New Emma Article

There is a new article about Emma Watson (Hermione) from Mail Online titled "I find being sexy embarrassing, reveals Emma Watson". In the article she says something great (or at least I thinks its great): "I'm not tempted by parties or drugs. I don't actually like being drunk." Hurray! Finally a good role model comes out of Hollywood! The article also includes several pictures which you can see by going to the article here.

And something Equus related, with Dan. It's a caricature, of him of course. Enough said. Here it is.

(Not) Harry Potter Takes a Big Spill!

According to a new article from the The Mirror a stunt double for Dan was hurt on the set doing an stunt. He fell and said "I can't feel my legs!". And inside source said "The stunt double was badly hurt. He was rehearsing a flying scene which involved an explosion and it seems to have gone badly wrong. The guy was rigged up to a harness for the scene and was flying through the air.It is thought he may have been caught by the explosion and hit the ground very hard." He is now in Watford General Hospital.

UPDATE: His name is David Holmes.

UPDATE: His family released this statement "We would like to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers. We are trusting in the expertise of the medical staff who are caring for David and would ask the media to please respect the privacy of our family while we concentrate on helping each other through this difficult time."

Jordan's Midnight Sun Opinion

So, some of you Harry Potter fans might be wondering what the deal is with Midnight Sun. Here we have (here) the first chapter of the book, straight from the lips (or fingers) of Stephenie Meyer.

Basically, some weasel leaked the story so Stephenie Meyer felt betrayed and stopped writing the book. Now we Twilight fans have to wait for Midnight Sun. How long will the wait be. Nobody knows.

Well I just have one thing to say to the leaker:
Your actions have denied me my much anticipated Midnight Sun starring my favorite man EVER, Edward Cullen. Thank you, thank you very much, may James eat you in your sleep.

The Curse of Harry Potter

A recent article in TheMirror.com states that several crew members for Harry Potter are convinced the movies are cursed, after several tragedies throughout the filmings of the movies.


Suspicions are caused by:
-deaths
-freak accidents
-storms
-streakers.... and more.

Click here to check it out. But are the movies really cursed? It's up to you to decide.

Bunch of rubbish if you ask me.

Malachy Speaks!

In this interview Rupert talks about his character Malachy, and his co-workers. Cherrybomb, according to him, "It does deal with modern issues, like drugs and it is a coming-of-age story-- especially for my character, because I grow out of that lifestyle and realize there's more to life than messing around."

Harry's Birthplace is on the Market!

There is a new article on Scotsman.com reporting that the cafe where J.K.R. wrote the first Harry Potter books is for sale by its current owner Eddie Ng. The space is now a Buffet King. Eddie Ng wants the buyer to turn the space into a literary museum. Mr. Ng said "I saw an article about a house where Bruce Lee lived in Hong Kong that was donated to the local council to turn into a museum. That sparked an idea to turn this place into a museum. We were thinking of selling to J.K. Rowling first because we think something should be done to mark the fact she wrote the book here" He has offered the space to Jo for £1,000,000 ($1,416,000). She said no.

J.K.R. has been named #9 on "The Celebrity 100" on Forbes.com. She is sandwiched between Brad Pitt and The Police. Her "pay rank" is 1, her "web rank" is 23, her "Press Rank" is 27, her "TV/Radio Rank" is 64, and her "Power Rank" is (as we already said) 9. Forbes reports her pay at $300 million US dollars!

Not only does she have the highest pay of anybody on the list, she is also the only author in the top 30. And she is one of only four total authors on the list. These authors are J.K.R. (9), Stephen King (34), James Patterson (58), and Tom Clancy (75). Forbes has this to say about our favorite author "It was wizardry that transformed J.K. Rowling from a destitute single mother on welfare into a best-selling billionaire."


Rob or Dan?

In a recent article with theimproper.com Dan is claiming that Robert Pattinson (Edward/Cedric, whoever you like) is way more appealing to girls than he'll ever be. He says, 


"Rob can just sort of stand there and look at something and start to smolder. And I just can't do that."

Who do you thinks cuter? First check out this article, and then comment as to who's the hottest, Rob or Dan?
