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.

What a lovely and charming young lady she is. She has gotten more beautiful with every passing year. She has gained some poise with these films that will help her later on as well.

Go, Emma,go! It makes me think of other holiday light shows that I have seen and how dear they are to my memory. I'm glad that she's had the opportunity to realized a life-long dream.

That would be awesome to have the chance to do that!
And it is great that Emma has wanted to switch the lights on since she was a little girl!

Very neat.. it must have been really fun and honorable to be able to light the christmas lights in London. I bet it looks great this time of year. But I could have SWORN that christmas was in december... but I suppose that they don't celebrate Thanksgiving over there.

I wish the whole TRIO would have gotten the job, but I bet she was as excited as could be.
Perhaps the guys had previous engagements?
She really looks like she had a blast!

The light show sounds cool but couldn't they find someone better to start it. Like Rupert Grint, or Tom Felton.

That's great. Hope Emma had fun. Oxford street sounds cool. I wish I could go to England and see those lights. I never really thought about what Christmas is like in other countries.
