Emma Watson Goes Goth-ish

Can you imagine Emma Watson in any other role but Hermione Granger? Or playing the villain? The "Harry Potter" star, who always exudes a sense of innocence and wholesomeness, explores her hidden dark side in the August issue of Harper's Bazaar U.K. The magazine photographed Watson as her good-girl self, styled in a white wardrobe, and as her gothic alter ego, sporting vampy all-black dresses and a Liza Minnelli-esque dark brown wig.

The 21-year-old actress, who's starred in the "Harry Potter" films for half her life, admits she has trouble channeling her inner rebel.

"My acting tutor said the hardest thing for me was to get angry," she tells the magazine, via the Daily Mail. "I almost broke down in tears when they tried to get me to be angry. I said, 'I can't do it, I just can't do it.'"

"I keep all of that really bottled up somewhere and I feel unleashing it would be the scariest thing -- and to let myself be powerful, sexy, all those things, it's scary for me," she says, adding that the Harper's photoshoot "felt a bit uncomfortable and awkward, it didn't come naturally at all."

Watson, who recently complained that she can't get a date, returns to the big screen this month in part two of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," the final film in the blockbuster franchise. Next up, she'll take on non-Hermione roles in "My Week With Marilyn" and "The Perks Of Being A Wallflower."

She won't be moving to Hollywood anytime soon.

"L.A. scares the c**p out of me," Watson says. "I feel if I have to work out four hours a day, and count the calories of everything I put in my mouth, and have Botox at 22, and obsess about how I look the whole time, I will go mad, I will absolutely lose it."
