Emma Watson 'attracted to US universities'

Emma Watson has admitted that she is attracted towards American universities because they offer her a better chance of anonymity.

The actress, who plays Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter franchise, has previously refused to confirm where she will reportedly be studying English Literature and Art this September.

"I’m so excited. Living in London, it’s hard to be anonymous. But hopefully, on some campus somewhere, I’ll fade into the background a bit," she told Elle.

"The relative anonymity of America is clearly a draw. I’m very aware that with Cambridge, people would find that interesting.

"Cambridge is so high profile in itself and then, on top of that, people don’t really go out in Cambridge because it’s so small, so I’ll be going out in London and then that’s just the same thing. I definitely am attracted to the States for that reason."

Watson can next be seen in Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince, which is released in cinemas next month.
