Emily Blunt`s ridiculous career choice

London: Hollywood actress Emily Blunt has confessed that once upon a time she used to think that acting was a ridiculous career choice. The `Devil Wears Prada` star used to think she had chosen a "silly" job and almost thought about quitting acting to do something "worthwhile" instead, a news website reported.

"A movie can change your life. I used to be very British about it all, `This is a lot of silliness. I should be doing something worthwhile`," Blunt said. However, the 26-year-old Golden Globe award winning beauty`s opinion changed after a distraught fan told her how much better she had felt in herself after watching her critically-acclaimed comedy film. "Then this woman came up to me and said, `I have to tell you, I had the worst day. My husband divorced me, my kid got expelled from school. Then I watched `The Devil Wears Prada` and I laughed and thought how marvellous it was that a simple comedy could have that effect on someone," Blunt said. PTI
