June 20, 2008: Away With Rumors!
Thanks to The Leaky Cauldron for digging into the recent rumors of Emma as a Chanel spokesperson and a new Harry Potter story for the theme park. Both have, somewhat unfortunately, turned out to be untrue.
A spokesperson for Chanel explained “We’re not allowed to make statements when the reports are not true” and that “We are only allowed to speak to reporters about this. We cannot widely release a statement that the report isn’t true.”
Warner Brothers debunked the rumors that J.K. Rowling wrote a new Potter story for the upcoming theme park, stating “Contrary to recent press reports, she has not written scripts for any films based on the Harry Potter ‘prequel’ (recently written and sold for charity) or otherwise, as part of the theme park or any other purpose.”
And now the summer holidays begin at iheartwatson.net: the site staff will be vacationing from the site for the next several weeks, at least until July 12. In the meantime, you can keep updated at the Harry Potter Automatic News Aggregator (HPANA) or The Leaky Cauldron - happy summer!

Too bad. I’d rather it be Burberry anyways.
Hey everybody keep voting for emma in the portrait magazine poll. It says it ends in July so it’s getting close.

Hey! July 12th is my birthday! Yay!
Anyway, I’m disappointed that she won’t be a model for Chanel, that would’ve been lovely.
