Uh, What “Trails” Has Emma Watson “Blazed”?

Uh, What “Trails” Has Emma Watson “Blazed”?

Emma Watson, the young star of the Harry Potter movies and also maybe she was in one other movie I think, will be given the honorary MTV Trailblazers Award this year at the MTV Movie Awards. From MTV:

There must be something magical about Emmas. A year after Emma Stone received the first-ever MTV Trailblazer Award, 22-year-old “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” actress Emma Watson will follow suit at this year’s MTV Movie Awards, airing live on Sunday, April 14 at 9 p.m. ET.

The Trailblazer Award honors best-in-class young actors who are actively carving out their own unique and diverse path in the film industry.

Wait, what? No offense to Emma Watson, but like what trails has she blazed? WHAT TRAILS HAS EMMA STONE BLAZED FOR THAT MATTER? Here’s the thing I really don’t understand besides all of this: MTV invented this award out of the blue. It’s not like America has been giving out the Trailblazer Award for 150 years and this year the Trailblazer Award goes to Emma Watson. We don’t have to give ANYONE a Trailblazer Award because it is a make believe award. Were Emma Stone’s contributions to humanity just SO impossible to ignore last year that the big brass at MTV had an emergency meeting at four in the morning, Margin Call style, to decide how to deal with “the Emma Stone business.” I’m sure Emma Watson likes fashion, or something, and that she has been known to tip well at restaurants or whatever. Is that all it takes? I guess since the award is given to someone who is “actively carving out their own unique and diverse path in the film industry” the answer is yes because I AM NOT EVEN SURE WHAT THAT MEANS. The important thing is to get upset about this. It’s called priorities and I have them.
