Emma Watson can't lead a normal life.
The 'Harry Potter' actress - who has achieved massive fame through her role as Hermione Granger in the hit wizard films - says she gets mobbed by fans everywhere she goes and has had to hide in shops to escape excitable crowds.
The 17-year-old star said: "Whenever I have tried to lead a normal kind of life it has been very embarrassing because I just get mobbed. I've ended up hiding in unexpected places like the computer department in Dixons!
"It's just an uncomfortable experience for everyone really. Sometimes I do miss the fact that I have never really been a normal teenager because I've been Hermione for such a long time."
Emma - who stars as orphan Pauline Fossil in a new adaptation of Noel Streatfeild's novel 'Ballet Shoes' - also confessed she was so "nervous" about starring in her first non-Potter role she almost turned the part down.
She said: "It was terrifying, really nerve-wracking. I was so nervous I nearly turned it down. I'm always expected to be found out that I'm not a good actress, and I thought, 'If I'm no good, now is the time to find out.' "

Nobody who's got $45,000,000 in her bank account is 'normal'. She's paying the price for being famous and making millions every year. If she wants to be 'normal', all she has to do is give all the money away and quit going to Hollywood openings. The razzis and the fans will forget about her the same way they've forgotten about every other has-been. Once she's got a real job and worries about paying the bills every month, she'll decide that 'normal' isn't so great either!
they should not treat you like that emma. mobbing and calling you horrible names. i know its hard because i get enough of it at school.if you feel that you are not doing well at acting then simply dont do acting.if anyone says anything after that in the street just ignore them and get on with your life.dont think that your alone and no one thinks about you because i have feelings for you.

Well, most stars say that they would like to live a life where they're not mobbed and jammed in by the public but treated as another normal person in the public,but that can be their humbleness or even their way to gain fame by acting like they really don't like being mobbed up.
The truth they say, can be never known.
