Hey everybody,
Interesting news! Emma was mentioned in an article written by Alison Lurie for the highly prestigious New York Review of Books magazine. The article was about the last HP book and the latest HP movie, which explains why Emma got mentioned in a book review 🙂
“For the actors who play the Hogwarts students, it is a different story. They are also talented and hardworking, but they must take their jobs seriously. They also have the disadvantage of having been cast when very young (in the first film in the series, they were mostly ten or eleven) and thus being identified almost entirely with their roles. There is also the problem that they have grown up faster than the books have been written, and therefore faster than the films can be made. The last Harry Potter book, though it takes place only six years later than the first, took ten years to appear. In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the principals are all supposed to be fifteen, but Daniel Radcliffe (Harry) is now in fact eighteen, while Emma Watson (Hermione) and Rupert Grint (Ron) are seventeen. (On the other hand, Evanna Lynch, the charming young Irish actress who plays Luna Lovegood, is actually fifteen; in her case it is unnecessary to suspend disbelief.) As time passes, the necessities of film production and distribution will only increase these discrepancies.
Meanwhile, all of the principals have become millionaires many times over: Daniel Radcliffe, according to report, is now the richest teenager in Britain. Emma Watson is worth fourteen million pounds, and she has also recently been voted one of the 100 Sexiest Women in the World by the British men’s magazine FHM. It is difficult to know how this development will be reconciled with the rather strikingly sexless adventures of the main characters in the final volume of J.K. Rowling’s series.”
You can read the entire article here (and I really recommend it, as it’s extremely interesting).
Have a nice day,

First 😆
Rupert Grint is NOT seventeen Eurgh. Yet again they haven't checked their facts
Are there spoilers of the seventh book in the article.? it's just because i did't already read the latest HPbook because i'm waiting for translation..^^
rupert grint is 19. wow. i love how rupert is hardly ever noticed. and now his age is wrong. honestly, he has been the best actor out of the three of them from the start and he never gets any recognition. lame. and people should do some research on the subject they are talking about before they write it. that is all.
she was sixteen when she played ootp
http://www.emmawatsonofficial.com has been updated!! 2 Really cool pics that Emma's dad Chris took on the set of Ballet Shoes! 😆
you know it really bugs me when people don't get their facts right…and yea…that was a very interesting article…
Jo updated Emma's site!!!! With 2 new pics provided by Emma… Take a look!
I hate when they dont check their facts!
hello!I'm Madzia.I from in Poland.I speek English and Poland.I'm 100th in the site.Bye
'extremely sexless' wats that supposed to mean writer lady? ron and hermy snog for gods sake! lol xx
She is the best one sexiest woman in the world!!!I
Yeap,that misprint annoys everyone 😡 But despite this,on the whole,the article is pretty interesting.It's some kind of history of creation as well-known as it is. Every celebrity began with a trifle and strove for something worthwhile. Their attainments instigate us to our own achivements.Jo Rowling is outstanding.:)Without her Emma wouldn't be promitent.We wouldn't know anything about our belle.Let's do justice to her 🙂
Wow, who needs facts eh? Certainly not whoever wrote that article!
um, did you say she wrote for the 'highly prestigious' New York book review :???:, because what I just read was most likely written by a VERY inadequate misinformed individual. SERIOUSLY.
Congratulations Emma 😆 :smile:.
It is a long article, but I will see what I can do :wink:.

Rupert is NOT 17 he's 19. Ugh stupid article.
Mistakes in articles happen, we dont need to fuss over it…
It would be much more interesting if they had gotten Rupert's age right. How can they call themselves journalists if they can't even get their facts straight? *le sigh*
Rupert is 19. Evanna is 16. What the heck?!

try pasting rest of the link that's not blue… after the first part on the url address bar
I wonder how many wannabe starlets are looking at the FHM "100 Sexiest List" and saying "How did <i>she</i> make the list? She wears <i>robes</i> and makes the list?" (I also wonder if this is the first time FHM has been cited as a source in the NY Review of Books.) BTW, <a href="http://www.pinkraygun.com/2007/09/11/top-100-women-of-genre-film-and-tv/5/">this list</a> of "Top 100 Fictional Femmes of Genre Film and Television" puts Hermione Granger at #6 (and Minerva McGonagall at #31).
the person who wrote that article it seems to be really bad informed about Rupert! 😛 he's the eldest of the trio! he's 19th! bad, bad… otherwise, I love the three of them! and can't to see Ron and Hermione's kiss in Deathly Hallows! (LL)
sorry, I meant to say that I can't WAIT to see Ron and Hermione's kiss on screen! (LL)
Man rupert is 19 not 17!!!He's like the oldest of the trio!The person that it should really not know anything!! But anyway,it's a good article apart from that 😉
oh yeah i can't wait to andrea!!! 😆 😆 😆
Rupert is 17? LMAO 😆
Isn't Rupert 19?
Here's a corrected link for the Pink Raygun Article: <a href="http://www.pinkraygun.com/2007/09/11/top-100-women-of-genre-film-and-tv/5/" target="_blank>Hermione in the Top 100 Most Powerful Genre Women</a>
okay, one more try http://www.pinkraygun.com/2007/09/11/top-100-women-of-genre-film-and-tv/5/"
hmmmm…sorry about the multiple posts – seems that putting a link in here automatically adds a semicolon to the end of it… Admin – could you delete my bad posts? My intent was not to spam, but to correct an earlier link I noticed coming to a 404 page.
Wow. For being so prestigious she really needs to go back to basics on research.
yeah it was interesting…but yeah, they got rupert's age wrong…
erm…isn't Rupert nineteen?!
Rupert is nineteen! 😡 and by far the best actor of the three of them but no one seems notice him. And if the author had checked all the facts he would have known that Luna is a year younger than the trio-14 not 15
yep, Rupert is 19, Radcliffe is 18 ( I dont like him 😡 ) and Em is 17. Luna might be 14, but the actress is fifteen as far as I know.
How on earth have they written that Rupert's the same age as Emma?? 😕
Of topic I know but what has happened with the pettition to get emmas chuck back on the market ???? 🙂
"Sexless"… it's a book about magic, and a bunch of 17/18 y.o. wizards and what they do during year 7. It's not a romance novel! What the heck?!
well you do hafta admit, neither in the movies nor the books have there been anything uhhhh "sexy" because they arent supposed to of course. so emma watson hasnt really done anything oozing sex appeal, making it a wonder why she was put on the top100 sexiest women list. i mean it would be fine to see her on a most stylish or beautiful list, but i thought it weird to see her on a sexiest list so early or rather, when she hasnt done anything considered "sexy" yet.
