| | | Emma Watson speaks at Oxford University
HP actress Emma Watson gave a speech yesterday at Oxford University and spoke about everything from playing Hermione to the importance of education in her life, falling down the Yule Ball steps and even how dentists would come on set to fill in gaps when she lost teeth.
On Hermione: Quote:
She bosses the guys around and makes having a “brain, not beauty, cool.” Although “slightly socially inept” Hermione is “not ashamed of herself.” Emma says that the saddest thing for a girl to do is dumb herself down for a guy. Hermione wouldn’t do it, so neither should anyone else.
On the HP directors: Quote:
"Alfonso Cuarón taught me about beauty," Mike Newell taught her that "acting just wasn't enough” and David Yates “taught me about finding truth.” After five films and many great directors and actors about her to inspire, she has finally “got to grips,” she said.
On the most magical moment of filming during Order of the Phoenix: Quote:
Luna Lovegood described the D.A. as “like having friends” and, for Emma, when the D.A. first got together and filmed their first scene it was “really cool”.
TLC attended the event and you can read their entire account here.

That sounded like a lovely speech. She's a really special person. She could have worded the "not a dream come true" part a little better because of her fans but I think honesty is always a good thing. It's one of the reasons I love Rupert so much so it was nice that she was being like that too.

Excellent Interview By Our All Time Favourite Emma Watson.
You Are The Best Emma And Down To Earth Just Like Her Co-star Dan . The Speech Was Great And Even The Questions .
Emma Fell Down During The Yule Ball Was A Surprise For Me . Anyways We Will See You In The Future Acting Some One Else And Wriggling Off The Hermione Character.
