The 22-year-old actress, who gained worldwide success playing brainy boffin Hermione Granger in the 'Harry Potter' film series, found growing up in the limelight a difficult experience and is grateful she didn't let the media attention go to her head, reported Showbizspy.
"It just intensifies the whole thing. I think going through adolescence in the spotlight probably wasn't the easiest, but when I feel insecure I just focus on the work, on what I'm doing. I try not to get too caught up in it," Watson said.
"Because a lot of photographs are taken, you're constantly evaluating your appearance, which most people don't really have to do. It can be tough. It's just part of the job. I've never really known anything else. It all happened when I was so young," she added.
