Emma Watson shines in NY Premiere of ‘Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince’

 

The cast we have grown to love over the years, arrive as adults for the premiere of ‘Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince’ at the Zeigfeld Theater in New York, New York, USA, on 09 July 2009. Once again, Emma Watson stunned the crowds in a daring leather dress. Word is we will be seeing more of Emma here in the states, as she will be attending school at New York’s Columbia University. Meanwhile though she has reportedly bought a new a North London townhouse, which she is also sharing with her boyfriend financier Jay Barrymore.

A source close to the actress — who was first linked to 26-year-old Jay around 16 months ago after meeting him at an awards ceremony – said: “Emma’s off to university in America soon but was determined to put some roots down in England first.

“Her relationship with Jay is going from strength to strength. They are spending increasing amounts of time with one another. It makes perfect sense for Jay to leave some of his stuff at hers and see how it goes. So far, so good — and Emma’s confident they’ll stay together even when she’s abroad.”

The 19-year-old star — who is very rich but well grounded, moved into a neighborhood close to her father Chris’ house and believes buying the property is a sound investment.

The source added to Britain’s Daily Mirror: “Despite the fame, she’s really got her head screwed on. After consulting with several property experts, as well as her family and friends, she’s decided to invest in her own place.
