She's no stranger to the spotlight, but Emma Watson admits she's not so sure about living in Los Angeles, CA.

The "Harry Potter" babe opened up for the August issue of Harper's Bazaar UK, telling, "L.A. scares the crap out of me. I feel if I have to work out four hours a day, and count the calories of everything I put in my mouth, and have Botox at 22, and obsess about how I look the whole time, I will go mad. I will absolutely lose it."

However, Watson continued on the say that she was excited to move away from London for awhile and relocate to the east coast to attend Brown University back in 2009.

She told, "I felt suddenly very claustrophobic. I thought, 'I can't stay [in England]. I won't be able to concentrate. I won't be left alone.'"

On top of her feature in Harper's Bazaar, Emma Watson is also featured on the front page of Seventeen magazine this month.

Set to his newsstands next Tuesday (July 5), the 21-year-old poses for a darling shoot while talking with the publication about keeping childhood friendships alive and maintaining an active lifestyle.

Highlights from her interview are as follows:

On keeping friends forever: "I still have friends from primary school. And my two best girlfriends are from secondary school. I don't have to explain anything to them. I don't have to apologize for anything. They know. There's no judgment in any way."

On celebrity crushes: "I've never understood having crushes on people who you don't know in real life. I only crush on people I meet. I mean, I can appreciate that someone is good-looking, obviously, but I don't intend to fantasize about people I don't know!"

However, Emma confesses that she did have a crush on one of her franchise co-stars several years back, as she told Seventeen, "For the first two movies, I had a huge crush on Tom Felton."

She added, "He was my first crush. He totally knows. We talked about it - we still laugh about it. We are really good friends now, and that's cool."

On having fun with colors: "I try to avoid wearing black because sometimes it's the easy option. But I'm young, so it's nice to be able to play with color and not just wear black all the time. I can save that for when I'm older."

On keeping active: "I dance a lot and I run and do yoga and play field hockey and tennis. I like to be active. I don't always have time for that stuff, but I do always feel better afterward."

Meanwhile Watson and "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2", the last and final installment of the series, hit theaters on July 15.
