Actress Emma Watson New York - Arabstoday Emma Watson insists that she doesn’t have a perfect body shape, despite wanting to have a “straight-up-and-down model look” for years. The 22 year old actress said: "I've accepted my body shape more as I've got older. I went through a stage of wanting to have that straight-up-and-down model look, but I have curves and hips, and in the end you have to accept yourself as you are. My weight has fluctuated between a size 6 and a 10. When you're growing, your body is still figuring itself out and it takes a while to settle down. I keep telling myself that I'm a human being, an imperfect human being who's not made to look like a doll and that who I am as a person is more important than whether I have a nice figure." Emma admits she gets "sad" when she hears girls putting pressure on themselves to look perfect and then slamming their own look when they don't have an ideal body shape. She added to Glamour magazine: "It makes me sad to hear girls constantly putting themselves down. We have these unbelievably high expectations of ourselves, when actually we're human beings and our bodies have a function. We say that the pressure is coming from men but actually it's from each other. I think women feel so much pressure these days and it can turn us against each other.”
