Emma Watson blasts lavish celebrity lifestyle

London: Actress Emma Watson was stunned to see how many unworn clothes Paris Hilton had in her wardrobe and believes excessive consumerism is a form of kleptomania.
The 23-year-old actress was shocked when she visited the hotel heiress` lavish mansion to film scenes for her new film `The Bling Ring` - since Hilton was a victim of the thieving Bling Ring gang in real life. "It`s almost like consumerism as a form of kleptomania. She could never wear all of those clothes and half of them were brand new and still had the price tag on. But I suppose she just bought them to have them. We`ve all bought things on impulse but that`s an entirely different thing," she said. It appears the Bling Ring gang - who famously stole 2 million pounds of luxury goods from the homes of celebrities in the Hollywood Hills, including Lindsay Lohan and Miranda Kerr - would have been wasting their time had they targeted Watson. Despite her personal fortune standing at over 26 million pounds, the starlet insists she is far more down-to-earth and would never waste money on unnecessary clothes and accessories. "I`ve got about eight pairs of shoes and that`s it." PTI
