Actress Emma Watson has updated her website with a diary entry noting she will be attending the Empire Magazine Awards this Sunday. The actress, who portrays Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter series, says she is also going to be presenting an award, and she hopes it will be “a good night for Potter.” As readers will recall, Harry Potter received six nominations at this year’s Empire Awards, including a Best Actress nomination for Emma Watson. Also nominated is Dan Radcliffe (Harry Potter) as Best Actor. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix was nominated as general “Best Film,” and was nominated as Best Film in the “Sci-fi/Fantasy” category. Finally David Yates was nominated as “Best Director,” with the music for the fifth Harry Potter film by Nicholas Hooper nominated for “Best Soundtrack.” These awards will be presented Sunday night in London, England and broadcast on UK Channel ITV2 on Monday 10th March at 9pm.

One related note, Emma Watson also recently did some charity work, when she attended an event in Monte Carlo, Monaco for Liverpool’s Safe Place Appeal. Proceeds from this event went to a center which helps abused children. You can read more about this here.

Rupert Grint gets jipped out of everything lol. Personally, I think he’s the best actor out of the trio, yet he doesn’t get crap.

Dan was up against some tough competition I seem to remember. But Emma has a chance of winning. I wonder what award she is presenting.

by the way for people complaining that Rup didn’t get nominated, the nominations for this award was by public vote. So Rup fans only have themselves to blame for not voting on this one! Simple as that.

Don’t care about these awards, but it’s nice to hear about Emma’s involvement with another charity.

WELL DONE Emma!

Yes, Emma is one very classy girl. It’s been such a delight watching her grow up from the little kid in Sorcerer’s Stone into such a beautiful and elegant young woman.

I love Emma Watson, but I don’t think she stands a chance against Cate Blanchet or even Keira knightley.. Not that she is not a good actress, I really think she is!! but she still has much to learn to get there.

Daniel sRadcliffe’s nomination is another story! The only one there that could win instead of him is James McAvoy… I hope Daniel wins thought… he has being doing such a great job on his career and this last HP movie really shows how much better he is getting. He doesn’t stop blowing us away and pushing always for better!

All the luck for them!!! :) Let’s hope
