Emma Watson Weighed in on That Taylor Swift-Scooter Braun Controversy

Emma Watson is the latest celebrity to comment on Taylor Swift's legal situation with Big Machine's Scooter Braun.

During an interview with Variety at the New York premiere of Little Women, the actor said the pop star's current ownership battle over her music very much reminds her of Saoirse Ronan's character Jo March, who also struggles to own the copyrights to her debut novel.

“It’s about believing in yourself and knowing your worth and owning your worth,” Watson said on the red carpet.

“Right now, the Taylor Swift situation is a great example of, you know, you’re young and you’re talented and someone wants to buy your work, but having ownership at the end of the day is super, super important because you don’t know what someone’s going to decide to do with that," she explained.

The Harry Potter star also compared the situation to the Monopoly board game.

“I think people undervalue ownership,” she added. “You know when you play Monopoly and you have a decision and you want to own something or get cash fast. The way to win Monopoly, everyone, is to own stuff. I’m just saying.”

Watson isn't the only Little Woman star to weigh in on Swift's controversy; Ronan also made comparisons between her character and the "Lover" hitmaker while promoting the film last week.

"Taylor Swift just released an album [and it’s the first album she’s ever owned," she said on This Morning. "We really wanted to use this opportunity to honour this and fight for her work."

As for Swift, she first spoke out against Braun and Scott Borchetta in June after the talent manager purchased her masters allegedly without her consent.

The 30-year-old singer also took aim at Braun while accepting Billboard's Woman of the Decade Award. During her powerful speech, Swift noted that music is too often "bought up like real estate," adding that it had "happened to me without my approval, consultation or consent."

“The fact is that private equity enabled [Braun] to think, according to his own social media post, that he could ‘buy me.’ I’m obviously not going willingly," she said. "Yet the most amazing thing was to discover that it would be the women in our industry who would have my back and show me the most vocal support at one of the most difficult times and I will never, ever forget it. Like, ever.”
