Los Angeles, Sep 25 (NationPress) Actress Emma Watson expressed her frustration regarding the stark contrast in beauty standards imposed on male and female actors in Hollywood.

During her appearance on the On Purpose with Jay Shetty podcast, she stated, 'I feel such envy towards my male co-star who can simply throw on a T-shirt and show up without the elaborate preparation required to be deemed camera-ready.'

'Kudos to Pamela Anderson for her recent bold move, as the bravery it takes to do that is beyond what I can articulate.'

Watson compared the unrealistic beauty standards of Hollywood to participating in a game show, according to reports from femalefirst.co.uk.

She remarked, 'It’s absolutely wild. The expectations are simply insane. Achieving these beauty ideals is nearly impossible, especially as the bar is continually raised, making one feel as if they are trapped in a survivor island game show beauty nightmare.'

In the meantime, Watson mentioned that she doesn’t miss the aspect of 'selling' her films.

Having recently stepped back from the film industry to pursue her doctorate at the University of Oxford, Emma shared that she is indifferent towards some elements of the industry.

She told Hollywood Authentic, 'In many ways, I feel like I won the lottery with acting, and my experiences are quite unique. However, a significant part of the job involves promoting and selling the art, which can disrupt the balance.'

While she misses acting on camera, she found some parts of the film industry less enjoyable.

Watson candidly stated, 'To be honest, I don't miss selling things. I found that to be rather soul-crushing. However, I dearly miss utilizing my skills and the art itself. It’s unfortunate that I got to do so little of what I truly love.'
