She was 17 or 18 when her father sat her down for the "money conversation".
|
|
Until then she had been living on an allowance of just £50 a week. "By the
|
|
third or fourth film, the money was starting to get serious," she said. "I had
|
|
no idea. I felt sick, very emotional."
|
|
|
|
The actress, 20, who was cast in **[Harry Potter][7]** at the age of nine,
|
|
confessed to being "straight and boring" in an interview with the December
|
|
issue of _Vogue_ magazine.
|
|
|
|
She has barely touched her estimated £20 million fortune, for which she was
|
|
named Hollywood's highest paid female in _Vanity Fair _earlier this year. She
|
|
chose instead to live in student digs while studying at Brown University in
|
|
Rhode Island.
|
|
|
|
It is such stoic self control that led her to ban herself from reading the
|
|
tabloids.
|
|
|
|
"There's tons that's not very nice and I'm very, very self critical, so it was
|
|
like a drug for me," she said.

Watson told how she decided to experiment with her new elfin hairdo after
|
|
being released from her contract, which banned her from wearing heavy make-up
|
|
or getting her ears pierced during the _Harry Potter_ shooting schedule.
