The Emma article and interview have also been transcribed and added into the press archives.

What do you like about Hermione?
She’s got a heart of gold. She’s the first person to sympathise with anyone in opposition to her. She’s so determined, loyal and she’s such a strong girl … woman! She’s the ultimate girl.

When did you find time to study?
It’s something I really wanted for myself. If you want something enough, you make time to do it. I’d do most of my reading when I was sat in the make-up truck. I’d sit and write and I’d have my laptop on my lap and I worked weekends. It was exhausting. But it’s so worth it, I’m so proud. Read more?

And an added bonus goodie – we’ve added high quality additions from last year’s Nick Knight photoshoot Emma did for “Interview” magazine. Previously, this shoot was only available in medium quality in our galleries. You can also check those out in the galleries, or follow the previews below.

Best Movie – Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
Best Villian – Tom Felton
Best Female Performance – Emma Watson
Best Male Performance – Daniel Radcliffe

Unfortunately Rupert did not manage to secure a nomination, which is a shame. But let’s see if we can get a Potter win at the MTV Movie Awards! Register and vote Potter! To add some Rupert into this post, here’s a quote from the “Deathly Hallows” film set where Rupert briefly discusses what he and his co-stars do inbetween takens. Also, have a snazzy little quote from Tom Felton on his nomination which mentions Emma!

Rupert peppered his replies with a lot of his characteristic “yeahs” and “ums.” He revealed that he plays Guitar Hero with Daniel and Emma Watson when they are not filming and he definitely looks forward to keeping in touch with them when they are done doing the “Harry Potter” movies.

“It’s a massive honor,” [Felton] said. “Especially given that it’s a fan vote. That makes it quite touching. And it’s classic for me, because for almost a decade, kids have been running onto set and hugging Daniel [Radcliffe] and shaking Emma [Watson]‘s hand. I try and be as polite as I can, and I never seem to get anywhere with them. Finally, I’m in a category that celebrates that fact!”

And now our ‘Half Blood Prince‘ section should be all up to date! Captures from the movie and deleted scenes have been uploaded, along with captures from the featurettes with Emma! Emma’s appearances in the following featurettes have been added: ‘Make Up with Emma Watson‘, ‘One Minute Drills‘, ‘What’s on Your Mind?‘ and the sneak peek of “The Magical World of Harry Potter“!

Also, courtesy of Oclumencia and TCC four new additions from the ‘Half Blood Prince’ photoshoot have been added into the galleries! Photos are viewable here.

Stay tuned for captures from ‘Half Blood Prince’!

Also, don’t forget to stalk the ‘Half Blood Prince’ Facebook – they’re releasing videos from the DVD (movie and featurettes) daily in the lead up to the release!

TimesOnline.co.uk have released “The Top 30 Power Players Under 30” list, with Emma coming in at number four, right behind Keria Knightley! Other honourable mentions include: ‘Goblet of Fire’ co-star Robert Pattinson and international supermodels Lily Cole and Agyness Dean!

As the face of Burberry this season, Watson went from gawky schoolgirl to fashion ingénue. Shunning movies to study literature at Brown University in America — inspired by her mentor, JK Rowling — is a savvy move. Christopher Bailey, the creative director of Burberry, says: “She was the obvious choice for our campaign. She has a classic beauty, a great character and a modern edge.” source

Also, the nominees list for next year’s People’s Choice Awards have been released with Potter nabbing one nomination: “Favourite On-Screen Team”. They’re up against the cast from Transformers, X-Men: Origins and the Twilight cast. You can vote online at the People’s Choice Awards website. The show is set to broadcast live on January 6th, 2010.

Later Edit! Hey gang, Kaetlyn here! Untagged, high quality versions of yesterday’s photos have been added to their awesome album. Photos thanks to Scar Potter!

While in New York, Emma also did a couple of televisional interviews; including Letterman, the Early Show and an unannounced appearance on th Today Show! Not only have we got promotional stills from her appearances on the above shows, but we’ve also got a load of photos of her arriving and departing from the interviews, including: 74 photos of Emma arriving at Letterman in an adorably dotty dress; 150 photos of Emma leaving Letterman in a completely different outfit; and some photos of Emma taping the Today Show, which includes an awesome shot of her gorgeous shoes (view them here).

We’ll have videos later (in a coming update, not this one), so for now, lose yourself in lots of pretty Emma pictures (after you’ve viewed the premiere photos, of course)! Again, follow the pretty previews for even prettier pictures. If you’re having trouble keeping up with the photo updates, check go through our lastest updates and systematically go through, page by page.

There’s also been various high quality additions to the ‘Half Blood Prince’ premiere in London, plus we’ve added bigger and clearer scans from this month’s Entertainment Weekly feature on the Potter kids (courtesy of Rupert Grint Central)! And that brings this update to a close, I think – we should be all caught up now! However, remember, while there may not be updates going on on the main site, the galleries are always being continually updated, so don’t forget to check there daily!

All this brought to you by my own sources, Oclumencia, Snitch Seeker and TCC! Video updates and further news to come in our next update.

There are currently 219 high-qualities available in the gallery. According to The Leaky Cauldron’s Twitter, everyone is now inside the theater and so things are calmed down a bit. Another Leaky Twitter update let the world know that Emma’s dress is vintage – 1970s Ozzie Clark. We’re continuing to add pictures to and clean up the gallery, so feel free to stick around and join the discussion in the comments!

UPDATE: Two new video clips from HBP have appeared online! Check them out in a variety of formats here, courtesy of HPANA.

UPDATE: A new CNN look at HBP with a new clip of the trio is available on YouTube. We’re continuing to add more photos from the premiere as well, so stay around! Also, the first of many, many red carpet interviews are now appearing online – interview with Emma on the movie and interview with the cast on the movie and the weather! Another cast video focussing on the rain and the fashion regrets!

We’ve now got a playlist up with lots of Emma interviews, footage and shots from the redcarpet! There’s currently five interviews with Emma, two interviews with the cast and five videos of Emma on the red carpet! Check ‘em out! View them all here!

ITV1 have released a short promo ahead of their July 11th featurette, which can be viewed here. The clip shows some brand new behind-the-scenes footage plus some cute Potter moments, albeit a little fast! All this getting you excited yet?

GMTV recently interview Tom Felton, and now Rupert and Emma and tomorrow, they interview Dan! GMTV has also uploaded a promo picture with Emma and Rupert. Also, don’t forget to check out the 18 videos from the press conference we uploaded, which can viewed here on our Youtube, or in their special playlist section! Also, another on set picture has been released – with Rupert and Emma goofing off with their host! Check it out here, in our galleries.

Edit #4545: Newsround have finally printed their interviews with the stars – Emma’s part of the interview can be read here in the press archives. Nothing particularly new, but still a cute read!

This will be your sixth premiere, does it change, does it get any more exciting, or more boring?
It’s got easier as I’ve learnt what to expect. I think the first time I went on to a red carpet I was 11 or 12 and it’s quite something. It’s so nice to see that people are still so fond of the series and so excited about the film. source
