Actor Emma Watson was dressed to the nines at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party. She wore a classic black gown and sported a new fringe haircut. But the statement piece in her look was not jewelry or her clothes but a tattoo on her forearm. The tattoo honoured the Time's Up movement, an initiative that she lent her support to a couple of months ago. But the message was overshadowed by a gaffe in the tattoo, which eagle-eyed netizens noticed and posted about.

To show her support for the movement, the Harry Potter actor and UN Women Goodwill Ambassador sported a tattoo with the words 'Times Up' on her arm. The missing apostrophe became Twitter's talking point and got all the eyes rolling for the wrong reason.

The buzz reached the actor who eventually acknowledged the error by tweeting a joke about the whole thing.
 
While the tattoo was temporary, the reactions to it were quite real - some mocked Ms Watson for the grammatical error, many others defended her. Here are some of the reactions posted on the micro-blogging site.

 
The Time's Up movement was created by hundreds of leading women in Hollywood in the wake of sexual assault and harassment allegations against Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein. "The clock has run out on sexual assault, harassment and inequality in the workplace. It's time to do something about it," says the official website.

Ms Watson has been a vocal advocate of the movement and even donated 1 million pounds to a campaign that aims at ending sexual harassment in the UK, reports the Telgraph.
