Happy 18th birthday Hermione, er, Emma!Happy birthday, Hermione! Emma Watson is 18 today. Whew, thank heavens, because now I feel a little less skeezy. Just a little, but then every bit helps. Though, to be serious for just a second (but just one), I couldn't be more thankful that the precocious Ms. Watson has reached this milestone with age-appropriate grace and modesty.
I've been a fan of Emma's since she began her journey through Harry Potter's magical universe seven years ago. Back then she portrayed the bookish brainiac with adorable ease. Now, her Hermione has matured into a confident, capable young woman. Gosh, how refreshing.
Besides being a great student who aced her exit examinations, Emma has been a charming role model for young women everywhere. Aside from one leaked photo of Emma drinking a beer (and just a Corona at that, geez) she has kept herself out of the tawdry tabloid pages. No shots of various exposed body parts. No stories of feuds with celebutants. No word of diva behavior. Like I said, refreshing.
With only two more Harry Potter films to go, I'm looking forward to seeing Emma's post-Potter career. Over the winter she starred in the British TV drama Ballet Shoes. And in December her animated feature, The Tale of Despereaux, comes to theaters. With her talent and intellect, Emma should be able to step into other roles with ease. Though, I'll admit, I'll probably always have a soft spot for her as Hermione.
Happy birthday, Emma, and best wishes for many, many more. Submitted by on April 15, 2008 - 4:45pm. |

Hehe, I'm only 21 so I'm not skeezy. Love her.
Oh, and my according to my brother, the last HP book is being made into two movies. Has anyone else heard this?
Yep, it's true!
Great!
I'm gonna top this: I'm only 20. So ready to meet Emma *g*
No, serious. She will definitely be huge after finishing the HP-films. I'm looking forward to that!
"With only two more Harry
I'm also looking forward to see where she'll be going in the future. However, because I'm a huge Harry Potter fandom nerd (and because i never want the constant stream of harry potter entertainment to leave me), I'm going to count the last movie as 2 since it's being split, haha
Marry me?
Hey Emma Watson! I'm turning 18 is less than a month so... I'm not skeezy! Wanna get hitched? I'm Filipino so my 18th birthday is pretty much like a wedding, we can double-celebrate it! What do you say? I'll take care of everything, you just bring the dessert, we can share it. ;)
(Oh the ideas I get when I'm not on SSRI's!!!)
Ahh, Emma's birthday's on
Wingardium Birthdayosa!
Just Love Emma as Hermione. She's done a marvelous job and I must say she is aging quite nicely. She's a beautiful young woman.
Thank God she is 18 now as like you Dorothy, I don't feel as 'skeezy' as I did before.
Happy Birthday Emma!!!
btw, I also heard that the last book will be made into 2 films. So that means we have 3 films to go. YAY!
woo
my birthday's in 3 weeks but i'm glad our birthdays are so close together i suppose :p lol i don't really like harry potter that much though o.o not cuz it's a bad franchise! i just can't stand a movie for that long without falling asleep :/ lol but the 3 movies i have watched are great none the less. happy birthday emma! :D <3

Happy Birthday Emma!
Feliz dia!
Wow, Emma is only 18??? Damn... heheh, but like you said dorothy, I now feel a little less bad about fantazising about Hermione.
I really hope she gets some good roles after Harry Potter, she deserves it!

yeah for being legal
I can find her hot now not just a cute little girl. Its so nice when they become legal lol. jk I love the harry potter world and no one else could be Hermione, I am alost looking forward to seeing ballet shoes I have heard good things. Happy b/day Emma and anyone else who shares it with her. :)
what is skeeze age?
Yes...
someone please define the "skeeze age."
i think if you are 20 and date anyone under 18, you are an automatic skeeze. even if you are 20 and he/she is 17...but outside of that rule, i don't know what the skeeze age is...since it's not a real word...unless you are looking it up in the urban dictionary...and that only says that skeeze is between a skank and a sleaze...i may be a sleaze but i'm no skank...the skank is the younger girl that dates me...so together we'd just be skeezy...how the hell did i write a paragraph on this subject?
bye.
Damn, guess i'm a
Bitter sweet? Maybe? No?
Am I the only one lamenting the revocation of my pervy craddle-robbin' label?
I will miss people giving me the judgemental eyeball when I profess my lecherous obsession with Hermione Granger.

Birthday Celebrations
Legal
Age of consent in the UK is 16, so Emma's been 'legal' for two years. Don't know whether she's taken advantage of that status or not, however. There hasn't been too much prurient speculation in the tabloids so she's kept it off their radar if she has.
Happy birthday to youuuuuu...
She's awesome. As a member to the post-Potter generation, I know I'll be watching anything she puts out after HP is said and done.
Harry Potter, Harry Potter, Uh! (Puppet Pals, anyone?)
...and all was well, and the world smiled.
The Rules..
... isn't the rule that anyone you date should be a minimum of "Half your age plus 7?"... lets see... (26/2)+7=20... that would still make me a skeezeball...

LOOVVVEEE
i fell in love with emma watson when i saw her in harry potter and the chamber of secrets. I was 11 so it's not creepy or anything. but really she has been my one long standing celebrity crush, and i knneeeww today was her birthday because im a bit stalkerish like that.
anyway yeah. LOVE. love. love. LOVEE<33333333 her.
Hmm
well she's a few months older than me so I can say, without an ounce of skeeze, that she's gorgeous. And totally not one of the main reason for me watching the Harry Potter films =| I could listen to her voice all day...weird but whatever.
It was so crazy the way she came back in the third film and was...HOT. Geeky got sexy, real quick.
totally Happy Birthday!
totally Happy Birthday!

live for lust die for love
I don't like how she plays
I don't like how she plays Hermione (except, maybe, in the fifth film), I always thought they were trying to make the character look like the actress, less nerdy and, well, less ugly than she's supposed to be.
Anyway, she's better than Radcliffe so happy birthday to her.
Late to the celebration...
