Celebrity Gossip: Harry Potter Star can't Blend in at School

When Emma Watson started college in the U.S., all she wanted was to be a normal college student. Unfortunately for the Harry Potter starlet, many of her fellow Harvard students aren't willing to let that happen. Watson, a freshman at the prestigious university, attempted to blend in at a school football game. A Harvard student magazine refused to leave Emma be, claiming beforehand that they would be "possibly stalking" her during the game. Students from the magazine then proceeded to, well, stalk Watson, posting Twitter updates throughout the game as to her whereabouts and doings. According to The New York Post, Watson was left "quite shaken" by the incidents. So much for blending in!

Funnyman Will Ferrell is set to become a father - again! Ferrell and his wife, Viveca Paulin, are expecting a baby boy in January 2010. The new boy will join the couple's two other sons, Magnus, 5, and Mattias, 2.

The Travolta extortion trial is well under way in the Bahamas, with Travolta fighting back against a local paramedic and attorney who he claims threatened to imply he was responsible for his son Jett's death if not paid $25 million dollars. According to recent testimony by Travolta, a consent document which Travolta signed upon the paramedic's arrival was at the heart of the issue. The two accused allegedly threatened to sell information to the media, inferring that Travolta intended his son to die or was in some other way culpable. The trial continues.

Elizabeth Smart, 21, is finally set to testify against Brian David Mitchell, the man who allegedly abducted her from her bedroom and held her captive for months as a "plural wife." Much to Elizabeth and her family's frustration, the case has dragged on for years, with Brian David Mitchell's competency being the main issue. Mitchell has done his best to make things difficult, interrupting previous competency hearings by humming or singing religious tunes. Smart and her family are ready to see justice served, even though Elizabeth may be questioned for several hours by federal prosecutors and defense attorneys. "Whatever happens," says her father, Ed Smart, "Elizabeth is prepared."

Celebrity Gossip: Demi Lovato and Trace Cyrus Break up

It appears that the *Harry Potter *actor Jamie Waylett, who plays Vincent Crabbe in the movie series, is going to be avoiding jail this time around. The actor pled guilty to growing 10 marijuana plants in his mother's home. The reason why the judge let him off without jail time is because he saw his pot growing endeavor as "small scale." He was sentenced to 120 hours of community service. The community service could involve clearing graveyards, picking up trash, cleaning graffiti, and clearing ditches.

Disney star Demi Lovato has broken up with her boyfriend and Miley's big brother, Trace Cyrus. Trace, who is also a singer for a band called Metro Station said, "Demi is one of my good friends and I definitely became very, very close with her in the past few months, and it's something I really wanted to make work. But unfortunately, we both have very busy schedules - we're both on tour right now." Despite the breakup, the two are still friends and have no hard feelings. Cyrus, 20, went on to say that him and Lovato, 16 had too much of an age difference as well. "When someone is that much younger, you're looking for different things in relationships. Maybe when she's older and we've both matured, we'll be looking for the same thing and it can work out." Cyrus is kicking off his headlining tour this month and then after that will be joining his sister Miley on her tour as well. It appears he really doesn't have time for a girlfriend.

Despite rumors that Katherine Heigl was not coming back to Grey's Anatomy, she has confirmed that she is and is shooting the next season of the show. Although she told David Letterman that she is on the show, she said, "I'm either there as a ghost, on the other side or I survived a disease no one survives." She also added that she hopes that Grey's Anatomy sticks around for awhile and would love to see it last as long as ER did. Although, she is glad to be back, she says that she does miss her close friend T.R. Knight, who left the show last season.

Celebrity Style Mashup: Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe - Style Magic

Emma Watson is a popular fashion icon, thanks to her continuing role as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter series. It's no wonder girls and women are looking to Emma Watson for fashion inspiration, as she has truly blossomed into a beautiful and fashionable woman.

When you watch Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe on screen, do you remember the two young actors from the first movie and how young and sweet they both were? They've both grown up since then, and so have their styles and their fan base.

Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe: Style Magic
Neither Emma Watson or Daniel Radcliffe is going to take fashion only half-way. They are going to go full bore, just as we expect them to in "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince."

Smart in Stripes
Daniel Radcliffe, as Harry Potter, shows us that you can look smart in a striped sweater. The beauty of the striped sweater is that Harry's dear friend Hermione could borrow that sweater and pair it with a pleated skirt, and make it look even smarter. Isn't that just like Hermione?

She's also smart about footwear, as she knows at a moment's notice she can be off running through the drafty castle. A pair of warm, supportive shoes are a must for the busy student.

Feminine Frock
Although she could wear an otherwise masculine knit. Emma Watson does feminine well. At home in a 1940s Retro style flower print dress, complete with high collar and short sleeves, she's stunning.

Daniel Radcliffe: Edge of Fashion
Daniel Radcliffe sticks with simple, classic styles to bring out his best features. He understands the importance of crisp, dress up shirts, sans tie, paired with straight black jeans and the most stylish Oxfords or loafers available.

A snug t-shirt with a pair of loose fitting jeans are also a classic look for the young Daniel Radcliffe. No matter what the pair of these stars wears, it feels like magic.

Celebrity Gossip: Rihanna and Chris Brown Trial Ready to Start

Jun 22, 2009 by Stephanie Sims

Vampires have bitten the nation! With Twilight being dubbed as the next Harry Potter, until the second movie in the series, New Moon, comes out, people will have to settle for season two of True Blood, a vampire series on HBO. Anna Paquin stars, and according to various entertainment websites, she'll be showing lots more skin. Photos of a topless Paquin filming a scene have been leaked, and it's rumored even more of her will be bared during the season.

Speaking of baring skin, Bethenny Frankel of The Real Housewives of New York showed a little too much in a sheer black jumpsuit at the Apollo Theater 75th Anniversary Gala the week of June 13th. We guess now that the show has wrapped, she really wants to put herself out there.

And finally, Rihanna is getting ready to testify against her ex-boyfriend (and rumored current boyfriend, according to gossip sites), Chris Brown, in his assault trial. The singer will be in LA Monday, June 22 to testify at the preliminary hearing. It looks like Brown is already trying to clean up his public image, however. He's allegedly hired a crisis management company called Sitrick and Company to help reverse his public image. Everything he's done thus far, from his appearance at the NBA final game with a Rihanna-lookalike to his video on YouTube has been the carefully calculated work of the firm. But even though making more tame public appearances might make the trial fade into the background for some people, we're sure it's not working with Rihanna. The preliminary hearing should be interesting.
