Unless you’re a similar age to Emma Watson, it’s very difficult to be open and honest about how attractive she is. If you’ve watched the Harry Potter films, then you’ve effectively babysat her, watching her grow up from a child, into a gangly teen, ultimately, into Mia Farrow.
In any other circumstance, you could probably get done for grooming. Mercifully for hecklerspray readers, debasing yourself with pleasures of the wrist over a famous woman doesn’t count as something arrest worthy.
And so, cram this into your confused little skull-putty. Emma Watson does a big passionate kiss with no top on in Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows.
Before reading this, get this fact into your head: Emma Watson is 20 years old.
Okay? Good.
So, Emma Watson gets her top off for a passionate embrace in the new Harry Potter film and of course, it being part of a film, the reality of the situation was anything but sexual.
Watson says:
“I’m proud of it, and considering how bloody awkward it was, I’m really impressed we managed to make it look anything other than awkward – because Dan and I are like brother and sister, so it was tough making it look passionate.”
Of course, the scene needed to be shot with several takes, leaving the cast and crew to gawp on and watch two young people chewing each others tonsils over and over until the whole scenario became surreal. Oh, and there was the small matter of the first few being too tame which saw director David Yates telling his stars to be more
“pagan and mad”
Emma continues:
“I realised I would have fewer takes to do if I just got on with it and just gave David what he wanted, which was a passionate kiss.”
“It was only the day before that they said, ‘Oh, by the way, we hope it’s all right, but we want you to be topless, and we’re going to cover you in silver paint'”
And what does Daniel Radcliffe think about all this?
“I thought it was going to be like a soft, sensual sort of moment, and it was this very vigorous kissing scene. She really went for it. It caught me slightly off guard, but yeah, I’m not complaining.”
Dirty buggers. Not the actors – YOU LOT.
Okay, it’s us.
It’s always us.
Sorry.
