Emma Watson Named Feminist Celebrity Of The Year

Emma Watson has just been named Feminist Celebrity of 2014 by the voters at ForWomen.org in a poll conducted in partnership with Cosmopolitan.com.  




In September, Watson, 24, gave an inspiring speech about gender roles in society at the launch of the #HeForShe campaign.

"We celebrate all feminists every day, but today we're giving a hat tip to celebrities who are helping to promote women's equality," President and CEO Teresa Younger said in a statement, adding: "Every celebrity on the list has either embraced the term "feminist," spoken out for women's equal rights or battled against sexist oppression."
