New photoshoot, new interview // 26 July 2007

Hello EW.netters,

Great news: Jo posted a new photoshoot on Emma’s official website. It was done in Paris, at the Gare du Nord more precisely (if I’m not mistaken… but I’m pretty sure that Emma’s standing on the Eurostar platform), by the famous French photographer Philippe Salaun. So what are you waiting for? Just hurry and check out this awesome photoshoot!

Also, Andrew sent us a transcript of a new interview that was published in People magazine, and in which Emma talks, among other things, about her university applications:

Fighting evil? Piece of cake.  Applying to college – now that’s a challenge.  Order of Phoenix star Emma Watson, 17 (who attends an all-girls school in Oxford, England), talks essays and entrance exams with PEOPLE’s Melody Wells.

What’s the best scene in Phoenix?

Obviously, Harry and Cho’s kiss was good.  I mean, it’s a really good kiss!  I don’t think fans will be disappointed.

Have you ever read the final book yet?

It’ll will be sent to me the night it’s released, so I won’t be queuing up for it.  But I’m not getting it earlier than anyone else.

If you were J.K. Rowling, which character would you kill off?

Gosh, that’s a horrible question!  If it had to be a good guy, it would be cool if Neville died avenging his parents.

You’re in school and filming.  A typical day is…

Really, really intense!  The thing about filming is… everything changes every minute.  That’s why I just love when I’m back at school.  I like the stability, knowing where I have to be, at what time.  Nothing’s going to change.

What’s the hardest part of the college-application process?

The personal statement.  It’s so difficult to sell yourself but not seem really arrogant.

Your family lives in Oxford and London.  Will you go to college nearby?

No, I definitely want to go somewhere away from home.  I want to explore and live on my own, in the dorms.  I want to do it all properly!

We have also turned the comments back on. Please do not post any book spoilers.

The book I finished have mixed feelings with . I will be mulling it over for sometime ! I really want to comment on the book but it would be spoilers for someone sooo for now , ….nada word !!

  26. katie says:

    the colour pictures make emma look faint and bored, but the grey-scale versions are so much better. the french photog should keep to doing grey-scale only

  27. Phlegm says:

  31. Lily says:

    Good interview.. But.. I don't really know, there is just something about it I don't like.. I think maybe that she could elaborate more on some of the questions, ore maybe its just me (-: But, Emma seems sweet, happy and cool like always.

  32. Lily says:

    I've read the last book, and it is so good! Really, it ends good, starts good, I just want to say: "Give a hand for J.K. Rowlings great imagination and for seven extremely great Harry Potter books".. Thans Rowling! 😛
