Actress Emma Watson is donating more than $1.4 million to the UK Justice and Equality Fund to help sexual harassment victims. According to its Go Fund Me Page, the fund's mission is “to create the far-reaching personal, social, legal and policy changes that will ensure everyone can feel safe at work, at play and at home. Together we can end the culture of harassment, abuse and impunity.”

The fund is managed by Rosa, the UK's leading women's fund and the site states when grant-making opens in the spring, "the fund will address priority needs, especially those of people in low paid, part-time and freelance employment, and those who face intersecting disadvantages related to their race, age, class, immigration status, disability or sexuality." Emma Watson along with more than 150 other women in entertainment and activists also signed an open letter about the Time's Up movement.

Emma refers to herself as an actress and an “activist.” Barf alert, say no more.

Also: dozens of actresses could have done the same or a better job as Belle in “Beauty and the Beast.” She met the minimum requirements, that’s all. The Beast death scene should have been a genuine tear-jerker and it wasn’t, mainly because she’s a mediocre actress.

damn. she should have sent the 1.4 million to me.

I would have given it to the Iranians where it could have done the most good.

If there isn't a "go fund me" page already in existence, there should be, for the sole purpose of combating without compromise, the pervasive influence of all the pervert and deviant groups that not only promote a new "normal," but are determined to criminalize normal sexual and reproductive behavior. i.e. the GLBTMXYZQWERTY Freaks and related support groups.

No members of the so-called "entertainment industry" groups need apply...
We still outnumber the freaks 20 to 1...

Well at least she pissed her own money away on something worthless, not someone elses money.

That’s a lot of money for a pretty young actress, they get used up quickly. Maybe she has a percentage of the Potter movies coming in forever.

She makes way more money than the vast majority of male actors in movies. What about them?

She is liberal. Her looks will never get better than they are now...just a steady decline as bitterness and resentment eat away. Too much time frowning and trying to look concerned destroys a woman’s looks.

“We believe we need to use our power as communicators and connectors to shift the way society sees and treats us. We need to examine the kind of womanhood our industry promotes and sells to the world.”

From someone whose fame and $$$ rests on her looks...

Just 27 and looks at least 55 when the light hits her just right. Gave $1.4 million away for nothing. A fool and their money POOF!
