I just watched Ballet Shoes on BBC One starring Emma Watson as Pauline, one of the main characters on the BBC adaptation of Noel Streatfield's classic novel, Ballet Shoes.
We all became aware of her eight years ago when she was cast as Hermione Granger in the first Harry Potter film, and it has gone on since then.
She was only nine years old when the producers of Harry Potter appeared at the Dragon School in Oxford looking for their Hermione. "I think there were about 18 of us, "she says, "and we weren't sure who we were auditioning for, but I knew I wanted to be Hermione. I had no interest in any other part. I felt I really was Hermione. "She then went through a rigorous round of auditions and screen tests and pretty quickly she realised she was a contender for the role she had been dreaming about.
She still has two Harry Potter films to shoot - she will be 20 when the final installment is completed - but is applying to Cambridge to read English and philosophy. "I feel it's terribly important to continue with my education, in case acting doesn't work out for me".*
Growing up as Hermione Granger:
She was to play one of Harry's best friends at Hogwarts, alongside Daniel Radcliffe (centre) in the title role and Rupert Grint as Ron Weasley.
The UK premiere of the first film of the series, Harry Potter and Philosopher's Stone, took place in 2001.
In Leicester Square for the 2002 UK premiere for Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets...
Watson at the US premiere of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, in New York...
At the premiere for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix in London.
By the time of the release of the fifth installment in the series earlier this year, The Order of the Phoenix, Watson is seventeen.

Emma Watson zieht sich auch immer noch selten komplett aus, und mir kommt es so vor, dass sie noch leider nicht ganz frei ist. Aber es ist ausgezeichnet und menschlich, keine Scham zu haben! Warum hat sie so wenige Geschlechtspartner? warum hat sie immer noch wenige maennl. Partner? Es ist doch auch so menschlich, sehr, sehr viele Partner zu haben! Liebt sie alle, die gut und attraktiv für sie sind? Wenn es nicht so ist, warum sind alle, die gut sind, unattraktiv z. B., für sie? Das alles weiss ich nicht. Tut eigentlich echt leid.

Emma Watson has progressed so rapidly that YEAH she might be the next keira knightley if she isnt "already now". She is so beautiful and I love her in Harry Potter. (Waiting to see her is some more big time movies ;3)

I love how her sense of fashion grew through out the years ... the dress she wore to the premier of PS looked like a sack, COS was nice and approriate for her age ...but white dress and black dress is a no-no, GOF & OOTP she looks absoluty stunning =]
And apparently she is to be the new face of Chanel!!
Love, love, love this girl

Im a girl but I still think that emma watson is FREAKING HOT!!! I mean DAMN! But she looks muvh better with red hair, or maybe black, a couple tatoo's and a lip pierce. Seriously. If she did that ( maybe minus tatoos ;)) Then she would be even hotter than Scarlett johanssen!! I mean, Im serious!
