“Harry Potter” star Emma Watson says she always wanted to be Spice Girl Emma Bunton when she was growing up.
The 23-year-old actress was obsessed with the girl band when she was a youngster and fought with her friend over who would play blonde-haired Bunton, whose nickname in the group was Baby Spice, reported Daily Star.
“I was so obsessed with The Spice Girls as a seven or eight year old girl. I wanted to be Emma Bunton. She was so, so cute.
“I had a friend called Ellie, and we would fight because she had blonde hair, so she thought she should get to be Emma and I said my name was Emma, so I should definitely get to be Emma. This went on for months,” Watson said.
