soooo sexy

Vacuous, self centred women take note - this is what you should be like! Down-to-earth people like her and ellen page should be pushed as role models if you ask me.

I removed the redundancy...fixed!

She looks like one of the fairy people in LOTR.

I just wanna hug her all night long.

I honestly don't understand the big deal about her...

I get the feeling that if you grew up with the Harry Potter paradigm then she was someone you had a crush on. Now that she is grown up it's legitimate to sexualize her. No doubt she is pretty but she still seems like a 12 year old to me. Cute, yes. Sexy? Nope. >> ^ForgedReality:

I think she's very hot (and I haven't seen any Harry Potter films and don't have any weird under-age mental images) but the 'net's opinion of her seems nutty. Why do people think she's any less vacuous or self centred than anyone else? I can't help but feel that it's at least 90% because they find her attractive, which is ironically vacuous.

I didn't grow up with it--I lived through the entire 80s and 90s. I have never seen a single Harry Potter anything and I have no desire to do so. I don't find her "sexy" or "attractive" or "cute" or anything like that, and suggesting that someone would dig on underage chicks says a lot more about you than it does about the person you're accusing of such a thing.

She is slightly pretty, but hot? I'll have to disagree with you there. Her hairy upper lip doesn't really do it for me. I find her rather average. Maybe it's the "girl next door" thing she has going on that get some guys feeling all tingly. No idea.

@ForgedReality, it is very much a "girl next door" thing. Maybe that's why people make what seems to me to be assumptions about her personality, she looks friendly, approachable and fun; but then her job is to look like something she's not. I find the girl next door look to be much more enduringly attractive than Angelina Jolie type drop dead gorgeous, but it is just a look. Calling this look cute rather than hot makes sense, but it's sexy cute. My 10 week old kitten is cute but that's a very different cute to Emma Watson!

I'm not sure what you mean with regard to @Kofi. I think he meant that men who grew up with the films and were around 12 years old when she was 12, so that's a fair enough crush - but now, as a 20 year old, they watch the first Harry Potter movie and those feelings are gone and they're left with a little girl who's cute like my kitten, not like adult Emma.

Courting the sensationalist press/social media, behaviour towards fans, and interviews on chat shows.

People like ellen page and emma watson don't spout endless amounts of shit on the first, take pride in the second, and as for the third...... go and watch an interview with miley cyrus - that vapid whore is probably one of the most influential female teen stars around now, right? Yes i remember when she graced our TV and shared a set with dame hellen mirren, and couldn't keep her mouth from spouting such endearing lines as "Watch my movie" and "Buy my C.D." in utter ignorance of mirren.

Does that now qualify me to say who is a better role model in your eyes?

I wasn't even trying to make a point about any of that, really, but I could. I was just pointing out that you are judging these people by their public persona and deciding worthiness based on that. There is likely a business-influenced element at work here shaping these appearances. I'm guessing you don't actually know these people. They could be just as vacuous and self-centered (or worse) than someone like Cyrus appears to be in actual life.

I don't know Cyrus (nor do I care to), but I'm sure there are business-related pressures on her and it seems hasty to dismiss her as a "vapid whore" because she is clumsily pushing a product while applauding people who generally end up in the same role with more skill, willingness, or better preparation. None of the people we've named seem like great role models to me. I'm sure what they do is work, but it looks to me like it's mostly about being cute, being in the right place at the right time, and profiting. That's probably not fair to Page (don't know), but addressing a pair of child starlets it's probably fair. In any case, I'd rather see something deeper in a "role model."
