Emma Watson to Perform in Free Brown University Play

She may be the highest-paid actress, but this weekend, Emma Watson is acting for free. The 19-year-old Harry Potter star and Brown University student will be performing in a student-run production of Anton Chekhov's play Three Sisters from March 12-15, but don't book your trip to Providence, R.I. just yet.

According to Brown's Production Workshop website, tickets to Three Sisters will be available on March 10 free of charge, but only to students, faculty and staff with valid Brown ID. No ID, no tickets. Take that, paparazzi!

Three Sisters is story of Olga, Masha and Irina Prozorov, who are dissatisfied with their small-town life after moving from the urban environment of Moscow. Emma and 13 other actors are involved in the production, but British star's exact role in the play has yet to be confirmed.

Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe Are Highest-Paid Actors

Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe are two 19-year-olds who make major bank. Vanity Fair named both Harry Potter stars the top earning actor and actress in Hollywood for last year.

Daniel earned a whopping $41 million pay day in 2009. He received $20 million for both Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part I and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part II, plus another million for royalties from older films and other earnings. Emma Watson and Rupert Grint each brought home an estimated $30 million after their $15 million fee for starring in the upcoming two Harry Potter films (click here to check out Rupert's amazing pad). That's more money than even Hollywood A-listers like Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, and Johnny Depp earned.

What do you think about actors making such humongous amounts of money? Do they deserve such huge paychecks?

 

Emma Watson's Leg Airbrushed in Burberry Ad?

Earlier this week, Burberry released gorgeous photos from Emma Watson's new Spring/Summer 2010 ad campaign, but something in this photo is missing -- namely, her leg.

If you look closely, at this shot of the Harry Potter star and her little brother Alex, Emma's lower leg appears to be airbrushed out. Was this a fashion faux pas on Burberry's end?

Many ads and photo spreads are retouched, and celebs like Miley Cyrus are no stranger to altered photos. In fact, Miley even tweeted about her airbrushed image, that is, before she deleted her Twitter account.

Take a second look at Emma's photo. Was it Photoshopped? You be the judge.

Update: Thanks to a JSYK reader, we now know where Emma's leg is. Watch the video after the jump to find out.

 

Emma Watson's New Burberry Ad Campaign

Emma Watson was named the face of Burberry last year, and now the British fashion label's Spring/Summer 2010 ad campaign, featuring the 19-year-old Harry Potter actress, is finally here.

"We've worked again with Emma Watson who has a classic, effortless beauty and is incredibly talented," says Burberry Chief Creative Officer Christopher Bailey. "Alongside Emma we have four British guys; Emma's younger brother Alex Watson (pictured), Matt Gilmour, Max Hurd and George Craig."

Emma also stars in two Burberry videos -- a personal message to fans of the label and a behind-the-scenes look at her ad campaign photo shoot with her little bro.

"They also shoot my brother in the campaign," Emma says. "And he's having such a good time, and he's so psyched."

Emma Watson and Rupert Grint Pal Around on 'Harry Potter' Set

Emma Watson and Rupert Grint took a break on the set of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 to talk about their love for J.K. Rowling's book series. The 19-year-old actress says she's devoured all of the HP books, while her co-star may have taken a little longer to get through them.

"I'm a book purist so...I've read each one of them three or four times each," Emma says.

"I usually read them before we start [filming], but I was quite late reading the last one," Rupert admits.

Emma then gives her Rupert the stink eye until he exclaims, "I did read it! I mean, I left it quite late... I was probably the last one to read it..."

"In the world. Ever," Emma interjects with a laugh. "In the universe." Watch the exchange after the jump, and stay tuned for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 when it arrives in theaters on November 19, 2010.

If you ever wanted to speak directly with Emma Watson, now is your chance.

Emma teamed up with the British clothing company People Tree last fall to create an eco-friendly fashion line that will be available at the end of February.
