Ok, Emma speaking French isn’t that surprising, but we rarely get to hear it. On the French TV Canal + program Le Petit Journal People they asked several celebrities at Fashion week to say “Bonjour le Petit Journal”, including Claudia Schiffer, Paul McCartney and Emma. Click the image below, or go here to watch the video. Emma appears about 25 seconds in, and again for a couple seconds at about 2 minutes.
Fashion writer Derek Blasberg was at Fashion Week and had this to say about Emma in his Style.com blog:
The sweetest person I’ve met this Paris fashion week has been Emma Watson, the 18-year-old British actress making her first trek to the Parisian collections. “I’ve been to fashion shows before, like the Chanel show that was in London in December,” she told me. “But this is the first time I’ve been to shows like this. This is my first time at fashion week, and let me tell you, it’s pretty intense.” She’s made a pretty good first run: spending a few hours actually looking at the pictures at Patrick Demarchelier’s exhibit at the Petit Palais (how novel) on Tuesday night, attending Sonia Rykiel’s anniversary fashion show and party (”That was amazing!”), and going to a handful of the big fashion shows, like Giambattista Valli (”I don’t even know where to begin”) and Chanel (”Now, that was a big deal”). But Watson’s got her sights on something beyond mere fashion: After her time in Paris, she’s planning a trip to the East Coast to look at universities.
Thanks to KS987 for the tip.
Fiiirst 😀 I watched Le petit journal yesterday and I was sooo pleased to see Emma <3 She speaks French so well!
I actually got the link to that blog from another site. And I didn't read the end part when it said "Derek Blasberg", so I thought it was the woman Emma is pictured with that wrote it XD. 😛 Thanks for the video. I saw it on Youtube earlier but they probably stole it from that site. Emma may have said that she is not Fluent in French, but she speaks whatever French she knows incredibly well. She sounds sexy speaking any language. 🙂
so i speak french fluently and emma has a french accent when she speaks, she sounds like shes actually from paris.. i dont know why she claims she isn't super good at it. she is defenitly fluent and bilingual and w/e in between
Thank you so much for this video! I always wanted to hear Emma speaking in French, it´s outstanding! 😛
oh i love her when she does that!!! she sounds really nice when she speaks French… thnx KS987 for the tip! 😉
Yes amazing indeed. She speaks french amazing! She is so sexy when she talks lol. I mean it's great! She is such a good person and she cares for fans but in a video a fan video…she was like "Oh this is it one more photo and it's all over" She was so tired and maybe nervous and angry…it's a long way and time to go to every fashion show and then in another country and all of that…she will go soon to the uni and then voila! She will settle all! Anyways then back to filming and uni and all of that. Wish you well Emma! All the best! She will soon settle down…but i know she took full advantage of this vacation! 😥 Ahh I love you all do and support you!
I've heard she's in Boston right now. I guess that would make sense since she's looking at Harvard, etc. Boston is a really fun city, she would do well here! 🙂 😉 🙂
Oh. My. GOD!!! 😛 She sounds so sexy!
EmmaRocksSocks took words right out of my mouth! 😆 That DID sound sexy! I'd really love to hear more of her speaking French. I think it's a beautiful language! 🙂
Emma definitely had the best accent! 😛 😛 😛
She has such a good accent. Amazing!
Indeed, Emma does sound sexy when she speaks French :smile:. Thank you for the tip KS987.
It sounds so cute when she speaks French, im german and i can speak french too, but i dont sound as good as emma, i believe… 🙁
Hey , here's a video whrere she speaks french too, but you cant understand it very well unfortunately. I'm sorry: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4M47-N3V7E&feature=related
As there is more than one east coast in the world, I'm assuming you are talking about the American one! 😆 😆
Ahhhhh ! shes at the east coast (hopefullly in america??) i live in new hampshire and it would be insane if she was looking at colleges close to me ! this is so exciting :]
Her French accent is very classy, just like her English accent. I do wish the moderator of the program had not introduced her as "Harry Potter's friend" She's a lot more than that!
Bonjour le petit journal ^^ She is really cool ^^
Heather, where did you hear that she was in Boston? I live in Massachusetts, so this is something I would like to know.
I didn't see Emma at all when I went to the link.
Kristina,When you get to the page, there is a video in the center. There is a new video today, but next to the video is a dropdown. If you choose “le petit journal du 06 Oct” I think you will see the video from yesterday.
Classy ^^ she has a really great accent, especially for the "bonjour" =D unfortunally, they introduced her as "Hermione from Harry Potter"… they didn't even say her name, that's really not cool =( French programs actually don't search far to qualify a familiar face v_v Sometimes I'm ashamed to be French just for that >_<
http://www.seventeen.com/fashion/special/homecoming-dresses?src=nl&mag=svn&list=snl&k w=ist shes number 21 in that "list"! 🙂
hey saskia: it's an interview she did to a french canadian journalist and she says: "je parle un petit peu francais. Je suis n
Wow Emma sounds really amazingly sexy speaking in french,and I love the potd. I loved seeing Emma as Pauline in "Ballet Shoes",and that is one of my many favourite books.
I'm in the U.S. and Emma going to school here is I think a novel Idea .What I know of Emma I doubt if any would suit her being from the UK . UK University's are completely different . One of the very best attributes of Emma is her need to be challenged . She is exercising her independence it will pass . If you had the smarts and cash of an Emma Watson would you go to an American University ? Whatever she does she will make it exceptionable because that is what defines Emma .
If Emma wants to go to school in the US, hopefully she chooses a place that isn't known for paparazzi and celeb-privacy invasion. But for all we know she could wind up staying in the UK. It's her decision. 🙂
Well, unless she goes to UCLA, I don't think we have to worry if she comes to the US 😉
it's on youtube aswell. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGPGObIEaro
So she is "planning a trip to the East coast to look at Universities" First of all, the East coast of what country? Europe has a West coast but no East coast; the UK has East coasts, North, Central and South America have East coasts. So where is she going? My guess is the US. So does this mean Cambridge is out? Very intereresting ba
WOW, I wanna learn French too 🙂 Very interesting and lovely language. But firstly I need to complete my English bag of knowledge as I don't know it "very well", just few words and can talk practicullary without accent (but not fluent because don't know so many words…) by the way 🙂 And I think what it would be better if she'll study at Cambridge, there most quality education. It's best place to study at that Earth (whole UK as well).
Not sure how reliable it is. http://www.boston.com/ae/celebrity/articles/2008/09/15/emma_watsons_travel_break/ http://www.boston.com/ae/celebrity/articles/2008/09/08/emma_watsons_1m_chalet/
regarding emma's visit to the east coast, here's an article about her visiting harvard. http://www.thecrimson.com/article.aspx?ref=524489
her french is v good,u could say she's a near native 🙂 and she's also 1/2 french!
I have to say, I agree with Chris after seeing those two articles from boston.com. They just both seemed really fake and…odd. But I don't know. I'm not saying that Emma going to visit Universities in the US couldn't be possibl. Of course it can be possible, but I just don't want people to jump to conclusions based on something that was written on the internet. Just…take it easy and treat it as a rumour until we hear something from Emma herself. 🙂
frederique , I know that , i mean that other people couldnt understand because it s incomprehensible.It is badly taken up… 😉
Emma is on style.com at the front row pictures of Chanel
KS987, She toured Harvard on Tuesday. It was in the Crimson News. Also, a less reputable web site (who is known for personal pics) shows a picture of her at the airport. The Crimson News said she was very friendly, met with admissions and did a tour of campus. I wish her the best, no matter where she chooses to go. 🙂
http://www.watsonem.estranky.cz/ please watch it
I`m Arabian girl i love emma so much she`s lovely star. Her french is amazing
the harvard crimson [reliable] posted an article saying emma visited. so if the crimson said so, im pretty sure she did
shouldn't there be an article about her visiting Harvard or an interview?? :???:.
If Emma goes to Harvard, then she would be a lot closer to me. 🙂 My chances of seeing and meeting her would increase. But it is her choice in the end. If she chooses Harvard, awesome. If she chooses another school in the US or UK further away, well that is awesome as well.
Great!Amazing!!! http://www.swarovskisparkles.tv/video/fashion/spring-summer-09/london/giles/ 😛
AHH! Harvard, im so excited. she might be going to school realllyyy close to me !!!!
Ok KS987, it's getting tyring of you spamming on the comments box. Better stop it before u get a ban :razz:.
Spamming? 😕 Spam is either several comments in a row, or every other comment within a matter of seconds or minutes. My comments had days in between, as I usually only have one or two comments per day.
No, what I meant to say was: stop replying to everyone's else comments. It is getting quiet annoying :smile:.
Uauh she rally knows how to speak french, i love her! Do you think that you can put these video and the video of emma walking on montaigne avenue and the other apperances. P.S- I don't know if the video of emma walking on paris streets it's an invasion of privacy, if it is sory I ask you for you upload the video, because i know that this website respects her privacy and I respect her privacy to. Thank you, so much!
