Thanks to The Leaky Cauldron for updating us on a slew of recent rumors! First, the Sunday Mirror is today reporting that Emma, Dan, and Rupert are filming “extra sequences and clips which will be part of the rides” at the Harry Potter theme park opening in Florida sometime in the next two years. The article reports that they will also be filming a brand-new Harry Potter story written by Rowling herself before beginning the Deathly Hallows films, and calls this a “mini-movie.”
There’s more, though, this time about Emma specifically! The Daily Mail is reporting that Emma “has signed a two-year contract worth £3million” with Chanel to promote the Chanel fragrance Coco Mademoiselle. The current face of Coco Mademoiselle is Keira Knightley. Keira’s contract with Chanel expires this summer. The article continues on to say, “Once it became clear she is growing into a beautiful young woman and wears the Chanel brand so elegantly, they had to sign her up. Chanel realises it is important to target a young audience.”, and that “Emma has been excitedly telling friends that she is going to be taking over from Keira.”
I’ve uploaded a few scans from Emma’s appearance in Teen Vogue in 2005. If you have scanned the actual article – or have scanned any other magazines we don’t have up, for that matter! – I’d love it if you sent those in (via this form or our address, staff {at} iheartwatson {dot} net) and will certainly credit you for them.
Many of you have also asked that we post about the Portrait Magazine poll in which Emma is nominated. I usually refrain from posting fan and more minor polls, but since there’s so much buzz about this one, definitely go check it out and vote! Emma is currently fourth on the list of the “Top 30 Under 30″ celebrities, with the Twilight cast leading by a large margin and Tokio Hotel and the Jonas Brothers pulling in second and third.
