Rachel Bilson covers the British edition of Women’s Health Magazine March 2013 (Jessica Alba covers the American issue).

Inside the issue, Bilson, 31, recalls a recent incident with airport security who thought she was an unaccompanied minor.

She says: “I know I look super young. I was flying back home into LAX the other day and the security guard at the airport stopped me and said, ‘Honey, where’s your family?’ And I’m like, ‘I’m 31!’ ’Maybe when I’m 40 I’ll appreciate it, but as I get older and get wrinkles I’m worried it’ll be, ‘She’s the weirdest-looking teenager I’ve ever seen!’”

If that anecdote sounds familiar, it’s because Emma Watson, 22, shared a similar story on Twitter a few weeks ago.

Watson was recently stopped by JFK Airport passport control who demanded to know why she was alone.

Watson tweeted about it: “Passport control:’unaccompanied minor?’ Me:’sorry?’ Passport control:’where is ur guardian?’ Me:’I’m 22!!!!!!!’ #neverwearingabackpackagain” She continued by admitting… “The really sad thing is that this is not the first time this has happened.”
