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:

Best-selling author and fashion writer Derek Blasberg recently discussed Emma Watson in a new video clip featured on Harper’s Bazaar. Derek is the author of Classy, a book teaching young women how to act like ladies. He has a new book coming out on October 13th entitled Very Classy. You can order Classy here and pre-order Very Classy here. I can say, having read the first book, that both of these are definitely worth the buy! Emma is featured in the first book, though there is only a photo and a few sentences, I don’t know if she will be in the new one at all, though based on this video she might be.
He talks about what makes Emma one of the 5 classiest girls he knows (she is in the 20s category) for the first minute of the clip below.
