I think so, but I don't think she does much acting outside of Harry Potter right now. A few outside roles but she's one of the incredibly lucky plucked from obscurity and now set for life actors.

And she just started in Fall 2009 since she took a gap year. She chose school over being a full-time actress per her quotes. Makes sense, she probably wants to be 'normal.'

Hell I'd take being worth 10 million pounds and having 2 more movies on the way, guaranteed and then retire myself. But I'm lazy.

The irony is that the only nonwhite person (there was J-Lo, but that's a different topic) that they showcased is...wait for it...TRACY DAMN MORGAN. Yeah.[/URL]

LMAO can someone make a .gif out of this?

The time spent "making it" without going to college, you couldve... went to college. Remember that phrase "stay in school, don't be a fool?"

yeah, still applies.

I do think she takes modeling gigs once in a while.

True. It's just that your level of involvement with your career changes a lot if you're going to be a college student at the same time. Miley Cyrus couldn't tour/record/act at the level she is while attending school, she's working a full time job. Emma Watson has chosen to pursue school first and it seems like she'll be able to fit it in with her much more limited acting and modeling work. I have no idea what her personal goals are either, whether she'd like to keep acting or not post-HP.

Anyway, for those lucky enough to already be rich and famous they have a bit more freedom in some ways and and less in others but privilege out the wazoo.

Trans-racial adoption is a hot-button issue all over the country, not just in the South.

It may not be in your community, though.

See the recent Sandra Bullock adoption criticisms.

You know that thing about adding too much information to your posts? You're doing it again.

Should we use a codeword?

Revealing too much personal info is not a good idea, lol.

I'm sorry. I just wanted to add that because I didn't want to offend anyone from the South. That is why I said that.

Well, that tidbit about North vs. South wasn't necessary to your point.

Mentioning that you're interested in adopting a child of a different race than you was unnecessary and leaves yourself open to conversations that it sounds like you're not necessarily educated on or ready to have. I don't know. But when you put it out there it becomes something to comment on.

Also, apologizing here is again, probably not the best of options. Particularly because you didn't actually do anything 'wrong' you just seem kind of oblivious about how some people will take your words and can't handle it when they take them in a different way from which you meant them.
