Emma Watson: “L.A. scares the crap out of me”

"My acting tutor said the hardest thing for me was to get angry. I almost broke down in tears when they tried to get me to be angry.:

California is on Emma Watson‘s mind, but not in a good way. The young brit explained to Harpar’s Bazarr U.K. why it is that she won’t be making the move to Los Angeles any time soon.

She admitted, “L.A. scares the crap out of me. I feel if I have to work out four hours a day, and count the calories of everything I put in my mouth, and have Botox at 22, and obsess about how I look the whole time, I will go mad. I will absolutely lose it.” That’s not to say the the entire United States was off-limits. Emma was excited to leave the U.K. for Brown University in 2009.

Watson, who is now one of the highest paid actresses in the world, maintains that she is very much a ‘good girl,’ so much so that it’s been a detriment to her acting career. She’s found it difficult to land bad girl parts, explaining, “My acting tutor said the hardest thing for me was to get angry. I almost broke down in tears when they tried to get me to be angry. I said, ‘I can’t do it. I just can’t do it. I keep all of that really bottled up somewhere and I feel unleashing it would be the scariest thing — and to let myself be powerful, sexy, all those things, it’s scary for me.”
