Emma Watson will be on the Today show in NY in the near future. It'll be for the Tale of Despereaux movie promotion. Emma, Matthew Broderick, Kevin Bacon, members of Fall Out Boy, and many others are going to be special celebrity guest "elves" and help with the gift collection every morning at 8:30 am. I imagine Emma will be there around December 19th, give or take a few days.
Emma was also named a hero by Field and Stream. Fellow Harry Potter costar Tom Felton was also named a hero. This is probably about Emma's involvement with the Wild Trout fund. If anybody has a scan please send it in to the email above.

On Nov. 24th, there was a special screening of Despereaux for the media. Hopefully that means some early reviews will come out.

On a Harry Potter note, the new trailer is on before Twilight. Even cooler, Hermione is in it plenty!
Plus, ABC Family continues the holiday cheer with its “Harry Potter” weekend Dec. 5 to 7, airing the first four installments of the popular film series as part of the network’s “25 Days of Christmas” programming event, officials said Monday. The trio and Michael Gambon will be discussing the upcoming Harry Potter movie plus there will be unseen footage introduced.

Emma turned on the lights at the Somerset House ice skating rink a few days ago. Emma enjoyed an evening with her adorable family after the ceremony. There are so many photos to be found on the net, I will just post my faves.
