Teenagers consider Emma Watson as an example of what is "real" and "good"

[Version française]

Over 18 months, the behaviour of 24 groups of young adults aged 14 to 17 was charted through interviews and group chats. The lives of celebrities including Justin Bieber, Kim Kardashian, Emma Watson and Tom Daley were followed.

Personally, celebrities like Tom Daley and Emma Watson are as dull as ditchwater thanks to their wholesome, chipper attitudes and bright-eyed, bushy personas, but here young people are holding them up as examples of what is “real” and “good”.

In the morality play of celebrity life, Watson and Daly were seen as hard-working, talented, aspirational figures.
