Harry Potter and the half-drenched stars

Posted by Jane Murphy

 

Damn this British weather! Poor Rupert Grint, Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe got absolutely soaked in a sudden downpour before last night’s Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince premiere in London’s Leicester Square.

But would this country’s finest young stars be put off by a bit of rain? Would they hell! Together with Harry Potter creator and all-round genius JK Rowling, they spent ages signing autographs, posing for pics and chatting to the crowd - some of whom looked like this…

 

Now, this being a blog devoted to celebrity tittle-tattle, duty requires me to inform you that Ms Watson did experience a brief wardrobe malfunction, when her drenched dress flew open to reveal her knickers.

Still, she recovered like a trooper and nothing else was said about it - until The Sun got hold of a telltale picture this morning, that is.

Anyway, despite the inclement weather, there was a huge turnout of stars at yesterday’s screening. Among them? Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver showed up in his sensible wet-weather gear…

 

…which, in my opinion, made him look a little like one of those “living statues” that hang around tourist hotspots.

Unfortunately, the rain played havoc with Helena Bonham-Carter’s hair…

 

At least, I think the rain was to blame. It’s hard to tell with Helena, isn’t it?

Other high-profile film-goers included crisp-botherer Gary Lineker, sweary chef Gordon Ramsay, GMTV’s Lorraine Kelly, actress Maggie Smith, red carpet regular Pixie Geldof and reality stars/models Danielles Bux and Lloyd. Marvellous.

But at least one person managed to escape the bad weather…

 

Yep, Myleene Klass looked as immaculate and fragrant as ever. How annoying!
