HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Emma Watson is the latest celebrity to become the subject of death rumors on the Web.
On Friday, rumors began circulating that Watson had died overnight in an auto accident.
However, the 19-year-old "Harry Potter" star is more than alive and well. In fact, Watson revealed earlier this week that she will be attending Brown University in the fall. The actress visited the prestigious Ivy League school last fall. She was also said to be considering Yale and Columbia.
"I've got a place there to read literature," Watson told Paste Magazine of her decision to attend Brown.
While Watson plans to bury herself in her studies, she does plan to continue working whenever she is out on break. Of course, she also realizes that studying means she'll always be reminded of her Hermione Granger character in the hit "Potter" series.
"It sounds so geeky, but I really do like studying and reading, and if I'm not working on 'Harry Potter,' then my greatest relaxation is to sit with a book," she says. "That's how I escape stress—in literature. I always have several books on the go at any one moment, so it's no good you asking 'What’s on the bedside table at the moment, Emma?' because often I can't even see the table! I think that all that reading is just about the only similarity I have with Hermione, if you ask me."
