About the HP books being full of stereotypes (2007): "Harry Potter has helped change loads of stereotypes. Where else, in fiction, can you find a character as clever as Hermione, who is an absolute feminist and won't accept to be second to none? Gosh! It's true that they're children books, but they cover most important subjects like life, death, politics, the importance of friendship and the choices that need to be made. Harry Potter really makes children think, it's not just like any other production for teenagers."

Emma’s Favourite Premiere Dress

Monday, July 25th, 2011

Over the past decade Emma Watson has worn dresses from top fashion designers to the Harry Potter premieres, but she says the one that will always be special to her is the vintage purple gown she wore to the UK premiere of Prisoner of Azkaban.

“I’ve loved every dress I’ve worn for a premiere but probably the best is the purple dress from the 1920s. My mum and I found it in a vintage shop. It was torn but we had it repaired. The one rip we couldn’t mend we covered with a corsage. We dyed shoes to match and found vintage silk flowers for my hair. That was the first time I felt I was creating my own look so, although it wasn’t perfect by any means, that dress will always be special to me.”

Emma is comfortable in ‘vintage’ to ‘cutting edge’, but for everyday wear she likes simple.

“I love modern designers like Alberta Ferretti. And right now, I’m very big on Valentino. But for everyday wear, the items I couldn’t live without are a pair of basic black cropped trousers and a pair of ballet pumps. You can’t go wrong with those – they’re the basis of everything.”

Emma in Beauty and the Beast?

Tuesday, July 19th, 2011

So, the latest movie rumor making the rounds has Emma starring in another remake of Beauty and the Beast, by Guillermo del Toro. While promoting another film, producer Denise Di Novi told ComingSoon.net that she was working on the project with del Toro, and that Emma Watson ‘is lined up to star’. There’s no confirmation from other sources, but that one line was enough to spread the rumor across the net. We’ll have to wait and see if there’s anything in it.

Emma Chats with Edith Bowman, and More

Saturday, July 16th, 2011

Emma Watson had a “chat” with Edith Bowman in an interview for BBC radio. This is one of the better interviews I’ve seen. Not surprising that Edith is one of the few twitters Emma follows.
