A portrait photoshoot by Charles Sykes for Half-Blood Prince took place on Thursday before the premiere. What a busy day that must have been. We have some MQ shots in the gallery thanks to Oclumencia.

ITV’s Harry Potter Behind the Magic aired today. Here is an edited version showing the Emma portions of the program. Credit snoop.

Anna sent us her photos from the UK premiere. She got some nice closeup photos, and Emma signed her HP6 book. “She looked really beautiful, even in the heavy rain!”

ABC Family is having another Harry Potter Weekend starting this evening and continuing through Sunday. During commercial breaks they are showing new clips and interviews with the cast.

Again I have a bunch of random small updates for you, and I’ll just put them all together. I’ll keep adding more until the next big update.  🙂

The Early Show: Next week Emma Watson, Rupert Grint and Daniel Radcliffe “share their magical Harry Potter adventures” on the Early Show according to a promo that aired during the show. I’ve updated some of the MQ pics to HQ that we have from Emma’s taping session. Credit Terminator.

Also in the gallery, I’ve added a bunch of pictures from the New York premiere, credit includes Terminator and ICM.

There’s a good radio interview with Emma on BBC 4’s Front Row from July 7, starting about 1:00 minutes through 9:00 of the program. Emma talks about 10 years as Hermione, university, and acting in her future. Thanks to Pamela for the tip.

In another radio interview for Australia’s Kyle and Jackie O show, Emma speaks Australian, talks about keeping her private life private, and what she wants to study at university. Thanks to Kerrie.

Paul Byrne interviewed Emma for Movies.ie on Monday and has posted it on youtube. It’s a good interview, Emma looks like she enjoyed it. Paul says he interviewed other cast members too, and their interviews will be up soon.

Also on youtube, here is a great video from the UK premiere from Elizabeth Toni. Much better quality than the live feed. From her channel you can view more videos from the premiere. Thanks Connie for the tip.

Harpers Bazaar let us know they have declared Emma a “rising fashion star”. I’m sure you remember Emma’s fashion spread in last year’s October issue of the magazine. Now, they’ve put together a slideshow of their favorite Emma fashion moments.

Speaking of fashion, Shania on the forums saw a bit of Burberry promotion when she was in London for the premiere.

More soon.

It was a busy day for Emma. She made a quick visit on Today and taped guest spots for Live with Regis and Kelly and the Early Show and then ended the day with another walk down the red carpet at the New York Premiere. I think we’re past the peak of the promotional excitement now, but there’s quite a bit more to come. TV appearances and specials, and a lot of things I haven’t had the time to post yet. I’ll start with some pictures from the premiere. I’ve added some to the gallery, with more coming later.

Pictures have emerged of Emma Watson appearing on the Early Show. I’m pretty sure the spot did not air this morning, so I think it was taped to show later. If we find out a date we’ll let you know. I’ve added a bunch of MQ pics to the gallery. Credit to EmmaDaily I think.

The US premiere took place at the Ziegfeld Theater today. We’ll try to have pics up soon.
