Actress Emma Watson (Hermione Granger) is interviewed and the focus of a new, six-page photo spread in the July issue of UK magazine, Tatler. The article features a lengthy interview with the young actress who speaks about many aspects of her life, including fame, school, style, family and much more. Emma is described in the article as being 'sophisticated beyond her years' and 'has always remained sane and down to earth.' On the topic of fame, Emma is quoted as saying:
"[Becoming famous] happened when I was so young but I don't find it difficult to have a nice ordinary life. People who try to hide from fame can make it go completely the wrong way. All those huge designer shades make them look like bugs! And walking around with bodyguards draws more attention to you. I think the best way [to cope with fame] is to try and live as normal of a life as possible."
She also notes that when interacting with her fans, "It is odd how normal courtesies don't seem to apply when people recognize someone. Maybe it's because they think they only have that moment to meet you. A lot of people call me Hermione and forget I am a real person and have another name."
You can read the entire article where she speaks more on those subjects as well as view the beautiful images from the photoshoot here, thanks to Emma-Watson.net.
Emma will next appear in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, which is released in theaters on July 11th.
You know, after a while you get tired of the interviews because a lot of them are the same questions followed by the same answers.
*End Gripe*
But I do have to say I'm quite impressed on how sophisticated Emmma is. She is a very intelligent girl. I must say what I admire about her the most is how important educatoin is to her instead of the Hollywood glamour. So go Emma! I also love her hair and outfits too.
*sighs* I will read before posting.
"She looks great and I love the new hair colour (why after the filming?).
Still, each day I wish they recasted everyone after the kids hit puberty.
It's not really airbrushed at all. She's just that good looking. The pic where she is standing in the white outfit is stunning. It was a really revealing interview. I didn't know about the singing gig at the castle and that her father owned a vineyard in France. She's really amazing. The haters are going to have seizures over these pics and interview. Wonder what they'll find to hate on?
ooh it looks like a good interview I'll have to read it. I don't think that the actors should have been recast; I think that that would have killed the movies.
Emma looked so thin on the cover pic. Not a very glamorous shot. She also looked thin on that TU magazine cover. The OotP promotions are really underway with these mag photoshoots. BTW, Dan has a fantastic new pic from Movie Time mag. And had a great review for December BOys from a Movie HOle snarky columnist who said:
"He’s so good here in fact he could probably stop taking orders from the ‘Phoenix’ now and send Potter back home on the loco." lol. But I have great hopes that Yates will deliver a fantastic movie. Hope OotP will change the perception of some critics who don't seem to take HP very seriously...
Erm this is off topic, but I just noticed soo...
I love the new corner thing in this layout! The hand grabbing the book...it is like I can almost touch DH *cries*
I want it sooo bad 43 days, 5 hours, 13minutes, 14 seconds
Hehheh, I knew she was in for more covers. These weren't airbrushed hardly at all I think, she is that good looking. Yeah, I'm just waiting for the haters to come out, though, really what could they say? This was a good interview, it was more revealing than any other she's done. Mind you, she is older so perhaps that was to be expected.
Ania, I can't believe you wanted them recast after they hit puberty. These kids are playing their ages! How much difference could there have been? Geez
"It's not really airbrushed at all. She's just that good looking."
Of course Emma is gorgeous, but I'm afraid to say that every single magazine spread for every recognizable magazine in the world is photoshopped and airbrushed these days, and this one is of course no different. And the sad thing is that so many people don't even need it - Emma is stunning even without the airbrushing, we all know that.
