Emma Watson is everything Vogue could want in a cover girl. She's young, gorgeous, fashion-forward, and wildly successful, and with the upcoming debut of the final installment of the Harry Potter film franchise this summer, it was only natural to feature the actress on the magazine's July cover. But as much as everyone adores the ever-graceful Hermione Granger, Vogue seemed to take pleasure in portraying her as ungrateful and out of touch. By highlighting a handful of potentially offensive lines and drawing a few unflattering conclusions, Vogue has managed to depict dear, sweet Emma as downright snooty. What gives?

Let's review the evidence. Emma has earned $30 million from the past two Harry Potter films alone. She's all but redefined an iconic brand through her modeling gig with Burberry, and done her part to save the world through her eco-friendly fashion line with People Tree. In her spare time, she's studied psychology at Brown and boned up on Shakespeare at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art. Yet, in spite of all these accomplishments, she comes off as aloof and entitled in the article. A few choice morsels:

On being a part of the Harry Potter films: But in 2007 Emma turned seventeen, and the "doll's house" began to feel less like an alternate universe and more like an ordinary prison.

On being stuck in the role of Hermione Granger: "I have had no control over my life. I have lived in a complete bubble. They found me and picked me for the part. And now I'm desperately trying to find my way through it."

On dealing with Warner Bros: "I have felt for the last ten years I have had this battle; I've been fighting so hard to have an education. It's been this uphill struggle."

On fame: "I want to be normal," she said at the time. "I really want anonymity."

We get it. Constant, unwavering public scrutiny is tiring. Working 12+ hour days, weeks on end, can wear on the soul. Being a central character of an epic series probably lost its charm by the third film. And maybe Emma, at the wizened age of 21, really is sick of being rich and famous and beautiful.

But that's really not what Emma Watson fans want to hear right now. Vogue, for your own sake and the sake of your future celebrity relationships, please don't make well-loved people seem like ungrateful snobs...even if there is a kernel of truth to what you write. Aren't you supposed to be selling the dream?
