Talking about this with Buzzfeed Lewis said that people would come in and tell her she looked like Hermione Granger from Harry Potter. However, she says at that time she didn’t know who Emma Watson was.

“I didn’t know who Emma Watson was when I was first spotted at a postal office and a couple of young girls told me I looked like ‘Hermione Granger,” she said. “I had no idea who Hermione was, nor have I ever heard of that name, at the time since this was when the first Harry Potter film was released. So, my mom and I had to look it up and find out who she was.”

Though she has dressed like Watson’s famous characters she says “she honestly doesn’t really see the resemblance”. Talking to Huffington Post she said, “I mostly see myself as myself. But, I do understand the ‘at first glance’ factor that tends to confuse people whenever they see me or my photos,” said Lewis. “My friends say I should be her stunt double, but I’m too clumsy,” she added.

Now, she has been also trying out Watson’s costumes from the movie Beauty and the Beast.
