We might as well get it out in the open: we have a serious crush on Emma Watson. We've watched her go from cute child star (as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movies), to badass feminist campaigner and human rights ambassador — and she did it all while being hilarious and charming. Not only are we in awe of her, we'd also quite like to be her best friend, which is why we're always excited when she posts a new picture to Instagram. Emma may not be a regular poster, but when she does share something, it's always gold. In honor of Emma's 29th birthday on April 15, we've compiled just a handful of our favorite moments from the real-life superhero. Just take a look for yourself ahead!
