Style Hollywood Actress - Emma watson 1
Emma watson - Famous for playing the role of Hermione Granger in all seven adaptations of the "Harry Potter" film series, actress Emma Watson was one of those rare actresses who enjoyed a balanced, normal life despite being one of the most recognized and highest-earning stars of the films. Her meteoric rise to fame was nothing short of magical. With virtually no professional acting experience, the nine-year-old Watson was selected to co-star in "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" (2001) and was propelled into international stardom with her very first film. Her portrayal of the bossy, miss-know-it-all Hermione was pitch perfect, so it was no surprise when she was recast alongside Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint in subsequent installments. In her late teens, Watson showed her fans a more stylish, sophisticated side.Style Hollywood Actress - Emma watson 2
Emma watson - She became a regular at fashion shows, befriended legendary fashion icons like Karl Lagerfeld and often arrived at red carpet events swathed in haute couture. The fashion house Burberry took notice of the budding fashionista and signed Watson to be the new face of the brand in 2009. With a coveted fashion contract under her belt and worldwide acclaim as one of Harry's brainy sidekicks, the multi-dimensional actress successfully made her way into cinematic history.Style Hollywood Actress - Emma watson 3
Emma watson - Born on April 15, 1990 in Paris, France, Watson was raised by her father, Chris, and her mother, Jacqueline, both of whom were attorneys. Living in the City of Lights until she was five, Watson moved with her mother and younger brother, Alex, to Oxfordshire, England after her parents divorced. She first expressed an interest in acting when she was six, which led to studying song, dance, and theatre at the Oxford branch of Stagecoach Theatre Arts. She attended The Dragon School, a renowned prep school in England, and moved on to Headington School, a private all-girls school.Style Hollywood Actress - Emma watson 4
Emma watson - She took the lead role in several school plays, including "Arthur: The Young Years and The Happy Prince" (2000). Meanwhile, auditions for "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone," the adaptation of J.K. Rowling's popular fantasy-adventure novel, began the previous year. Casting agents discovered Watson through her Oxford theater teacher and asked the budding thespian to audition for Hermione. After eight callbacks, Watson earned Rowling's approval atop one of the most coveted roles in history.Style Hollywood Actress - Emma watson 5
Emma watson - "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone," which followed the travails of young Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) and his transition into the world of magic at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, became an instant blockbuster, breaking opening day sales records and was the highest-grossing film that year. Watson, like her co-stars, received critical acclaim for her earnest performance as the Muggle-born, bookish Hermione. Starring again as Hermione in "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" (2002), critics singled her out above co-stars Radcliffe and Grint, giving her kudos for an admirable performance. In 2004, "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" - which veered into darker territory than its predecessors - hit theaters. Watson was appreciative of her character growing into a more assertive role in the series and expressed her continued excitement for playing the character in numerous interviews. In the next installment, "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" (2005), Watson's performance reached new milestones. The young actress reportedly loved all the arguing between the three teen co-stars, which she felt were more true to character. Meanwhile, the Potter phenomenon even caught the eye of British royalty - Watson appeared as Hermione in a Potter spin-off called "The Queen's Handbag" (2006), a special mini-episode celebrating the 80th birthday of Queen Elizabeth II.Style Hollywood Actress - Emma watson 6
Emma watson - The fifth adaptation of the Potter franchise, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" (2007) was another mega-hit, setting an opening weekend gross of almost $333 million worldwide. Watson's star kept shining brighter - in the same year, she and fellow wizards Radcliffe and Grint left imprints of their hands, feet and wands in front of Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood. In spite of the financial success of "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," all three teen stars expressed hesitation in continuing their roles for the final two adaptations. The media speculated that she played hard-to-get in an attempt to increase her paycheck, rumored to be in the $4 million-a picture-range. Watson quickly explained that she hesitated because signing on for two more films represented another four-year commitment on her part. She eventually signed for the role after conceding that she loved Hermione's character so much that she couldn't bear someone else playing it.Style Hollywood Actress - Emma watson 7
Emma watson - Like many child superstars, Watson grew up on the film set and under the scrutinizing glare of the media spotlight. But unlike many of her contemporaries who became infamous for partying, drinking, and drug use, Watson managed to keep her life balanced and private. She credited strong family ties for keeping her grounded, as well as the support she received from her co-stars Radcliffe and Grint, both of whom she said had grown to be like her siblings. More notably, she shared a love of learning with her on-screen alter ego. She was a serious student, maintaining top grades while filming the Potter series. In the fall of 2009, Watson headed off to study at Columbia University in New York City.Style Hollywood Actress - Emma watson 8
Emma watson - As the film series progressed, so did Watson's fashion sense. Watson ditched her tweeds in favor of more glamorous get-ups from high-end designer lines like Chanel, Viviene Westwood and Marc Jacobs. She was photographed wearing Chanel to numerous red-carpet events and movie premieres, which sparked a rumor that she was deemed to be the new face of the famed brand, replacing actress Keira Knightley.Alas, the Chanel deal never materialized. But Watson did become the new spokesperson for British fashion house Burberry. In 2009, she modeled Burberry's signature trench coat and other accessories in the brand's autumn collection. In between photo shoots, filming and college, the young glamour maven found time to design a clothing line for teens that benefited UNICEF.Style Hollywood Actress - Emma watson 9
Emma watson - Watson took on other roles in lesser known ventures when she wasn't filming Potter. She starred as the voice of Princess Pea in the animated feature "The Tale of Despereaux" (2008), which starred Dustin Hoffman, Sigourney Weaver, and Matthew Broderick. She also appeared in the critically acclaimed television adaptation of the novel "Ballet Shoes" (2007), where she played one of three sisters who struggle to follow their dreams. Watson reprised her role as Hermione in the sixth installment of the series, "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" (2009), while filming began on the final adaptation of the beloved series "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" that same year.

Style Hollywood Actress - Kate Moss 1
Kate Moss - Despite being only 5’7” on a good day, Kate Moss exploded into the ultra exclusive supermodel arena in 1992, landing a provocative Calvin Klein campaign which often paired her with Mark Wahlberg (at the time “Marky Mark” of the hip-hop group, Marky-Mark and the Funky Bunch) and ushering in a whole new image in the fashion industry known as the “waif look.” Defined by sunken eyes, jutting collar bones topping an emaciated frame, and melancholic facial expressions, Moss embodied a new era of advertising that played to the paradox of lost innocence, extreme vulnerability, and the allure of youthful sexuality. The term “heroine chic” arose from Moss’ popularized look and could be found in everything from the music videos of Guns N’ Roses to the pages of Vogue.Style Hollywood Actress - Kate Moss 2
Kate Moss - Kate Moss was born Katherine Moss Addiscombe in the London Borough of Croydon, England on Jan. 16, 1974. At age 14, she was discovered at JFK Airport by an employee of the British wing of the Storm Agency while she was returning from a Caribbean holiday with her mother. Moss struggled through school while doing small modeling jobs as a teen until she landed the cover of The Face’s 1990 “Summer of Love” issue, quickly followed by her notorious Calvin Klein debut.Style Hollywood Actress - Kate Moss 3
Kate Moss - Moss became a lightening rod of controversy for portraying what critics cited as an unhealthy image of beauty that promoted eating disorders and drug use. Although notoriously self-effacing and rarely one to give interviews, Moss and her personal life became equally as controversial as her photographs. From her famous lovers (such fiancĂ© Johnny Depp), to the ubiquitous rumors of her drug-laden, rock-and-roll lifestyle, Moss remained the darling paramour of the fashion world throughout the 1990s, becoming a spokesmodel for such labels as Chanel, Banana Republic, Versace, Yves Saint-Laurent, Gucci, Narciso Rodriguez, Louis Vuitton, Celine, and Burberry. Her nude “Obsession” fragrance ads proved so popular that in 1995, she received the "Fashion Personality of the Year" award and later in 1996, won "Model of the Year" at the VH1 Fashion Awards. In 1997, Kate: The Kate Moss Book was published, a compilation of self-chosen photographs to represent her career in front of the camera.Style Hollywood Actress - Kate Moss 4
Kate Moss - The first time the wheels fell off for Moss was soon after her break-up with Johnny Depp in 1998, when she checked herself into London’s Priory clinic, citing “exhaustion.” Although her friends attributed her stay to depression via a failed engagement, insiders alleged the model was actually in rehab, which she later admitted, conceding she had been drinking and getting high before taking the catwalk for years, but denied using harder substances like cocaine.Style Hollywood Actress - Kate Moss 5
Kate Moss - As the millennium ended and the golden age of the supermodel faded back to more familiar “human and real” actresses representing brands, Moss was the lone vestige of her peers to flourish and gain steam. Her popularity boomed through her uncanny ability to create a seemingly infinite number of images for different brands, vanquishing her trademark waif with a new trademark of adaptability. At the age of 30 she was declared the sexiest woman of all time according to a poll conducted by men's magazine Arena to mark its 150th issue. In February 2005, a nude portrait of a pregnant Moss by Lucian Freud sold for £3.93 million.Style Hollywood Actress - Kate Moss 6
Kate Moss - Perhaps it was her earlier denial of hard-drug use that in part created the Kate Moss cocaine train wreck in the fall of 2005 – when her entire career careened off the tracks. On Sept. 5, just two weeks before her daughter Lila’s third birthday (from former boyfriend and “Dazed & Confused” editor Jefferson Hack), London’s Daily Mirror ran a front pager with Moss pictured on the cover clearly doing cocaine. The clandestine photographs showed the fashion icon sporting knee-high leather boots and disheveled hair while cutting a line of cocaine on a CD jewel box. The inset picture showed her snorting a line of the narcotic through a rolled, £5 note. The Mirror’s embossed headline read: “Cocaine Kate: Supermodel Kate Moss snorts line after line.” A videotape accompanied the photos of the debauched evening, which took place at a West London recording studio where her boyfriend Pete Doherty’s band Babyshambles was recording. Within hours, websites were rife with images of her bacchanal antics. All the publicity led London’s Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Ian Blair to launch an official inquiry, putting forth his reasoning behind the probe as to limit “the impact of this kind of behavior on impressionable young people.” So experienced with drugs was Moss, that Babyshambles’ band manager James Mullord claimed she showed him how to use a tampon cover to roll a joint.Style Hollywood Actress - Kate Moss 7
Kate Moss - Thus began an open season on Kate Moss-cum-drug addict and her free-for-all into shame, including the mass exodus of marquis contracts with Chanel, Burburry, and Swedish-owned H&M clothing (which was at the time premiering a line designed by Moss’ close friend Stella McCartney). Directly on the heels of her drug photos, Naomi Campbell’s personal assistant Rebecca White (who had known Moss since the late 90s), unleashed salacious stories of Moss seducing her, supermodel lesbian orgies instigated by Moss, and drug-fueled tirades. White gave interviews claiming, "She is naturally a very sexually open person. But, when she's doing cocaine, she becomes even more so and will fall into bed with whoever she chooses. Women as well as men."Style Hollywood Actress - Kate Moss 8
Kate Moss - Moss entered rehab soon thereafter, issuing the statement: "I take full responsibility for my actions. I also accept that there are various personal issues that I need to address and have started taking the difficult, yet necessary, steps to resolve them," Moss said. "I want to apologize to all of the people I have let down because of my behavior which has reflected badly on my family, friends, co-workers, business associates and others."Style Hollywood Actress - Kate Moss 9
Kate Moss - In true Moss style, just months after the cocaine scandal broke and despite rumors of her imminent arrest (which never happened since photographs of alleged drug-taking were not admissible evidence in British courts), she staged an amazing comeback, much of which she attributed to a recent conversion to Buddhism. Her annual earnings more than doubled after she left rehab and all her former fashion suitors soon lined up to woo her back into their camps, including Rimmel, Virgin Mobile, Dior, Roberto Cavalli, Longchamp, Stella McCartney, Bvlgari, and David Yurman. The spring of 2006 saw Nikon launch a campaign with Moss as the avatar of “hot,” wearing the same type of black, knee-high boots as she wore in the Daily Mirror photos.
