Emma Watson sa n?scut în Paris, mama ei este Jacqueline Luesby ?i tat?l Chris Watson, avocat englez care a tr?it în Fran?a în timpul na?terii Emei Emma Watson was born in Paris, France to Jacqueline Luesby and Chris Watson, English lawyers who lived in France at the time; she has a younger brother named Alex. She lived in Paris until age five, then moved with her mother and brother to Oxford, England.
Watson attended The Dragon School, a private preparatory school, until June 2003, when she moved to Headington School, a private all-girls school in Oxford. In June 2006, Watson sat GCSE examinations in 10 subjects, achieving eight A* and two A grades. She is studying for her Advanced Subsidiary (AS) levels in Dance, Art and English literature.
Watson is an avid sports player and her musical interests (as of Spring 2005) include singing, hip hop, blues, and classic rock, including Eminem, Eric Clapton, U2 and Nelly Furtado.
She has said that she feels her celebrity status is partly responsible for her not having a boyfriend, stating: "Guys are either intimidated by me, or they have defences up, or they like to take the piss out of me." Watson was ranked number 98 in the FHM 100 Sexiest Women in the World 2007 list.
She was born in 1990 and is now 18 at the moment. (as of 2008 ... 2009 she is now 19)
Prior to her role in the Harry Potter films, Emma Watson's acting experience was limited, consisting only of minor roles in school plays, including Arthur: The Young Years and The Happy Prince. Other school activities included the Daisy Pratt Poetry Competition, in which, at the age of seven, she won first place for her year.
Emma Watson was eleven years old when Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone-titled Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in the United States-was released. She has since appeared in all subsequent Potter films: Chamber of Secrets (2002), Prisoner of Azkaban (2004), and Goblet of Fire (2005), and has finished filming Order of the Phoenix. Despite reports saying she refused to sign a contract to appear in the final two Potter installments, her committment to the final two films was confirmed in late March 2007 by Warner Brothers. At the time she said "I could never let Hermione go--she is my hero! I love her too much and love what playing her has meant to me. I am excited and honoured to be finishing what I started and playing her in all seven of the films." (Daniel Radcliffe's involvement in the last two films had been confirmed earlier that month.) 
At age fifteen, Emma became the youngest person to appear on the cover of Teen Vogue magazine until the appearance of Willa Holland. She also served on a jury, along with Pierce Brosnan, Kenneth Branagh, and Samantha Morton, to select the 2004 teen-aged filmmakers' "First Light" for the Film Award ceremony in Leicester Square in London. She also played Hermione in The Queen's Handbag, a special mini-episode of Harry Potter in celebration of Queen Elizabeth II's 80th birthday.
Watson's first non-Harry Potter role was in the 2007 TV film Ballet Shoes, as Pauline Fossil. She said of the project, "I was all set to go back to school after finishing Harry Potter [and the Order of the Phoenix] but couldn't resist Ballet Shoes. I really loved it". A BBC adaptation of Noel Streatfild's novel of the same name, the film stars Watson as aspiring actress Pauline Fossil, the eldest of three sisters around whom the story revolves. Director Sandra Goldbacher commented, "Emma was perfect for Pauline... She has a piercing, delicate aura that makes you want to gaze and gaze at her". Ballet Shoes was broadcast on Boxing Day in the United Kingdom, to an estimated audience of 5.2 million (22 percent of the viewing total). The film received generally poor critical reviews, and The Times described it as "progress[ing] with little emotional investment, or magic, or dramatic momentum". However, the performances of its cast were generally praised; The Daily Telegraph wrote the film "was certainly well done, not least because it confirmed how good child actors are these days". Watson starred in the animated film The Tale of Despereaux, released in December 2008. She voiced the character of Princess Pea in the film, a children's comedy which also starred Matthew Broderick and Tracey Ullman. | VITAL STATS | | Eye color: Dark Brown | | Height: 5'5 or 5'6 | | Nickname(s):Em, One-Take Watson 9because she usually gets her scenes done in one take) | | Notable feature(s): Won AIM's best actress | | Education: Emma attended The Dragon School an independent preparatory school until June 2003 when she moved to Headington School an all-girl Private school | | Family:Her parents are Jacqueline Luesby and Chris Watson (divorce), brother Alex (From both parents), sisters Nina, Lucy and Toby (dad's side), And two cats Domino and Bubbles. | | Resides in: Oxfordshire, England | | Religious affiliations:none | | Political affiliation: | | Personal interests/hobbies:Field Hockey, Tennis,Rounders, table Tennis, NetBall, Art, and Dancing. | | Charities/Causes: WTT(Wild Trout Trust) | | Other:When she has time, Emma likes to sing and spend time with her friends.
