Actress Emma Watson at Elle Style Awards 2011 in London 

Emma Charlotte Duerre Watson was born in Paris, France to parents, Jacqueline Luesby and Chris Watson. At the age of five, Emma's parents divorced and she then moved to Oxfordshire, England with her mother and younger brother, Alexander. Since the divorce, Emma's extended family has grown as her parents both have new partners. Her father has a son named Toby, and identical twin daughters, Nina and Lucy, and her mother's partner has two sons. Emma spent much of her childhood residing in England with her mother and stepfather, younger brother, and two stepbrothers.

From the age of six, Emma knew that she wanted to be an actress and, for a number of years, she trained at the Oxford branch of Stagecoach Theatre Arts, a part-time theatre school where she studied singing, dancing and acting. By the age of ten, she had performed and taken the lead in various Stagecoach productions and school plays, including "Arthur: The Young Years" and "The Happy Prince". In 1999, casting began for Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001), the film adaptation of British author J.K. Rowling's bestselling novel. 

Casting agents found Emma through her Oxford theatre teacher, and the producers of the film were impressed by her confidence and her natural acting abilities. After eight consistent auditions, producer David Heyman told Emma and fellow applicants, Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint, that they had been cast for the roles of the three leads, Hermione Granger, Harry Potter and Ron Weasley. It has even been said that Rowling had Emma as her first choice for Hermione Granger since her first screen test.

Emma Watson smells lovely, apparently

Emma Watson,
no longer a child wizard and instead a serious model and
actress-type-person, is the new ambassadress for Lancôme. We didn’t even
think that ambassadress was a real world until we looked it up, but
there you go.

Em-Wats, as we’re calling in her a no doubt short-lived experiment,
must smell fantastic. Far from reeking of loose Hufflepuff badgers and
discount broom polish cut through with the panic sweat of sexually
aroused pubescent warlocks, she smells of fancy new perfume Tresor
Midnight Rose.

'Midnight Rose' sounds a lot sexier than 'Midmorning Daffodil'

“But what does that perfume smell like, FHM?” we hear literally no-one asking. We’re going to tell you anyway. The blurb we found here
seems to take on the unenviable task of weaving scent notes with a
passable narrative, and it fails in a way that can only be described as
charming. Charming, and hard to read.

In addition to smelling of mundane things we might recognise, like
“raspberries,” “vanilla” and “rose petals,” it also smells of
“indolence” and “love at first sight". Or perhaps the raspberries and
the rose petals are actually in love? It’s not clear.

We certainly hope the author wasn't paid for that

We think that perfumes smell of too many things. You know what smells
nice? Scones. Why can’t people do a perfume that smells of scones? Or
coffee? Or bacon?

While we’re working on our Cedar-Smoked Eau de Pork fragrance (“A
thick-cut slice of heaven”), enjoy this video comprised of a bunch of
stills of Emma being shifted around to give the impression of movement,
and the girl herself chatting about “the magic of midnight” and
“youthful energy". Cracking stuff.

We headed to London to spend a few days with Emma Watson on her home turf—including a stop by the set of her first Vogue cover shoot, with Mario Testino. On the eve of her twenty-first birthday, the actress talked to us about the perils and pleasures of her young whirlwind life, and what she's looking forward to most in her next post–Harry Potter chapter.

Emma Watson first Love

Filming together for almost ten years, of course, love the location of incidents inevitable by the players Harry Potter. One of them, is Emma Watson, Hermione Granger actress, who turns a crush on Tom Felton, Draco Malfoy's!

The 21-year-old actress said that she had fallen in love with Felton, who became his nemesis in the film. Love this location recognition occurs when filming the first two Harry Potter films.

"During the first two films, I really had a crush on Tom Felton. He was my first love," said Watson, who starred in this film was started when he was still very young.

"He also knew (that I like him). We often talk about this, until now, and often laughed about it. We are now friendly, and fun happen," recalled the girl who is now concentrated into this model.

And precisely because of young age in starting a career in Hollywood is that not only led to romance for Emma, but also having trouble finding a boyfriend until now. Men like what the hell the dream? "I want someone smart, kind and funny. I'm attracted to a man who truly dedicated to what they're doing," explains Emma.
