Emma Watson Dedicates British Artist of the Year Award To Her Late Hamster, Millie

Here’s another reason to love Emma Watson.

After winning a major award last week, Watson didn’t just go through the usual laundry list of thank-yous. Instead, she told a story that involves growing up in the film industry and the untimely end of a beloved pet.

Check out the clip above for Watson’s tale of Millie the Hamster, which she told while accepting the Britannia Award for British Artist of the Year at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts ceremony in Los Angeles.

The event was filmed on Thursday night and broadcast in the United States on Sunday night on BBC America.
