Emma Watson Says University Friends Haven't Even Seen The Harry Potter Movies


Everytime a new interview is released with Emma Watson, it seems like she's pushing herself further and further away from Hollywood.

The actress has said that she's loving her time in Brown University in the US as she is surrounded by people who don't see her as 'famous'.


The 20-year-old Harry Potter star who's studying Liberal Arts in Brown says the people there are amazing:
"Everyone here is interested in their own lives, so they aren't nosy about mine. I'm used to people being intrusive and gossipy, but I can be anonymous.My best friend at Brown has never seen a Harry Potter movie or read the books. And one guy I dated didn't know anything about the films, much less that I was one of the stars, which I found hilarious."
It seems that the actress has also been quite home sick during her time abroad, Emma says that she's glad she left England but she still misses her family:
"Being at Brown has totally taken me out of my comfort zone. I'm so proud that I went to a different country to study and really spread my wings.I didn't call home for three months. I'd send text messages, but it was too hard to pick up the phone - I'd just burst into tears. Dad told me, 'Be yourself and you'll be fine'. My mum was more like, 'Make sure you wear a warm coat'. She sent me thermals and English chocolates".
