Voting has begun for Portrait Magazine‘s Top 30 Under 30 poll and the Harry Potter Cst is on the list! Currently they have 2% of the votes and are in 12th place. Let’s get them to number one because the person or group with the most votes will appear on the December cover! I’m not sure who they are counting as the “Harry Potter Cast” but I assume it would at least be Dan, Emma, Rupert and Tom. I’ve asked for confirmation on who would be included, so if I get that information I’ll update the post. UPDATE: Okay, the list includes: Daniel, Emma, Rupert, Tom, Matthew Lewis, Evanna Lynch, the Phelps Brothers, and Bonnie Wright. There could also be others such as Katie Leung and Alfie Enoch but that will be decided at the end of voting.
The entire Top 30 will be featured in the issue. Voting lasts through November 23, and you can vote as often as you like. The FAQs for the voting may be read here.
Today the BBC Radio 1 awards took place and three of our favorite stars were there; Tom Felton, Matthew Lewis and Rupert Grint! As I posted last week, Tom and Matt presented the award for Best British Young Sports Star to Tom Daley!
Also, Rupert won the award for Best British Actor! Of the win he said, “I’m just the ginger one in the background, this shouldn’t be happening!” Hopefully videos of the actors will make their way online and I will post them here.
A photo of the three stars with Tom Daley may be seen below thanks to Tom Daley’s Twitter:
This coming Sunday, October 9th, Matthew Lewis, and possibly Tom Felton will be presenting an award at the BBC Radio 1 Teen Awards. The show can be watched online here from 1pm – 5pm London time.
It is unknown at the moment what category(s) will be presented; it is possible that Tom and Matt will present an award together, or they could present separate awards.

This afternoon we have received the official press release and a couple new photos of Matthew Lewis at the Media Opening for Harry Potter: The Exhibition in Sydney, Australia. The full press release, which includes ticket pricing and more, may be read here and a bunch of photos of Matthew at the event may be seen at Matthew-Lewis.com. (The 2 new photos will be added to that album shortly, I’m waiting for them to send back High Resolution versions.)
Yesterday, Harry Potter film star Matthew Lewis, who played Neville Longbottom throughout the film series, was joined by hundreds of Harry Potter fans at the Powerhouse Museum to celebrate Harry Potter: The Exhibition coming to Sydney on 19 November 2011. Providing the audience with a sneak peek of the exhibition, Lewis revealed iconic film props and costumes including the Flying Ford Anglia, the Bloody Baron’s costume and a never-before-seen Death Eater costume.
Tickets are on sale now for Harry Potter: The Exhibition, showing exclusively at the Powerhouse Museum in Sydney, beginning on 19 November 2011 through to 18 March 2012.
Finally I have uploaded the rest of my coverage from the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II London premiere. You can see all the photos in the gallery (do NOT take without linking back to magical-menagerie.com). Watch the videos below:
