Actress Emma Watson says the headlines sexualising her are ‘deeply irritating’.

Recently, a number of headlines paid a lot of attention to her love scenes from the trailer of her forthcoming political thriller ‘Colonia’.

In an interview with The Times, she admitted they have not gone unnoticed, reports independent.co.uk.

She said: ‘Yes, three and half seconds of nude pictures which were not particularly risqué... It's deeply irritating.’

The ‘Harry Potter’ star added: ‘I'm 26 now. I've been in 15 films in total and me kissing somebody else shouldn't be risqué or horrifying, but I think that will continue for a long time.

‘There have been lots of advantages to being part of that franchise ('Harry Potter'), and playing that role for a long time, but inevitably there are obstacles and that's one of them.’
