Emma watson talks about Helena Bonham Carter, the Kiss

The times has a really great interview with Emma called, "The siren call of Emma Watson." She talks about the Kiss with Rupert, how much she admires Helena Bohman Carter, and even mentions boyfriend Jay Barrymore again. Also the picture they used in stunning. (update: added the cover photo and another new photo to the gallery. Credit goes to http://www.emmawatson-fans.com/)

The three year mention makes me lean toward a Cambridge guess but technically Emma didn't say three year or that she wasn't doing any movies while in college. The interviewer said it not Emma. But Emma did say she was a English lit. student. And it's always nice to know she is getting offers just not the right ones. All in due time though ;)

In Harry Potter news:

There is a mini review out for Harry Potter Half blood Prince. It's a good little review. He says all the cast gave really great performances.

Emma Watson - Columbia University report wrong

Just Jared reported that Emma was going to go to Columbia University yesterday. They based it on the fact there was a Charlotte E. Watson enrolled. Some detective work huh? Well it looks like there is a Charlotte enrolled that's not Emma. Shocking. Feel free to leave comments at their site if you wish.

As to where Emma is going to college, my GUESS is Brown. Why you may ask? Well, here some info. How reliable - dunno. I just putting my two cents in: (info found at college confidential)

Here's to clearing up any more confusion...Emma Watson is coming to Brown! Please, no more comments on "how is it remotely possible she would choose Brown over Yale"--just personal preference I suppose. Anyhow, her name is finally in the Brown directory! If you don't believe me, google "brown directory", click on the first link and then type her name in the search button. It'll come up--it wasn't there a few days ago so she'll probably make it public soon. (I really hope to see her around campus next year!)

When I checked the directory on Saturday (someone from the Brown Facebook group pointed this out and I saw it as well), her name was there as plain as day. Only her name and "Undergraduate Student" was listed; most students have their name, type of student, and e-mail address listed. My guess is that they took it down either because she hasn't made any official statements yet or she just doesn't want to be listed in the directory. I'm really not sure, but her name was there! (And previous posters apparently saw it as well!) It's understandable why her name would be taken off though.Also-- For some reason the thread started in the Brown forum about her was taken down the same day people started seeing her name listed in the directory. I'm not sure what that was about though.

I just learned that she was taken off the directory (the EXACT same day someone reported finding her) because of Facebook. Admission officers apparently monitor the Facebook group and so when everyone got excited and started searching for her, they took her down. That also explains why the thread in the Brown forum was removed.

Another poster:
I am pretty positive she is going to Brown. I saw her name in the directory myself.

"Emma Charlotte Watson" showed up in the Brown directory, then disappeared. It makes me think she's going there; why would they remove the name if it wasn't her?

Plus this mention a few months ago:
http://www.beantownbloggery.com/2009/05/emma-watson-going-to-brown.html


So where do you all think she'll be attending? (I have to give the girl props for keeping it a secret for so long. I hope she can keep the secret till her first day of classes.)

Terry Diamond Mural @ Coyote Grill

On Thursday the 18th Terry Diamond unveiled his new mural at the Coyote Grill in Laguna Beach and needless to say it turned out super fresh and fitting. I suggest heading over to the Yote and perv on the mural. You'll like what you see and even find some solid grub.

Also there are many, many articles about the Emma-designing-clothes-line rumor. Right now it's still a rumor, nothing has been confirmed. Example:
http://www.instyle.co.uk/node/6346?destination=news

Emma Watson becoming a designer?

IMDB is reporting that Emma is going to start her own clothing line and she's generously donating her proceeds to the children's charity Unicef. This story will be considered a rumor until confirmed by Emma which could happen from her official website or when she does Harry Potter promotions.
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0914612/news#ni0843493

Speaking of harry Potter, Emma is scheduled to be on the Friday Night with Jonathon Ross, Friday July 3rd at 10:35 pm. The program airs on BBC.

She also is going to be on Rove Daily (Australia) on July 5th. It's not know if she'll be in Australia, if the show is tapped, or if the show will be done via satellite.

Snitchseeker has a really cute article talking about Harry Potter and the love triangle that is Lavendar, Ron and Hermione. You an read it at this link:

Emma update- charity photo, burberry video

Emma has donated a signed photo to Scope charities to be auctioned off. But what I love about this auction is that you know who the money is going to benefit. The winning bidder is going to help a young girl named Charlotte get the treatment she needs and her family can't afford. Go to this link provided to get more information on the charity item:

Thanks to Popsugar for the information:

As you can tell from the Popsugar article, Emma is being compared to other fashion models. I like the Twiggy reference, but I don't see why comparisons are necessary.

But as far as as Burberry news goes, I've saved the best for last- a behind the scenes video of her campaign set to a Razorlight song, Wire to Wire. It is just amazing to watch. (very artistic IMO.) It's already had 36,000 hits and counting.

Emma Watson is officially the new face of Burberry

Harry Potter star Emma Watson charms Burberry Laura Craik, Fashion Editor09.06.09

It's a darned sight nicer than her Hogwarts uniform.
After weeks of speculation, Emma Watson has finally been unveiled as the new face of Burberry, joining a roster of past stars that includes Kate Moss, Rachel Weisz, Agyness Deyn and Stella Tennant.
Shot by Mario Testino in Westminster, a stone's throw from Burberry's headquarters at Horseferry House, the images capture Watson looking winsome in a variety of classic trench coats from the autumn/winter collection.
Dangling off her arm are a bevy of cute accessories, from hot male models du jour Tom Guinness, Charlie France and Douglas Booth to Burberry's Woolf bag, a capacious suede tote with embroidered overlay costing a cool £1,095. The collection is inspired by Virginia Woolf and the Bloomsbury set.
Gallery: Emma Watson to Kate Moss - Burberry's celebrity campaigns
Despite persistent rumours linking her to Chanel, and her ubiquitous presence at international fashion shows, Burberry is the first major advertising campaign that the 19-year-old Harry Potter star has snagged. It is likely to swell her estimated £8 million fortune by six figures.
“Having known and admired the lovely Emma Watson for quite some time, she was the obvious choice for this campaign,” said Burberry's creative director, Christopher Bailey.
“I wanted the images to represent the rich history and modernity of Burberry while reflecting a quiet beauty, timelessness and strength that is particularly significant today.
Emma has a classic beauty, a great character and a modern edge. Her charm, intellect and brilliant sense of fun made the whole shoot feel like a picnic on the Thames.”
He added: “I felt Emma would be strong enough to hold the campaign as the only girl, and I loved the idea of her being surrounded by these young, cool British guys.”
Watson first appeared as Hermione Granger alongside Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint in Harry Potter And The Philsopher's Stone in 2001.
The sixth film Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince is released on 15 July.
Last week Watson suffered a minor back injury and was advised not to go to the Raisa midsummer ball, hosted by Mikhail Gorbachev, where JK Rowling had been a guest.
In the middle of a long film schedule, she was sorry to miss the charity event which she attended last year — memorably posing next to an eagle.

I've been reading articles about her debut campaign and the results have been overwhelmingly positive. Literally, there are thousands of articles about this campaign so I will post some of my favorites so far.

Art and Sole Numero Dos

The Light Gallery in Costa Mesa is putting on their second Art and Sole showing. In case you haven't heard about the show I'll enlighten you a bit. Take a freaking ton of hot artists including Brandon Boyd (Incubus man) and let them loose to create some gloriously fresh artwork. It's not the usual art on framed canvas or wood... No! it's all on kicks making each piece of work that much more fantastic. Check out the above flier for details about the show happening this Saturday or check out the info on the web at http://www.thelightgalleries.com/

Kisses & Hugs.

Emma Watson attends Emma Watson attends Rodarte Private Dinner

First a future event. According to the Daily Mail, Emma will be attending the midsummer ball this Saturday. It's a star studded charity event that hopefully will raise a lot of money for a great cause.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1190668/Spencers-ex-finally-gets-divorce.html

"Summer ball's glitzy guestlist led by Thatcher and Gorbachev
They are the two former foes whose empathy triggered the end of the Cold War. Now, 25 years later, Baroness Thatcher and the man she said she could do business with, former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev, are joining hands again - this time as formidable charity fundraisers.

They will be guests of honour at a fabulous Russian-themed midsummer ball at Hampton Court which will raise money for the Raisa Gorbachev Foundation. The charity helps children with cancer and is named after Gorbachev's wife, who died from leukaemia. Proceeds will be shared with Marie Curie Cancer Care. Poignantly, this year marks the tenth anniversary of Mrs Gorbachev's death.
The lavish £15,000-a-table event promises to be one of the most glittering parties of the London 'season' and has been organised by a committee which includes Madonna, Evening Standard proprietor Alexander Lebedev, his son Evgeny, the artist David Hockney and Lady Rothermere, wife of Daily Mail & General Trust owner Viscount Rothermere.
The glamorous guests, led by Sarah Brown, actress Emma Watson, JK Rowling and London mayor Boris Johnson, will have a chance to bid for auction prizes that include dinner with Gorbachev in Moscow, a Damien Hirst artwork, a Fiat car designed by pop artist Sir Peter Blake and a daring lap dance by comedian David Walliams."

Also according to Snitchseeker, Emma attended Emma Watson attends Rodarte Private Dinner this evening. She wore a black dress with a blue sash that showed off her nice body. I love her legs! More photos at Snitchseeker!
