Rowling Headed to Inauguration

The Scotsman has reported that JK Rowling is expected to receive an invite to be one of 500 exclusive guests to be invited to President-Elect Obama's inauguration gala (party), January 20.


Obama has admitted to reading Harry Potter to his two daughters, Sasha, 7, and Malia, 10. Both have become big fans of the series that has captured so many (including me).

At the end of the article, there was also a mention of "Harry Potter the Musical". Rowling's literary agent has dismissed the rumor. 

Included was a comment by Dan Radcliffe who says, "I have heard things, but it wouldn't have my blessing."

I've actually got a friend going to the inauguration (I envy her) but hey! Maybe she'll get me JK Rowling's autograph if she sees her!
