Emma Watson Just Played A Very ‘Bachelor’ Prank And It Is Iconic

This one goes out to all you “Bachelor” fans

by Hayden Manders

Like The Bachelor's Corinne Olympios, Emma Watson wants a nanny. Unlike The Bachelor's Corinne Olympios, Emma Watson only wants a nanny to help Ellen DeGeneres play a prank on an unsuspecting nanny-hopeful. Way harsh, Ellen. But, also, watching normals in uncomfortable situations can be fun and Ellen is very good at making it lovable.

Here's how it went down: Watson's promotional tour for the live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast, in which she plays Belle, brought her to The Ellen Show. The host revived her in-ear hidden camera bit and fed Watson words to say during a nanny interview. Watson wasn't looking for a nanny for her non-existent child, mind you; she was looking for a nanny for herself, because what else does a 26-year-old need in life?

Like Ellen's Adele prank last year, Watson's is feel-good fun. Cheers to the unsuspecting prospective nanny for putting up with an unruly and rather spacey Watson. Good thing it was a prank; Watson's In-Need-Of-A-Nanny character seems like a nightmare.
