Turns Out Emma Watson’s New Boyfriend Is Super Shady

I know, it’s sad, right? You’d really think that Emma Watson would be too sassy to put up with some triflin’ man, but it happens to the best of them, I suppose. Everybody loves love these days.

But how exactly is Emma’s new beau bad for her? Well, it seems like back in 2006 he achieved an impressive feat by having two run-ins with the police in the same week – once for speeding, and once for underage possession of alcohol – and also some friends are reporting that she’s being “completely consumed” by him. Uh oh.

From Star via Celebitchy:

“Emma is incredibly smitten with Johnny,” a pal tells Star. “Unfortunately, she’s fallen for a guy who isn’t as clean-cut and straight-laced as he seems. Johnny is a typical Hollywood bad boy and player, and her friends are worried she will get hurt.”

But the 21-year-old actress doesn’t seem to see any faults in her new boyfriend and has become “completely consumed” by him, says the pal. “She’s even thinking about blowing off her studies and not returning to school. She wants to just travel with him instead.” Emma is scheduled to attend England’s University of Oxford this fall. But Johnny, who met the Harry Potter actress on the set of The Perks of Being a Wallflower, may not want to shift his priorities for his British babe.

“People think he’s usng her to raise his profile,” the friend explains, voicing concerns that all Johnny will do is hurt Emma. “All she has ever wanted was to fall desperately head over heels in love, and she feels like she’s finally found that. She won’t listen to her pals and is falling for all the sweet things he’s saying.

Oh, Emma, please. Not returning to school? Just consider this: what would Hermione do?

  • Really? Thats what makes him a “bad boy?” A charge of underage drinking and speeding in the same week? If it wasn’t at the same time, who cares? The speeding was probably a ticket and the underage drinking is a misdemenor. Seems pretty tame to me.

    • I was just gonna say the same thing. Everyone speeds and drinks underage at some point in their lives! If anything he’s stupid for getting caught… lol

  • Stupid. People are allowed to fuck up in their lives, it doesn’t make them “shady”. So ridiculous. If I avoided everybody in my life who have had speeding tickets and MIP’s or underage drinking tickets, I would literally have NO friends and never see anyone in my family. What a pointless and overly judgmental post.

    Oh wait, my bad, I bed Emily’s driving record is squeaky clean, right?

    • Again, wasn’t referring to the tickets and the drinking, that’s fine. And not that it makes me better than anyone else, but yes, my driving record is squeaky clean.

  • At my college it was a given that before you turned 21 you were going to collect at least one under age alcohol citation. It didn’t mean you were shady it just mean you were at a party that got busted.

  • All you guys, it’s ok, I know. When I said “shady” I was referring to the “completely consumed” part and the part where Emma might not return to school for him and the part where people think he’s just using her. I know people get busted sometimes, come on, I’m not that lame.

  • yr not the only one saying so, this has been all over various internet sites for days. it’s ridiculous.

  • I sort of agree with you in that I simply don’t see it lasting. What, is he going to put his career on hold for 2 years for her? Is he going to spend the entire year in England, and then next year in Rhode Island for her? I see this as a romantic summer fling that will not last into 2012.
