Emma Watson, Hermione Granger from the Harry Potter movies, appeared at the annual Oxford Street Christmas Lights today to kick off the holiday season and FilmMagic.com has just posted some pictures
of the event.
Emma commented on being there to turn on the lights:
I have wanted to do it ever since I was very young and I saw the Spice Girls do it. I love Oxford Street. I have come here most Christmases because I love the lights and all the beautiful displays in all the shops.
The following sites have also posted additional pictures: Miss-Watson.org, Wire Image and Harry Loves Hermione. Fan site Emma-Watson.net has a report as well as some picture which can be viewed here.
Remember there will also be a Harry Potter-themed light show each night through Jan. 5.

'I have wanted to do it ever since I was very young and I saw the Spice Girls do it.' --> Cool! I was a huge spice girls fan when I was younger and I remember the time when they turned on the oxford street lights! Too bad there isn't a video of the event.

Ah cool! Thats very nice of her, taking her time to do that. I wasn't aware that the Spice Girls also participated in that, I wasn't very interested in noticing I suppose. But its great she's getting to do something she's always wanted. Go Em!

Obviously turning on the Oxford Street Lights is going to be news, it is every year in the UK atleast. Its got nothing to do with it being Emma, shes just there for the Harry Potter sponsorship, so shes lucky! The Spice Girls, ergh... I remember all to well, I hated them so badly haha, I hope she didnt mean she was a fan.

It looks like she had a great time! That's so funny she said she had wanted to do it since she saw the Spice Girls do it! Now little girls will say they want to do it because they saw Emma Watson turn on the lights!!
