'Potter' stalker confronts Emma Watson at school


'Potter' stalker confronts Emma Watson at school

Posted by ohnoufo8mycow 1006 days ago
An obsessed Harry Potter fan has been questioned by police after reportedly sneaking into Emma Watson's school and confronting the young actress.

The 16-year-old starlet, who has played Hermione Granger in all five Potter films so far, was appointed a private bodyguard as officers warned the stalker off campus.

The man — aged in his 20s — followed Watson into some of the open lectures she attends, The Sun reports.
The man was an admirer who was over-zealous," a source told the magazine. "He found out there were some open lectures at the school and attended them."

"He left Emma alarmed when he approached her and started talking to her about the Potter films."

"The school was informed and so were Emma's parents. The decision was made to call in the police as the man was not known to her."

"A minder was also hired to be with her."

"The police spoke to the man and he was warned off in no uncertain terms. There have been further incidents since they spoke to him."

    It's really sad that people can't understand you don't assault actresses. I would hope that Emma is taking this very seriously. Many Actresses / singers have had to deal with unsavory actions by fans. Let's hope that this one isn't going to end up sad.

    Obviously it is a big deal. I mean she's what..like 16 17 years old? & a 20 year old man comes up to her annoying her with questions about the Harry Potter film, wouldn't you want that person to leave you alone if it was you in her spot? Maybe his intentions weren't to kidnap/rape/kill her or what not, but what if those were his intentions? Wouldn't you take those precautions to keep yourself safe? Same goes for any famous actor/actress. And as for the SEXUAL harassment, yeah it wasn't SEXUAL harassment, but stalking is still considered harassment. Don't believe me, google that shit. Famous or not, every person is intitled to their privacy. That man needs a reality check, it's just a god damn movie.

    Good thing they stopped him before he had a chance to do something seriously dangerous to her.Something like this is a danger for all of us, and worse for an actor. Just because they are in the public eye does not mean they have less rights as we do to privacy and to feel safe.

  • Big Deal? The girl is a teenager. A MAN came to her SCHOOL! He had no business going to the school. I have a school aged girl, and it doesn't make me comfrtable that just anyone off the street can go in a school and attend lectures and harass people.

    If you see a celebrity out in public, walking down the street in a store, and want to say hey, its annoying but not as bad, or go to public function they are appearing at, but this guy found out where she went to school what classes she was talking and when she would be there. for a teenage girl that is a big deal.

  • totally, emma b safe and don't let it stop u from the dreams u want, protection is best if u still r getting harrassed, but sometimes u neeed to venture on ur own, ur human just like the rest of us, and those who stalk shouldn't it only scares those more who r getting stalked. I know if i was famous and someone stalked me i wouldn't want to b in film no more either. It's so sad that u said no though, i'll miss u in the next eps, but if u change ur mind, which i hope u do i'll see u act in ur next mov.
