Emma Watson

I feel like the shots are a bit weird... that they don't suit her or that she can't live up to them. As ghoulish as they are, I feel like the two smiling shots are the most "Emma Watson" of the lot, aside from the cover where her eyes are really smoking and the styling isn't overwhelming her.
Most of them, I feel a bit like she is a girl dressing up or that she is just too simple and young-looking of a girl to handle it.
She looks stunning, though.
 
Thanks! Would love to see photos of her in the red dress, gold jacket that she has in some parts of the video..
 
Emma on the cover of Vogue US! Very nice! Her eyes in pictures have much more expression in them now!
 
Her Vogue spread is beyond! :woot: I absolutely love love LOVE the 2nd, 5th and 6th shots!!!! Emma is amazing :blush:
 
Ahh.... I love the bit in the video where she's talking about her chickens. It's so cute and I really hope she named them Ralph and Lauren. Hopefully someone asks her on the red carpet what she decided to name them! lol

Does anyone know how many times Emma has worked with Mario (besides Burberry)? They seem quite friendly with each other.

Oh and I like this quote from the interview, "I'm a feminist, but I think that romance has been taken away a bit for my generation. I think what people connect with in novels is this idea of an overpowering, encompassing love -- and it being more important and special than anything and everything else."
It makes her even more like-able!
 
^I don't know. He may have shot her for one of her earlier shoots, but I know for sure they've worked together at least 5 times since 2008: 2 Burberry campaigns, 2 Vogue shoots, and the Lancome campaign.

And I agree, that quote is great. :)
 
New article about the Actors who appeared in the Vogue shoot with Emma: :)

The dashing young men featured in Emma Watson's cover shoot are not just fashionable props; they’re actually stars in their own right. All hailing from the U.K., these talented lads are on the rise with several big-profile projects in the works—including Steven Spielberg's upcoming War Horse film adaptation—and on the brink of becoming household names. Find out more about the burgeoning Brits below.

Luke Treadaway
Luke Treadaway is no stranger to playing a rock star. Following his acclaimed performance in the 2005 mockumentary Brothers of the Head alongside his real-life twin brother, Harry, as an unstoppable conjoined twin rock duo, 26-year-old Treadaway picks up his guitar again for September’s You Instead, shot in real-time over five wild days at Scotland’s T in the Park music festival. Moving at a gentler pace, he joins Felicity Jones and Elizabeth McGovern in the film Cheerful Weather for the Wedding, based on a 1930s novella by Julia Strachey. “It’s the first time I’ve done a period drama like this,” says the actor, who played Albert in the original National Theatre version of War Horse. “So clean-shaven, neat haircut, and posh voice—it’s not really me, but it’s always fun to dress up!” But watch out for Treadaway’s return to the present day in the gritty and hilarious Attack the Block, (“inner city versus outer space, La Haine meets Alien”), out July 29, as well as the human-trafficking thriller, The Whistleblower, with Rachel Weisz and Vanessa Redgrave in August.

Tom Hughes
After studying at RADA (The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art) and starring in a few television shows, Tom Hughes was rather surprised when he received a call from Burberry asking him to model in one of their now iconic campaigns photographed by Mario Testino and featuring Emma Watson in the fall of 2009. “I was surprised they knew who I was,” Hughes, 26, says. “When my agent asked them, they said they weren’t at liberty to disclose their sources. It was all very MI5!” Currently filming British independent film Eight Minutes Idle (based on a book of the same name by Matt Thorne), Hughes is as happy working with micro-budgets as he is on bigger productions. “Financial restraints can make you more artistic sometimes,” he says. “You have to work harder to make things happen. I don’t see it as limiting, just more of a challenge.” Speaking of MI5, look out for Hughes in David Hare’s espionage thriller Page Eight, alongside Ralph Fiennes and Bill Nighy due out later this year on PBS.

Jeremy Irvine
Following what can only be described as a stellar rise, War Horse’s Jeremy Irvine can probably expect to hear the telephone ringing more often from now on. “I was in the chorus of the Royal Shakespeare Company doing a little play called Dunsinane at the Hampstead Theatre, in London,” Irvine remembers. “To go from no lines carrying a spear at the back, to the lead of War Horse was a bit of a leap.” After a worldwide search and more than three months of auditions, Irvine was chosen by Steven Spielberg as the lead role in his film adaptation of the West End/Broadway smash hit due out in December. Not bad for the 20-year-old who left LAMDA (The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art) after a year. “I decided I had done enough of the classroom thing,” he says. “The drama school training in the U.K. is the best in the world, but there’s nothing like learning on the job.”

Harry Lloyd
Oxford-educated Harry Lloyd, 27, had never played a real person when he was cast as the young Denis Thatcher, consort to Britain’s first female prime minister, in Phyllida Lloyd’s upcoming biopic, The Iron Lady, which will be released later this year. “It was a new kind of challenge,” he says, “because you have to tie it in with the audience’s preconceptions—they already have an idea of what that person is supposed to be like.” After working with Meryl Streep as Margaret Thatcher and Jim Broadbent as the older version of her husband, the actor will no doubt become a household name (perhaps like his great-great-great-grandfather Charles Dickens), perhaps owing to his appearance in HBO’s epic fantasy series Game of Thrones, in which he plays exiled king Viserys Targaryen. “He’s a frustrated and repressed little boy who takes it out on his sister,” Lloyd says. “It all gets rather complicated, but he’s trying to marry her off to someone so he can use their army. It’s about as far from Denis Thatcher as you can get!”

Very interesting interview, she taks about wanting to be a mum, her fashion choices and going back to Brown in the fall...

EXCLUSIVE: Harry Potter star Emma Watson tells us why she finds handsome men 'boring'

SHE is the world's highestpaid actress, a fashion icon Sand a global superstar, so Emma Watson could probably have her pick of men.

But the Harry Potter star has revealed she finds handsome guys boring.

Emma, 21, who has been single since she split from musician George Craig last year, has listed what she's after in a man.

Being polite and making her laugh are high on the agenda but she's not worried about good looks.

Emma also revealed she'd love to be a mum.

She said: "I have very strong family values and I would definitely hope that marriage and kids would be in my future. I can't wait to be a mum."

She's even got the credentials. Emma explained: "My father remarried and I have three younger half-siblings. One is seven, and the other two, who are identical twins, are five. So yeah, I'm pretty good with young kids, I think."

Last year, Emma eclipsed Angelina Jolie as Hollywood's best-paid female star. It is estimated that by 2009 she had earned £19million thanks to playing Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films, so clearly she doesn't need a man with money.

But what attributes is she looking for in her ideal partner? She replied: "Kindness, good manners, intelligence, confidence ... and someone who can make me laugh.

"Manners are important. The way I was brought up, my dad is very strict and very focused on that, so if I see anyone be rude to anyone else, it's an immediate turnoff. I can't bear it.

"I think being polite is quite key for me. Being kind and being aware of people around you is definitely a big one."

Emma, who was born in Paris and raised in Oxfordshire, was chosen for the part of Hermione when she was nine.

The first movie in the franchise, Harry Potter And The Philosopher's Stone, hit screens in 2001, when she was 11.

And while her friends had crushes on Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio at that time, she was more intrigued by a famous Scot.

She revealed: "I liked Sean Connery and I remember thinking he was great."

So being polite and Scottish ticks two boxes. But what about looks? Emma said: "I was talking to my friend about this the other day. I don't have a 'type'.

"You could line up photographs of the guys I've dated and they all look totally different.

"You won't believe me but it's really very much to do with their personalities.

"If someone's nice to look at, it gets boring after about 10 minutes."

So maybe that explains why she once got starstruck by Matt Damon, who is hardly the acting world's biggest hunk? She said: "I've met people who are a lot more famous than he is and I've been absolutely fine but when I met Matt Damon I got all giggly and red and embarrassed."

Like Jodie Foster and Natalie Portman, who also came to acting fame at a young age, Emma has kept her feet on the ground by studying.

She went looking for a normal life at Brown University, in Providence, Rhode Island.

But the Harry Potter phenomenon means that escaping the limelight is easier said than done.

Emma has even been recognised while travelling in Bangladesh and Kenya, so are there moments when she wishes she was "normal"? She said: "I have moments, but I think it's more like, 'I wish things were more simple. Why does everything have to be so complicated and why do I have to think everything through so much? Why can't I have more freedom, privacy, etc?'

"But that's just when things get hard, then the grass is always greener."

Ironically, Emma didn't help herself by getting her hair cut short to shake off the Hermione look.

Because it was the drastic, short, pixie haircut she got in August 2010 that turned the child actress into a leading fashion icon overnight.

But as she talks about the final Harry Potter movie - The Deathly Hallows: Part 2, which is out in less than a month - it becomes clear there was method in the madness of cutting her long tresses.

She said: "I think it's about me having my own identity.

"I'm very much associated by my hair with being Hermione in Harry Potter.

This hair is very much about being Emma. I've wanted to do it since I 16. I just always thought it was about looked really cool."

Her fashion sense has helped her to become the face of Burberry, whose sales have boomed since.

She said: "It's a huge compliment. It's amazing. I'm really surprised, to be honest."

Emma has also become a designer in her own right, with her own range for fair trade fashion manufacturers.

She added: "I love fashion and there are two more collections to come out.

"But I'm going to focus more on my academics and my career from this point forward, so I probably won't be pursuing it much further."

She has used her love of fashion to great effect on the red carpet for a decade now.

Emma said: "I used to cringe and regret some of the outfits but actually I'm quite proud now that I had fun with it and didn't always look perfect.

"I've made mistakes but there's a history, there's an arc, there's a learning curve. You can see that I made my own mistakes and learned from them and figured it all out for myself and I enjoyed it.

"It's obvious from the stuff that I've worn that I've just liked dressing up.

"Who makes things girls can wear on the red carpets or to premieres? "For 12-year-old girls, they just don't exist. You either buy a bridesmaid dress or you improvise."

Emma will get a chance to make up for any of her early red-carpet blunders when she shows off a raft of new dresses at premieres for the final Harry Potter film in the coming weeks. And as she reflects on the end of an era, how much does she feel she has in common with Hermione, a bookworm who has become something of an action girl?

Emma said: "I probably started out more like her and got less like her. "I'm very heady and intellectual and we're very similar in that way - we're very eager to please and need approval.

"Not wanting to break the rules was definitely who I was. But I guess I think I'm more of a rounded person than she is.

"She's very focused on her academics and I think I'm more creative and have lots of other different interests, whereas she's very focused on one area."

Emma's co-stars - Daniel Radcliffe, who plays the boy wizard, and Rupert Grint, who is Ron Weasley - have long pursued other acting roles, she is only branching out now.

She has filmed a Marilyn Monroe biopic, My Week With Marilyn, and is currently shooting The Perks Of Being A Wallflower. But in September she'll be going back to Brown, despite claims that she was going to switch uni.

And as her time as Hermione comes an end, it's the only constant she has her life at the moment.

She said: "That's probably the only thing that's certain right now.Everything else is up for grabs, really."

Nice interview. Is it new? :)
I love that all of her celebrity crushes are about 20 years older than her.
Sean Connery, Matt Damon, Johnny Depp, and Kevin Costner.
 
God, I can't wait to see that movie! And yes, the interview is new. It was posted today. :)
