How often do we not see a successful person splurge their money on the extravagance of life. Private jets, sports cars, desinger clothes, go ahead! You deserve it, you made it to the top of your career, why not? But not every other person remains the same when they have reached their success.
Most celebrities like actors/actresses in the big screen have controversial lives. Some have drawn to drugs, alcoholism, depression, and so much more. So it is quite rare to see celebrities who live a lowkey life.
One in particular, which I consider to be my favorite celebrities is Emma Watson.
Emma watson is an actress who started acting at a young age and made debut on the “Harry Potter” film series. From there, she mentioned in an interview how she would balance her work/taping with her studies. She would shoot scenes while having breaks in between to enable her to study. After the Harry Potter saga ended, she took up English Literature as her pre-law course at Brown University and later shifted at Oxford University. She is considered to be the ‘Voice of the Generation’. She became part of UN last 2014 as a UN Women Goodwill Ambasador, and has effectively moved the internet with her speech on women empowerment.
Despite her hectic schedules and public life, she remained humble and lowkey. She continued to follow her passion and became known for not just being a great actress, but breaking the stereotypes with how famous people handle their lives. She is a promoter of eco-friendly products as she wears dresses that support her advocacy even on her movie premiers. She is the voice of women who undergo abuse and disempowerment. She continues to live an average life while she fights for change in equality for everyone. She is not afraid to be labeled as ‘boring’ for not being like other celebrities like the kardashians or what not. She remained natural and grounded.
Her works and movements has indeed inspired me to strive better and remember to empower myself and others. It may seem difficult at times to balance studies and the problems that life throws at us, but we must learn to take a deep breath and continue to handle the situation. She inspires me to voice out my opinions and should not see myself any less just because I am a women. Because of her, I know I can do it as well. My part may not be as big as what she does, but, in little ways and any way, I know I can make a difference, one achievement at a time.
Emma Watson serves an inspiration not just for me, but for the many celebrities, the wealthy, and for everyone, to remain true to ourselves and never let fame or success change who we really are as a person. We should never be pressured with success and do not allow it to consume us to forget our part to give back to society. If I could ask her one question it would be, “what would you reply to a 5-year old little girl if she asks you, how do I be like you?”
