From indiatimes.com August 25th 2012, "Harry Potter" actress Emma Watson has shown her support for a charity supplying vital equipment to schools in Sub-Saharan Africa. Back to school Shop work to raise funds for education supplies including stationery and uniforms, as well as six-month or one-year bursaries for impoverished students in the region, reports express. Watson, who showed her support for good causes in 2009 by launching her own ethical clothing range in aid of fair trade fashion charity People Tree, has thrown her weight behind the campaign. "Please help CAMFED with their campaign to give that one thing their students need to go to school," the 22-year-old tweeted Thursday."
Echee says: Emma sent a tweet out in the beginning of June saying her planned trip to Zambia had been cancelled due to work commitments. In that time up to the beginning of this month (August) when her small role in the movie Noah starting filming she did nothing but walk a pink dog to being photographed at NYC restaurants to finally being seen at a beach house in the Hampton's. The only thing she did that was work related was a 10 second Olympic spots for the London game. I covered this. First link below goes into better detail. Why they are even bringing up People Tree is beyond me. That one was a flop because she did not put her heart and soul into as much as she spoke about it.

She tweeted about Camfed. So the fuck what? Why is it all celebrities have to do is say they support a cause and people are all like, "Oh wow that is just so awesome of them and blah blah blah." Seriously how about a little action with all the talk? Would be fucking nice don't you think?
From entertainmentwise.com August 25th 2012, "Although Emma Watson may no longer be a student at Hogwarts, it seems that there's still no shortage of reading material at Em's house, as fans have taken it upon themselves to send her Bibles...out of all the gifts? Really? The actress received copies of The Bible whilst starring in the Harry Potter films, because fans thought that 'she needed to be guided', apparently. According to The Sun, Emma said: "Finding our 'Harry Potter' films un-Christian, people think I need to be guided and send me The Bible. I now have a collection of 20." Well at least you had some form of entertainment in between takes, Em..."

I love how the entertainment media is able to pull out older non relevant quotes that I believe is a correlation of some sort with the biblical movie Noah she is currently filming. I am not sure since she is back in London. She was only in Iceland for a few weeks. Her role must be very small. However they can't pull up more relevant quotes when Emma makes claims like she would never wear mini dresses, doesn't get her flash out out, couldn't get her ear pierced until after Potter, doesn't go clubbing and she does not wear big sunglasses or carry designer hand bags, her education or charity bullshit, etc, etc, etc, (the short list) when there are loads of photos that say otherwise. They don't report her contradicting quotes or her hypocrisy. Even when she lies like she did with George Craig and Johnny Simmons, etc, etc, (another short list) we got nothing. They don't call her out on any of it. They keep on portraying her as this innocent and honest English rose. They keep on reporting said truths of Emma that are not.
The news must be very slow to post a quote from five years ago and report a celebrities tweet. I wonder if the reason why the media treats her with kids gloves in because her father is one of the worlds top five telecommunications lawyers?
New candid of Emma in the UK from yesterday
From iheartwatson.net Oct 2011 (Elle magazine), "“My problem is I’m a bit boring really,” she says, with the hint of a smile. “That’s why the tabloids feel the need to make up more interesting stuff. The way I choose to look when I’m not doing something public is very specific. I don’t carry around designer bags, I don’t wear big sunglasses. I’m not comfortable being the centre of attention. When I’m not working, when I’m not being Emma Watson (???), I’m just trying not to stand out.”
Click this post I did on "big sunglasses and designer hand bags. I guess she's not being Emma Watson again. I wonder who she is being in this photo. Is it one of her characters she says she plays in photo shoots? I know, I know, right? How do we know it's a designer hand bag? Yeah you're right it's a hand me down from her Grandma, lol. Nothing is cheap on this girl. Those white shorts she was photographed in the Hamptions has a retail price of 70 American dollars. This outfit she has on is not cheap even though it may look like it. And none of it is People Tree by the way.
Just for shits and giggles
1.)Hey look Emma with that Pink dog from last spring. So wonder they thought it was her dog because when does her friend Sophie (on right; owner of dog) get in the news?
2.) Hey Emma in 2008 with big singlasses and look her ears are pierced. She said she had to want until after Harry Potter.
Hey there is Emma and that dog again which is not hers but I can see how people might think it is. But hey no "big sunglasses or a designer hand bag" as far as I can tell. I guess she is being Emma here. Look at that happy face Emma is sporting. The girl never looks like she smells a fart to be honest.
The comments on dailymail.co.uk are oddly ripping her a new one. Her fans must be a sleep because they jump on DM for every positive and negative article about her.

other than the 30 seconds that spent on that tweet. What else has she done to support them??
Good point. Why is it all celebrities have to do is say they support a cause and people are all like, "Oh wow that is just so awesome of them and blah blahb blah.
I'm going to add this to my post.
I'm not so much commenting on the actual content here (sorry), but if she was spotted back in the UK yesterday, then doesn't that mean her filming for Noah is over?
One, that was very short. Her role must be just like the MWWM role, if not smaller.
Two, what other work commitments kept her from doing Camfed, especially if Noah just wrapped and she's been socializing and vacationing during her "free time."
Three, she would have had time to go back to school, as first day of classes for Fall 2012 at Brown is September 5. Or better yet, even later if she were to complete a whole year of classes at Oxford.
What are these other work commitments? At the moment, she doesn't seem to have much of an excuse to not go back to school and do Camfed, of course with some publicity for Perks since it's supposed to be her "break-out" role. Thoughts? Am I missing something?
xxS
Like I said in my linked posts its not like she has a regular 9 to 5 job. She had plenty of time to visit her charity flavor of the moment. Maybe they are on a break from filming after three weeks? Maybe her part is not set to film again for a while. If it was a big part she'd still be there I suppose. She's playing the g/f of one of noah's sons (logan lerman). Her character is not in the "thought up by man" as full of shit as she is bible.
Echee:
Oh, I know. She definitely doesn't have a normal person's nine to five job. Though we don't know her filming schedule, quite frankly, it looks terrible for her to be caught in so many places that do not relate to work. I understand celebs have their own personal lives, but to say that you can't do something like Camfed because of work commitments and then go to say, the Hamptons, that just looks bad. And true about the filming, perhaps she has more to do.
About this Camfed bit in general. Anyone can be an ambassador. Perhaps all she's doing is letting them use her name.That's not so much of support, just allowing yourself to be sold out and benefit from because it incorporates something she's supposedly completely supportive of.
xxS
"other than the 30 seconds that spent on that tweet. What else has she done to support them??"
That was my question as well. I can't think of another group that gets as much praise and worship for doing so little as celebrities. And Emma is near the top of the list since the praise to criticism ratio is heavily weighted towards praise for doing fuck all.
Like that graphic. One 140 character or less tweet and now she's an ambassador for Camfed? That's all it takes?
Oh, she's also actively pursued an undergraduate education, just like millions of other people.
And the best one, she's an advocate for teens because she's playing one in a movie! I guess every actor who has played a cop is an advocate for law enforcement or every actor who has played a serial killer is an advocate for psychopaths. You can almost smell the stupid...
As I noted in the last post, the quote I found about the bibles was from 2005 so that was 7 years ago. If she mentioned it again in 2007, then she was recycling her own quote. Can't really blame her if the Sun brought it up again, I just thought how boring do you have to be if they had to go back that far for something to write about?
She and Will seem to be strolling along quite nicely without any problems though. I guess the crazy museum people are waiting for her at the museum.
"...but to say that you can't do something like Camfed because of work commitments and then go to say, the Hamptons, that just looks bad"
lol, she went to Bangladesh, visited all the poor people living on a couple of dollars a day and then a day later was at some ultra posh luxury spa in Thailand and no one batted an eye. I think her sweaters and scarves are made out of teflon.
Sorry for the double post, xxS snuck in while I was composing my last masterpiece, lol.
crap, triple post, lol
ONTD has a post up of some celebs heading to college this fall. Celebrity higher-education-spokesprincess Emma "Education is so important" Watson isn't among them. But that's what makes her different from all the other celebs, her insistence on getting an education. Wait, that can't be right.
Not sure if the link will work but here goes:
http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/71459860.html#cutid1
@ALBS: "and then a day later was at some ultra posh luxury spa in Thailand and no one batted an eye."
Really? This is actually the first time I'm hearing it. Thanks for sharing the link. Is it updated though? Because I think Dakota Fanning isn't a freshman anymore...
@xxs: Someone posted on a site (I can't remember if it was Twitter or Facebook) that she was seen in the airport, so I'm guessing she's going back to New York?
Maybe she likes throwing around her name so that she can be shoved down our throats more (which quite frankly, I am sick of)
Yeah I don't understand why people praise her for pursuing an education. A lot of celebs and people do, plus having education doesn't automatically mean you are intelligent or better than other people, but a lot of her fans act like she is so much better than the rest of the world.
Emma was in Iceland for the time the cast was in Iceland. The same amount of time as Russell, Jennifer, Logan and Douglas. They've all left Iceland as the shooting there has ended. It resumes in New York next week. It was only the crew who were there a week earlier and left a week later.
That's amazing. Someone on the Noah crew is commenting on my blog. What else can you tell me?
Lot of help that bible can do. What a generous girl. I mean, who needs money, food, shelter, water or stability when you can have the bible?

Sorry for sneaking in haha.
"lol, she went to Bangladesh, visited all the poor people living on a couple of dollars a day and then a day later was at some ultra posh luxury spa in Thailand and no one batted an eye. I think her sweaters and scarves are made out of teflon."
Yeah, I remember that. And I made mention in some other post that I think it's interesting she didn't wear something with the People Tree logo while she was there, like on a t-shirt. I say that because when Bonnie Wright just visited Africa, she wore the effort's logo like everybody else. Watson was very fashionable and it makes me wonder. I honestly can't even imagine what the people there thought of this posh, rich white girl walking around in clearly more expensive clothing then their own.
Nina:
"@xxs: Someone posted on a site (I can't remember if it was Twitter or Facebook) that she was seen in the airport, so I'm guessing she's going back to New York?"
Yeah, perhaps. I mean, I don't really care where the girl is, but I just think it's funny that she's back from Iceland well before school would start at Oxford and just in time for Brown. If she's filming in NY, as the Anonymous stated, then I suppose I can see why she'd be back.
xxS
As Anon above said the set of Noah is actually just outside New York, pictures of the ark they've built have been in tge media. The cast and crew were only in Iceland for those few weeks to get their outdoor shoots that's all. You can follow Darren on twitter, everyone is gone from Iceland and New York begins next week. They all got some time off while the production moved. The actors and crew have been tweeting about it. The other cast were in Iceland only the same amount of time as Emma.
I can tell you that the movie is based on a french graphic novel. That Ila is a pretty big part, as big as a young twenty something girl could get anyway, for any bigger part she'd have to be male! Also she plays Doug's wife, not Logan's.
The Lla is a pretty big part? ORLY? You on set every day? Did you read the script?
@Echee
"The comments on dailymail.co.uk are oddly ripping her a new one. Her fans must be a sleep because they jump on DM for every positive and negative article about her."
I quickly counted 7 things that the DM got wrong in that article. They are almost as bad as The Sun.
I don't trust any website anymore! No one seems to care about getting things accurate these days. They just say anything to get attention.
Just for the record, the majority of the comments are postive toward Emma not negative. Some are negative, but 75 percent or so seem to be positive.
Noah is not done filming by the way, they are just changing locations. People should wait until they have all the facts before they pass Judgement.
Also, the Camfed and recent school speculation on this Blog is all based on tiny fragments of Emma's life we get through random candid pictures.
Recent pictures in the Hamptons, Iceland, New York City, the UK or wherever comprise less than 1 percent of Emma's life.
There could be more going than we can see by surfing the Internet. The Hamptons are like an hour or so from New York City. Emma has been in NYC a lot. She has an apartment there now.
Maybe she has more 'work' related things going on than can be assertained by random pictures of her in her underwear.
There is not enough information to come to any concrete conclusions at this point on whether she should have gone to Camfed or should have gone to school this Fall.
Gilbert
Yes Gilbert but you know the other %99, right? You fail to realise she does not have a normal 9 to 5 job and she tweeted her cancelled commitments back in June. She began filming Noah a few weeks ago.
Please do me a favor and take your not enough information back to the emma praise sites. When you are doing that talk to them about the Internet thing you just said. That would be appreciated. Did you read what I said above to XXS about her being back in London? I guess not.
What I am saying is that people seem to be crucifying her for being in the Hamptons after she said couldn't go to Camfed because of work. It now appears that the production of the Noah movie is at least partially centered around NYC.
Is it possible that before everyone went to Iceland there were several weeks of meetings in NYC to get the cast and crew breifed on what to do? Maybe rehearsals and stuff like that?
You see some pictures of Emma in her underwear looking like she is on vacation in the Hamptons and make all sorts of assumptions.
Maybe the pre- production of Noah started much earlier than the filming of Noah. Maybe it would of been very difficult for Emma to fly to Zambia just before Noah started. The logistics of a trip like that are not trivial.
Maybe Emma was working at the time she was seen in the Hamptons but she had a couple of days off. We don't know, there is not enough information. I don't see that Emma has done anything that wrong in last the few months. I realize most people here will strongly disagree, however.

"That Ila is a pretty big part, as big as a young twenty something girl could get anyway, for any bigger part she'd have to be male!"
Um that sounds a little sexist to me or maybe at least snide on your part. I say this as a woman by the way. At any rate you are wrong because there seems to be more roles for young females in their 20's (actresses) then there are young males in their 20's (actors).
There are some who do get big, major parts such as Robert Pattinson, Daniel Radcliffe, Shia Lebouf(spelling?)and a few others,but there are quite a few of them who hardly get much work. There are also some who really only seem to be getting smaller roles in films such as Rupert Grint, Taylor Lautner(mostly due to his first major role be a disaster) and a few others. Some people do not have what it takes to be a lead.At any rate I really don't think Emma has completely paid her dues yet she has only been in like five movies outside of Potter and we have only seen her in two and heard her in one. Perks is fixing to come out. She has one movie coming out next year and one in 2014. We don't know if and when she will film beauty and your voice in my head sounds like its off the table for now. She has not shown that she has bankibility and she has not had Rave reviews from her work in the Vain of Robert Pattinson in Cosmopolis or Radcliffe in Equus, Jennifer Lawrence in Winters bone, or Elizabeth olsen in MMMM, the list goes on. So basically what I am saying is that she might not be getting bigger roles because she has not shown her worth yet not because she is a 20 something year old Female. Watson's still pretty much up in the air in terms of her career nobody knows where she is going yet, up or down.
Gilbert you are 21 years old
Life some life first
You are naive and gullible
I read that with what you type
Gilbert:
Echee is right when he questions that you know the other 99%. Quite frankly, ideas can be crafted based upon what has been provided by her and photographers. That's all we know. There's room for speculation and/or benefit of the doubt, but to dismiss what's been given and stated that there's so much more we don't know as a fact, is not credible.
xxS
"The Lla is a pretty big part? ORLY? You on set every day? Did you read the script?"
Well to be fair, Echee, if the part was first offered to Dakota Fanning and Saoirse Ronan then there's a pretty good chance that it is a big part. The question is what can Emma do with it. That's a pretty big downgrade going from Dakota and Saoirse to Emma we'll just have to see if it's still a big part when the film comes out.
"I don't see that Emma has done anything that wrong in last the few months."
You never do.
Ila isn't an enormous part - it's a support, and not the largest one. Noah is kind of all about Crowe, a little bit ensemble (although they would have come up with a better cast if it were meant to be an all-round fantastic acting thing, but you've essentially got Crowe and Hopkins, and maybe Connelly)
I meant its the biggest part she could get in the movie as a twenty something female. So people saying she could only get a small part are wrong, Ila is the biggest part possible for her in this. She could only have gotten a bigger part than she did if she was male ie for Noah. I wasn't speaking about movies generally. Though I terms of movies generally being in this will be huge for her.
There were rehearsals in New York for several weeks before leaving for Iceland. That's why Emma was in New York. Everyone is now back in New York to recommence shooting.
Noticed another discrepancy/contradiction with Emma when looking into this People Tree thing:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/you/article-1246238/Emma-Watsons-fair-trade-fashion-Harry-Potter-star-unveils-new-clothing-range.html#ixzz0eKUESDjn
Yes I know, the Daily Fail, but it's a verified interview with Emma herself. She says she found out about People Tree through a friend named Alex Nicholls, who introduced her to Safia Minney.
Whereas Safia Minney says differently:
http://www.iheartwatson.net/2011/08/24/thisnthat-quotes-round-up/
"How exactly did the partnership with the actress Emma Watson come to be?
It was her mother that knew someone on our board – an Oxford Professor who works a lot on fair-trade. A meeting was set up and it went from there!"
It's as though she's hesitant to admit she's using her parental connections or something. It's really odd, how she'd lie about something as irrelevant as how she met Safia Minney.
http://emmamedia.net/displayimage.php?album=804&pid=30516#top_display_media
Hah. She says she's uncomfortable in hot pants and leather. Really, Emma? Beholdeth the leather hot pants:
http://emmamedia.net/displayimage.php?album=439&pid=15743#top_display_media
Thanks guys and Im going to post a new one in a second. If you want to carry anything you said her recently (meaning what I just approved) over to the new post go ahead.
So Emma I know your stylist is not around all the time but why did u have to slip into your grandmothers green jacket?
"It's as though she's hesitant to admit she's using her parental connections or something. It's really odd, how she'd lie about something as irrelevant as how she met Safia Minney."
That's what compulsive liars do. They lie about everything no matter how small or insignificant.

Emma didn't send Bibles. Fans sent Bibles to Emma.
