Actress Emma Watson fired back at her online critics this week after coming under fire for a racy photoshoot in the latest issue of Vanity Fair. The 26-year-old featured on the cover, but a photograph inside caught the Internets attention; the shot featured Watson looking right at the camera while posing in a crocheted white top with nothing on underneath.
On social media, critics demanded to know how Watson a self-styled feminist and a U.N. Goodwill Ambassador could post for a photograph they claimed objectified her body.
Emma Watson: Feminism, feminism, gender wage gap, why oh why am I not taken seriousl, feminism, oh, and here are my t*ts! British journalist Julia Hartley-Brewer tweeted in what was one of several similar negative responses to the stars photo.
Other Twitter users called the actress a hypocrite and not a real feminist.
In an interview with Reuters, Watson said the being a feminist doesnt mean that women can never pose topless.
Feminism is about giving women choice. Feminism is not a stick with which to beat other women with, Watson told Reuters. Its about freedom. Its about liberation. Its about equality. I really dont know what my t*ts have to do with it. Its very confusing. Im confused. Most people are confused.
For her part, Watson said she was pleased with how the photoshoot came out.
The shot itself, I was honestly slightly taken aback by it, she said. We had been doing so many crazy things on that shoot, but it had really felt incredibly sort of artistic. I had been so kind of like creatively involved and engaged with Tim and I was so thrilled with how interesting and beautiful the photographs were. But yeah, people have asked, and Ive gone, Is there a controversy about this?'

LOL! I remember being 26, and stupid....not something I’d want to revisit, and I wasn’t even in a ‘limelight’...
She’ll grow up.
Her character in Harry Potter was cute.
The actress/person, not so much. Just way too bitter and you can’t cover that kind of ugliness.
She is a confident young woman who is not afraid to show off her beauty. Why are the feminazis getting their boxers in a wad?
She’s almost awake . . . .
Yes, dear. Feminists have replaced the fire and brimstone pentacostal preachers as the ones everyone is tired of hearing from about morality.
Nobody wants to be lectured to about what to think and how to feel. It’s how Trump won.
She’ll get there. Maybe.
She is turning into a real lefty.
She asked for Gloria Steinem’s blessing that her characterization of Belle, met feminist standards of political correctness.
And she is raising money for Planned Parenthood, which she thinks “is just great”.

Poor Emma..too stupid for words..earlier she said how she LOVES Planned Parenthood..hey what’s not to love, an organization fully committed to murdering as many babies as humanly possible..I wonder how Emma would have felt if her own mother had gone to PP to abort her, would she have approved of her “Choice”
She is surprised that she totally forgot to wear a bra and looked cheap.
That’s one ugly photo. My dog takes better ones without trying.
Yes, Emma, it’s about choice. I choose not to waste time or money on you. Any money you’d send to Planned Parenthood, so no.
That looks like a bathmat.
Women can be convinced to wear anything. Or nothing.
Ya, sure...like Meryl Streep /s
Different generation. Exigencies change.
Using the words of the left, Emma Watson is a hooker and a whore. That's the image they tried to paint the First Lady with because she did nude model shoots in the past. The left is full of jerks full of politically correct/incorrect slogans, wanting it both ways with what they say.
She’s still cute as a button.
I can’t cut and paste on my tablet, but it seems to me she is quite confused.
I suppose Hollywood can do that to a person.
LOL! Apparently so...
If not for Harry Potter, she would be another actress trying to get any way into the industry. She is all pseudo-intellectual because she was a brainy witch in the Harry Potter franchise and regrettably she’s indulging in her own hype.
She’s not high fashion and never will be. I am certain that she won’t be getting Vogue covers any time soon.
2. I have no reason to watch any production in which she stars
3. Read her quotes out loud. She's not very bright and admittedly confused.
