Emma Watson is Afraid to Go Outside Alone in Case She Gets Recognised

Emma Watson is afraid to go outside alone and hates when people recognise her as she goes about her daily life.

The star said she has become too famous to go outside alone and to visit museums and shops without being annoyed by the public and the paparazzi.

The actress has publicly struggled with the consequences of fame and said she would rather not be swamped by fans every time she steps outside.

According to The New York Times Style magazine Emma said: "If I went somewhere busy, I wouldn't last very long. I can't go to a museum, I'll last ten or 15 minutes in a museum.

"The problem is that when one person asks for a photograph, then someone sees a flash go off, then everyone else sort of... it's sort of like a domino effect."

The actress said that the public can get a little carried away and that she has avoided putting herself in those situations in recent months.

"Then very quickly the situation starts to get out of control to a point where I can't manage it on my own," she said.

The actress stars in The Perks of Being a Wall Flower which is set for release on October 3.
