| | | Fans meet Emma Watson in Selfridges Emma-Watson.net webmaster Jo recently wrote a report from the day when Emma Watson turned on the Christmas Lights in Oxford Street.
In her report she referred to two girls who were given tickets for the PoA Premiere by Emma Watson (I mentioned those girls in my PoA Prem report too - I was stood directly next to them) as those girls were also present at the Oxford Street lights display.
The event was near Selfridges, a shop in Oxford Street and so the two fans went in there, hoping to bump into Emma Watson. And guess what happened?
Yes, lady luck struck twice for them. They met her, talked to her and got an autograph, plus a picture taken with her.
The report from that particular meeting can be read here courtesy of Jo who typed up the email which the two girls sent the site webmaster detailing what happened when they met Emma Watson.
* Quote:
We both said hi
to her and she said: 'OH, Hi! You're the girls from the premiere! Hi! so
how was it? Did you enjoy it? (with a huge smile on HER face) . we
said: OH MY GOD! YESSS thank you soo much!!!! We love you!!!!!
she was like: its Ok!!
| Quote:
Emma was just chatting away like she
actually knew us and had nothing else to do (well she did look extremely bored
around all the suits) she was just saying how she didn't really want to
come because its no one would want her there really, because its about
the olympic bid and that. And how she just felt totally out of place
and how she felt 'like a complete lemon!'. She was just extremely nice
and NORMAL (YES FOLKS NORMAL!!! she had lots of spots and foundation
on!!!!! DISCOVERY: SHE'S ACTUALLY A REAL TEENAGER!!!!!
| Quote:
Me and D were
like: We were there! we've come to see you ! she was like: Awww thank
you!!!! Then D finally said something that I could actually hear: We are
gonna *** to all of your appearances to support you!!' I was like
yea!!!
She said: Awwww thank you!!! at least you know, I'll have someone
there that I could talk to!! She was just really sweet and HILARIOUS!
| Quote:
Emma smiled and just said sweetly in a quite voice:
It's Ok I know them. Her friend the blonde american woman took the pic
Wicked or what?!!
| Quote:
I had to catch her eye from really far
away. I gestured to the pic (that Jo gave us) and she understood and
gestured us to come. We went past the security with extremely smug faces.
I said: Sorry to bother you again, but could you sign this please. She
agreed with a little giggle and a huge smile. She looked at the pic
and smiled and said: Oh, this is a good one
| Quote:
So we
said our final goodbys and she gave us both a hug and a huge smile! I
said: sorry, we won't bother you again ! That was soooo wicked!!!!! So we
finally pulled ourselves from her and went to look around the shop,
still in COMPLETE shock. We bought her some gifts from Selfridges and when
we finally found the cafe., the security said she had gone 20mins ago.

one of them wasn't even an HP/Emma fan until the other one dragged her to the premiere...

Hogwarts RPG Name: Marcella Riddle Graduated | I am so gutted. Twice they met her! I am so envious too but it's better to be honest about that rather than hide it. It's kind of annoying that one of them wasn't a fan but I sorta knew that when only one of them got excited at the premiere about getting tickets from Emma Watson/David Heyman. |

| The poor girl sounded like she was a bit out of her depth, but I think she managed to pull it off in the end. They should have had the boys there with her too, but I suppose they wouldn't have been able to hear a thing above the screaming girls! |

| Cool. I want to go to Oxford someday ( no, not the college). I'm not the type to approach celebrities like that, because they're real people. I'd just casually talk, not say "Like", "Omigosh", "You're so great", "You're so Pretty", and "Can I have your autograph"?. You have to just start talking, like about sports or something casual if you want to keep casual. Some celebrities, like the late Marlon Brando, would've been very irritated by this type of behavior. Fortunatelly for this lady, the girl's young, and just downright nice and hospitable. You can tell, the last thing that I am is a "groupie"! |

Emma was in Oxford Street, not Oxford the city. |
