If you guys remember, last week I posted about Emma Thompson’s book signing at Waterstone’s that was held on Saturday. Photos from the event are now online; you can see a few below.
Rupert Grint will be featured with a “brilliant profile feature” in the next edition of NO Magazine, which will be out this week! It will feature a photoshoot and an interview with the Ron Weasley actor!
Earlier today SnitchSeeker was able to interview Percy Weasley actor Chris Rankin about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows! “Chris talked in depth about playing various aspects of Percy throughout the series, from pompous prefect, to family traitor, and back to redemption (and which he enjoyed portraying the most); and hanging out with fellow Weasley costars Julie Walters, Mark Williams, Rupert Grint, Bonnie Wright, and James and Oliver Phelps.”
In a new research study done by The Co-operative Financial Services (CFS) they found that JK Rowling is the most inspirational entrepreneurial female role-model for young women in the UK.
The Harry Potter author came out top of the survey, ahead of other respected names such as Stella McCartney and TV’s Dragon’s Den star, and successful business-woman, Deborah Meaden.
The research – inspired by International Women’s Day on 8 March – also revealed that 75% believe it is more difficult for women to get ahead in business while more than 80% felt they needed to work harder than men to get ahead.
However, more than 90% felt that positive female role-models will help to pave the way for more young women to reach their full potential.
