LONDON, May 18: “Harry Potter” star Emma Watson took inspiration from Kim Kardashian’s reality show ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ to prepare for her role as a socialite in Sofia Coppola’s new movie “The Bling Ring”.
The 23-year-old actress essays the role of one of the ‘Bling Ring’ thieves in the film, reported Daily Star.
The thieves depicted in the film stole more than 1.9 million pounds worth of goods from the homes of celebrities such as Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and Orlando Bloom among others.
Watson said she drew lifestyle inspiration from episodes of the reality show and MTV’s ‘The Hills’.
“I tried to understand the psychology of this kind of girl as much as possible. I didn’t want her to be just a parody. The accent was hard as it was a particular kind of dialect. I also thought a lot about what her parents must have been like,” Watson said.
Talking about her film, she said, “It was how about these kids wanted to pretend for just two hours or so that they were actually Paris Hilton and living that life.” (PTI)
