma will definitely find an amazing person to
grow old with, but until then she just has to go through the same
dating process as everyone else.
