Emma Watson has won the title of Woman Of The Year at this year’s Elle Style Awards.
The 26-year-old actress who’s starring in Disney’s Beauty And The Beast remake received the award in recognition of her acting talents alongside her campaigning efforts for gender equality as UN Women Global Goodwill Ambassador.
Taking to the stage, Emma said: ‘This is not a year we will allow yourself to be silent. This is the year that women’s voices are heard.’
She added: ‘I’m not sure I deserve it really, but I’ll take it. It’s such an honour.’
Previous winners of the award include Taylor Swift, Katy Perry and last year’s Karlie Kloss.
