VIDEO : A Representative for Emma Watson Says She Had Offshore Company for Privacy

Emma Watson. (AFP) New York ? A representative for Harry Potter actress Emma Watson said she had an offshore company for privacy reasons only. More files were made available online Monday by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists. Watson created the company in the British Virgin Islands three years ago "for the sole purpose of protecting her anonymity and safety," the representative said. "UK companies are required to publicly publish details of their shareholders and therefore do not give her the necessary anonymity required to protect her personal safety."
