Emma Watson makes a boob at Harry Potter premiere
Last updated at 13:28pm on 08.07.09Showing her thigh, knickers and the hint of a left breast in public that's not what we've come to expect from strait-laced know-it-all Hermione Granger.
Possessed dress: Emma Watson was over-exposed as she left Middle Temple
Indeed, the star pupil of Hogwarts would rather join a Death Eater like Lucius Malfoy than dream of baring the flesh.
Revealing: the star showed a lot of leg as she left the premiere
Unfortunately for actress Emma Watson, 19, the combination of blustery wet weather and freeflowing dress led to a few problems on the red carpet last night. Goodness only knows what she was up to lifting her dress to one side as the rain tipped down - but it certainly didn't escape the attention of eagle-eyed photographers nearby.
Later, on the way home in the car from the afterparty at Middle Temple with boyfriend Jay Barrymore, her wayward dress struck again - as if cursed with bad magic.

You all whine and bitch to leave her alone. She's a star dumbass's. This is now and always will be a part of her life and will get MUCH worse over time. She's doing a film with Marilyn manson for crying out loud where she plays a hooker or stripper or something so don't think she's all that innocent people. She's a big girl now and had best be used to this as i'm sure she is. Her fame will grow as she does as will the paparazzi. Get over yourself thinking you're protecting her. Funny thing is, she chose to wear this outfit with NO bra, and a slit all the up the dress in the front, IN LONDON stormy capitol of the world. Ever heard of double sided tape? We all learn thur our mistakes. She will too. Get a life people. Oh, and i'm in love with her dude? Ya, like you have a shot. Just keeping it real.

Leave her alone, its not her fault the weathers bad over there in London and the rubbish coming out of people's mouths saying she did it on purpose is a load of garbage.

I CAN'T BELIEVE EMMA DIDN'T REACT THE DRESS WAS NICE BUT IT WAS NOT PROPERLY HANDLED.I'M A BIG FAN BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS TERRIBLE,,

People will see what they want to see - floozy or victim. Personally, I see a very pretty young woman as portrayed in the unfortunate glare of fame.
That picture, though, would be one of many, the "best" one selected for viewing (according to what is considered "best" for the article). The circumstances of the photo, demonstrating WHY she became exposed as she did, would be seen if the rest of the series of pictures this one was taken from were to be made available.
A picture is an instant in time. Its interpretation is subject to how it is presented.

Sartoriallly challenged maybe, but phew what a scorcher!

For God's sake leave the poor kid alone. Report on something interesting for a change. How would you like it if every time the wind caught your skirt, pictures of your underwear were all over the press? This infantile country, with its obsession with 'Now' magazine and other such mindless crap, makes me sick. And I hate to say it, but it's mostly women - picking holes in other women - who are to blame (although the men who own the media conglomerates are laughing all the way to the bank).

At least she had some knickers on - unlike some 'celebrities' I could mention....!

It was a PR event she was there to be taken pictures of though it must be said this is not the first or last time she has made a boob of it, life of a rock star GF I guess
- Gary, Brentwood
Sigh! Now, I finally understand why Emma to leave London and go to a university in the States! The paparazzi are totally annoying!! Don't they know what privacy is all about? Hopefully, this is will come to an end. It's just so ridiculous man. IGNORE THEM EMMA! (:
- Natalie, Singapore
Poor Ems. They really shouldnt take the pic even more publish it. It is so awful. It's not her fault after all. It's the bad weather. But they talk like Emma doing in on purpose.

Well keeps the growing up children happy making these infantile comments.
- William, Hay~Heath UK
Ajay, that's quite a misinformed comment with a heavy bias towards your own opinion and personal regard of morals, ethics, etc.
Emma probably contributed to the exposure, which many can easily guess, leads to more exposure for Harry Potter at such a light expense. Remember, Emma flashed away with even more private bits revealed last year on her 18th, and has eeked one or two other "oops" moments since then.
Don't blame this on the paparazzi and accuse them of stealing innocence, lol, that's just ridiculous...
London Standard, please keep up the great malfunction coverage!

Bless her....looking GOOD huh ! Beware Harry !

Geez people leave these actors alone just cause they're famous doesn't mean they don't have feelings. It was raining and windy it was an accident. She's 19 so back off. They made this movie for us the fans yet we and the paparazzi attack them, does that make sense to you?
- Jessica, Dallas, USA
It's unbelievable how the paparazzi just take away whatever innocence these people have, and you people don't make it any better with your encouraging comments. I just hope she doesn't take any of this too seriously and just carries on with her life because its bound to get a lot worse.
- Ajay, Sydney, Australia
Jon Vickers, S.C.USA is right. Looks like the lady is growing up fast. Adult parts not far away, I should imagine.

Oh dear hint of a left breast! Does she have a right breast? Hey! She's a big girl now. and we all know how big girls act.
