Emma Watson  looks edgy and sexy on the cover of Glamour’s  October 2012 issue, on newsstands September 11. She sure has come a long way fro Harry Potter!

Here is what the 22-year-old Perks of Being a Wallflower actress had to share with the magazine:

On being caught boyfriend Will Adamowicz at Coachella: “I know! My friend got me tickets for my birthday, and what am I going to say? No, I’m not going to go, because I don’t want to be photographed? But it was a huge crowd, and I thought there was no way anyone could get pictures of me, but somehow they found me. It’s difficult on my dating life, because anyone I get photographed with is automatically my boyfriend. So it just makes it look as if I’ve had, like, 6,000 boyfriends!”

On growing out her hair: “I have to for roles. But if I had it my way, I would have just kept it short forever. Of course, men like long hair. There’s no two ways about it. The majority of the boys around me were like, “Why did you do that? That’s such an error.” And I was like, “Well, honestly, I don’t really care what you think!” I’ve never felt so confident as I did with short hair—I felt really good in my own skin.”

On her Lena Dunham obsession: “I am literally obsessed with [Girls creator and star] Lena Dunham. She’s, like, my favorite person in the world. I follow her on Twitter; I read her every day. And, yes, Girls is an example of something so refreshing because it feels real.”

FYI: Emma is wearing a Zadig & Voltaire jacket, a Nina Ricci dress, a Stella McCartney bra, and a Salvatore Ferragamo necklace on the cover.
