Today we have a new photo and information about JK Rowling’s appearance on Oprah, which will be shown on Friday, October 1st. In the following quote, she talks about the U.S. book tour for Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, and the enormous pressure she felt.
There was this enormous Barnes & Noble, and I thought, oh my God. And the queue snaked up the street, up the Barnes & Noble, up through four floors and they took me in the back entrance. They opened the door and they screamed. They screamed….That’s a real stand-out moment for me. I knew it was getting big in that there was press attention and so on, but at that point, that for me…was when it felt ‘Beatle-esque.
You ask about the pressure. At that point, I kept saying to people, yeah I’m coping…but the truth was there were times when I was barely hanging on by a thread.
Thanks SS!

The Arts Desk has a brand new interview with Dumbledore actor Michael Gambon where he discusses his career and mentions Harry Potter briefly.
Is Harry Potter a life sentence? No I like Harry Potter. I died in the sixth one.
How did you find out that you died? Erm, I think I read it in the paper. I read I’d died. It was such a shock. I thought, Jesus Christ.
Have you read the books? I just read the scripts. I know people read the whole book but then you get cross about what’s missing. A lot of actors get upset that their parts are a bit smaller.
To what extent did you have to inherit Richard Harris’s performance? No one ever spoke to me about it. Not a word. On the first film I did which was directed by Alfonso Cuaron I walked in there and I’m naturally Irish and my first accent is Irish, I will speak Irish with my parents, and I played just a slight touch of Trinity College Dublin. That light lilt. I did that and Alfonso said, “What’s the accent here?” I said, “Irish.” He said, “That’s OK.” And no one’s ever mentioned it. I’m a little bit more camp, I think, a bit lighter. A bit more ethereal.
