Personal Quotes

[in response to a reporter asking her whether she always wore pigtails]: I never wear pigtails, I wear plaits.

[Hardest scene]: Neville comes up to me with his toad, Trevor, and says, “Do you want to kiss Trevor goodnight?” Every time he did this I burst into laughter. I was supposed to give him an “I hate you” look, but I couldn’t help myself. It took me about eight takes to get it.

It was unbelievable seeing me as an action figure! In a few months, toddlers all around the country will be biting my head off!

[On kissing her co-stars]: Oh my God, no, no chance, no chance. That’s not in my contract!

My friends are all really nice about my fame, they’re just curious really, they ask lots of questions.

[On how her character, Hermione Granger, has matured]: She’s rock and roll. She’s feisty. Girl power!

[On reporters asking the same questions over and over]: That’s the good thing about them! They all ask exactly the same questions and you can say exactly the same answers! You don’t have to think, you can just stand there like a broken record going LALALA.

[on working with boys]: I like being around mixed company. Dan (Daniel Radcliffe) and Rupert (Rupert Grint) definitely make their fair share of cheeky comments about me being girlie, but it’s all in good fun.

It took me three films to get Hermione in jeans. To get out of the robes with the tights and the itchy jumpers. Whoo-hoo!

I hope my head doesn’t get very big. I’m just going to keep my feet on the ground, stick to friends and family and try and lead a normal life.

I love fashion. I think it’s so important, because it’s how you show yourself to the world.

[On being a known actress]: Most people are really nice but some stare, like you’re some kind of zoo exhibit and not a real person with real feelings. Even when you take away all the glamour and attention and premieres and everything, it still comes down to the fact that I’m acting.

Hermione uses all these big long tongue twister words, I don’t know what she’s going on about half the time!

I could be 100 years old and in my rocker, but i’ll still be very proud that I was part of the Harry Potter films.

[On her co-stars Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint, who play Harry and Ron]: More than just friends, they’ve become like brothers. Or sisters, I don’t know. In fact, I don’t see them like normal boys. I mean that I cannot imagine me going out with one of them. For me, they are like my best friends. I can laugh and talk about everything with them without any taboo. I really like them a lot.

[On other roles]: Now that I’ve played the snotty, bossy, posh Hermione Granger, I’d like to play some American high school girl. I want to play something totally different. I want to play every kind of character and every point of view, but I’m probably going to be playing Hermione for a while.

[If she'd sooner have a great Hollywood career or a great marriage]: Hmmmmm… Can’t I have both? But if I would really have to choose, then I’d pick a great marriage. I think it would be amazing if I would get to play beautiful parts and win Oscars, but that would all mean nothing if my parents and friends weren’t there with me. What is success when you don’t have anybody to love? No, I’d rather be happily married.

[On watching the earlier movies]: It’s like baby photos… I look like a chipmunk!

I get sent Bibles. I have a collection of about 20 in my room. People think I need to be guided.

Personal Quotes

After being cast as Harry Potter: “I think I’m a tiny bit like Harry ‘cos I’d like to have an owl. Yeah, that’s the tiny bit, actually.”

I don’t know. People tell me I look mournful. They say, “Cheer up, Dan, it’s not that bad!” Sometimes I just look into space, which freaks people out. If I was ever required to do anything other than look haunted, I could. I’m a happy person. Though I don’t, like, dot my “I’s” with hearts or anything – that would be too happy.

I’m not much of a cake person.

But I don’t think it’s going to happen. I don’t think I’ll do all of them – I’ll probably get too spotty or too tall or I’ll shrink or something.

“Absolutely. 100 percent.” [on believing in magic]

I was in the bath at the time, and my dad came running in and said, ‘Guess who they want to play Harry Potter!?’ and I started to cry. It was probably the best moment of my life.

I’m not clumsy, I’m just accident prone.

Upon seeing the movie: “I’m a bit nervous about whether people will like it, but I’ve seen it, and I’m sure they will. It’s really good – it’s quite scary, it’s quite emotional. Even I cried and I don’t cry easily! I cried at the end credits when my name came up, and I was, like, Oh my God! I can’t believe that’s my name! I’ve met so many people since we started filming and it’s been wonderful. I’ve progressed so far and changed so much since the beginning. It’s been like a real journey.”

On considering himself as a heartthrob: “Personally I can’t see it, but if other people can, fine. Cool!”

I would consider doing any part as long as the script is good and the film has an interesting director.

“I like them, but it’s hard to concentrate when the bats fly about, and they pee while they fly.” [about the bats on the set]

I’ve never been one of the cool people at school, but then again, I don’t get the people who are cool. It’s not that I don’t like them, it’s just that they don’t interest me.

“Too many little numbers on one page!” – about math

Stage is much more intimidating than going before the cameras, because you can really screw up, and can’t do a retake.

When I go back to school everyone asks a lot of questions. Then, after about a week, when I’ve answered everything, we get back to normal.

It’s too far down the road to decide about a fifth movie. I’m still the same age Harry is, and I haven’t actually grown that much.

Fans are really important for me. And if they take pains to write me, it’s the minimum that I answer myself.

I think I’m highly normal. I’m attending school after acting, I’m going out with friends, going to the cinema – I’m just doing everything a normal teenager does. People think I can’t leave the house without being in a crowd of fans – but that’s not true. I’m able to do more things than people might think.

I’m thrilled of the acceptance I get abroad. The people are so hearty, warm and grateful and I feel privileged having seen so many countries and some of the greatest monuments.

When I get into trouble at school I’d like to take an invisibility cloak, drape it over me and sneak out the door. Or I’d like to have a 3-headed-dog because then no one would argue with me.

I played a trick on the make-up department where I put a fake blood capsule in my mouth, pretended to trip on the stairs and let the blood come out of my mouth. They really fell for it, then they chased after me with a water pistol.

Everyone on the set has a mobile phone, and I found by pushing a few buttons, they could be programmed into different languages. I fixed Robbie’s (Coltrane) to speak in Turkish.

I don’t understand girls, but I’m slowly learning.

[on saying that he'll do all of the Harry Potter movies] “Ultimately it comes down to whether we’re still enjoying it. If we are then I think we would be sort of stupid not to do them. As long as I’m doing other stuff around the same time, I think it’ll be fine. Also, I sort of try to read the books when they come out impartially and not make up my mind, but the fact is when I was reading the sixth, Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince, there were bits in there where I was going, ‘God, I would love to do that because it’s so good.’”

(on whether he is religious) “I’m not a religious person. My mom was of Jewish blood and my dad was Protestant… I’m very interested in religion as something to study, but I’m not a religious person in the slightest.”

I didn’t look at the nudity and go, oh great. But it’s the same as doing a role with an accent or a particular affectation. You look at the character first. Lots of the actors that I’ve admired have at one stage or another taken their kit off. It’s a rite of passage. That iconic scene is the physical and emotional climax of the play. So if I do that with pants on, it would be crap.

I feel OK about my body. Not totally, of course, no one my age does … but I’ve gone to the gym to make sure. And many of the actors I admire, like Gary Oldman, have gone naked.

People will always remember Harry, but I think if I work hard enough other characters will stick in their minds as well.

[About the "Equus" paparazzi]: They were outside the theatre every single night, but we came up with a cunning ruse. I would wear the same outfit every time – a different T-shirt underneath, but I’d wear the same jacket and zip it up so they couldn’t see what I was wearing underneath, and the same hat. So they could take pictures for six months, but it would look like the same day, so they (photos) became unpublishable. Which was hilarious, because there’s nothing better than seeing paparazzi getting really frustrated.

What everybody would love to see is me having ditched school and then just going wild. That’s what I’m determined not to give them.

It’s not so much that they don’t want me to grow up. It’s that they’re annoyed that I’m growing up adjusted. They’d much rather I was growing up and going wild and crashing cars.

I’m lucky enough to have a job that I love, and a relatively down-to-earth life.

(On being bullied in school) Some people did get very aggressive. People say it was just jealousy, but I don’t think it is jealousy. I think it’s just ‘We can have a crack at the kid who plays Harry Potter.’ As Eddie Izzard says, these people always hang about in fives, because people these have a fifth of a personality each.

JAKARTA – Tak hanya Agnes Monica yang berniat go international. Rossa pun berniat menjajalnya. Rossa punya taktik untuk menggapainya. Dia membuka jalan dengan menguasai pasar musik Malaysia.

“Untuk Go international, saya mulai dari skala kecil dulu. Dari Malaysia, Brunei Darussalam dan Singapura. Setiap tiga bulan sekali saya ke sana,” kata Rossa, di Jakarta, belum lama ini.

Rossa membuktikan ucapannya itu. Pada 1 Mei 2009, istri Yoyok ‘Padi’ ini diundang ke Malaysia untuk menghadiri acara Anugerah Muzik Malaysia.

Reebonz: Situs Jual Beli Barang Mewah

JAKARTA – Konsumen tidak perlu lagi merogoh koceknya dalam-dalam untuk membeli produk mewah kelas atas.

Berpegang pada prinsip ‘Kemewahan Yang Dapat Anda Miliki’ , Reebonz (dieja Ri bens), sebuah website yang beroperasi di beberapa negara Asia mengizinkan konsumen untuk membeli produk dari barang termuka dengan diskon yang menakjubkan.

Diluncurkan pada awal bulan Maret, Reebonz memberikan diskon yang besar kepada anggotanya, dimulai tiga puluh persen sampai empat puluh persen pada kegiatan penjualan online tertentu. Kegiatan penjualan biasanya terbatas 2 sampai 3 hari, dimana merek mewah tertentu dijual hanya untuk anggota, dengan keanggotaan terbatas hanya bagi yang memiliki undangan.

“Kebanyakan dari anggota kami menyukai merek dan produk yang kami jual, dan apabila mereka suka dengan apa yang mereka lihat, mereka dapat mengundang teman-temannya untuk menjadi anggota dan diberikan Reebonz credit dengan melakukan hal tersebut,” Kata Daniel Lim, Revolutionist dari Reebonz.

Pada bulan Maret kemarin saja, Reebonz telah sukses mengadakan kegiatan-kegiatan, dengan 9 merek mewah, termasuk alldressup, Miu Miu, Givenchy, Roberto Cavalli, Gucci, La Perla, Etro, dan Skagen.

Ditawarkan khusus di Reebonz melalui kerjasama, kegiatan penjualan ini adalah hal pertama dari sekian banyak kegiatan yang dapat konsumen saksikan, seiring dengan perluasan kerjasama Reebonz dengan mitra-mitra industri mode mewah.

Dengan pertumbuhan anggota yang tinggi, Reebonz akan memperluas keberadaannya di beberapa negara di Asia Pasifik, dengan pembicaraan yang sedang berlangsung saat ini di Hong Kong dan Australia. Selain perluasan geografis, Reebonz juga akan memperluas lini, dengan menyediakan produk untuk pria dan anak-anak dalam beberapa bulan mendatang.

Pada saat Reebonz mulai membentangkan bisnis retail online di kawasan Asia Pasifik, mereka awalnya merasa takut karena konsumen ragu dengan konsep baru di kawasan ini. Namun, berbeda dengan kekhawatiran awal, ternyata lebih banyak konsumen yang menerima konsep ‘kegiatan penjualan eksklusif’.

Benjamin Han, salah satu pendiri Reebonz menyatakan bahwa konsumen merasa sangat senang, dan mengatakan bahwa ide eksklusivitas dan periode penjualan terbatas, “hanya bertujuan menjaga poin utama pembelian barang-barang mewah, eksklusivitasnya”

“Di samping menawarkan barang mewah dengan harga yang lebih murah, kami juga mempertimbangkan seksama saran dari konsumen, untuk melihat merek dan produk yang diharapkan pada saat penjualan, yang membuat penjualan kami dapat mengikuti keinginan mereka dan bukan apa yang kami pikir mereka inginkan,” kata Han.

Mengumpulkan saran dari konsumen adalah salah satu cara merek dapat tampil di Reebonz yang dipilih sendiri secara hati-hati.

Dalam beberapa minggu mendatang, anggota Reebonz dapat melihat kontes ‘daftar-keinginan’, dimana pemenang akan dipilih dan diberikan kebebasan untuk memilih produk mewah sesuai keinginannya.

Bagi para pembaca okezone, pihak Reebonz membekali akses masuk ke situs tersebut dengan kode: Okezone. (srn)

Konsumsi Rokok Indikator Kemiskinan Masyarakat Indonesia

Surabaya (ANTARA) – Konsumsi rokok diyakini sebagai salah satu indikator kemiskinan masyarakat Indonesia selama ini, akibatnya perilaku tersebut tidak hanya dapat mengurangi pendapatan, belanja bulanan keluarga, hingga berujung pada kematian.
ADVERTISEMENT

“Saya pernah menemukan kesaksian ada seorang sopir berpenghasilan Rp50 ribu sehari dengan empat anak yang kedua anaknya tidak sekolah dengan alasan biaya. Anehnya, sopir tersebut mampu menghabiskan uang Rp24 ribu per hari untuk membeli tiga pak rokok. Sementara, ia memberi uang belanja kepada istrinya sebesar Rp20 ribu sehari,” kata Peneliti Lembaga Demografi Fakultas Ekonomi Universitas Indonesia, Abdillah Ahsan, di Surabaya, Kamis.

Ia mengakui, hal itu memang fenomena umum yang sering ditemui diantara masyarakat miskin di Indonesia.

“Meski sang kepala rumah tangga memiliki penghasilan terbatas, ia mengonsumsi rokok seperti layaknya kereta api,” katanya.

Menurut dia, merokok berdampak pada berkurangnya pendapatan yang bisa dibelanjakan untuk kepentingan lain seperti makanan yang sehat dan layak, biaya sekolah, dan sebagainya.

“Semisal, seorang kepala keluarga mengonsumsi rokok satu pak seharga Rp5 ribu per hari. Padahal, uang yang terbakar melalui rokok tersebut bisa dibelikan tiga butir telur yang mengandung banyak gizi untuk makan seluruh anaknya,” katanya.

Selain itu, kata dia, secara ilmiah terbukti bahwa merokok menimbulkan banyak masalah kesehatan dan meningkatkan biaya kesehatan yang jumlahnya bisa tiga kali lipat dari cukai rokok.

“Bahkan, lebih dari 70.000 penelitian di Amerika Serikat berhasil membuktikan bahaya merokok bagi kesehatan,” katanya.

Melihat beragam kenyataan itu, ia berharap, pemerintah mengambil sikap tegas. Salah satunya dengan menaikkan harga cukai rokok, melarang secara total iklan rokok, dan memasang peringatan bergambar mengenai bahaya merokok.

“Sekarang, besaran cukai rokok rata-rata baru 38 persen. Padahal, dalam Pasal 5 UU Nomer 39 Tahun 2007, pemerintah boleh mematok cukai hingga 57 persen. Namun, besaran itu ternyata masih rendah dibandingkan patokan cukai luar negeri yang mencapai 65 persen,” katanya.

Kontroversi lain, ia menjelaskan, mengenai usulan pelarangan iklan rokok secara total dengan alasan olahraga dan musik akan mati karena tidak ada sponsor. Bila dibandingkan dengan negara Thailand yang melarang total iklan rokok, apakah sepak bola Indonesia lebih baik dari Thailand karena sebagian besar masyarakatnya masih merokok.

“Meski tanpa iklan rokok, sepak bola Thailand lebih baik dari sepak bola nasional. Begitu halnya dengan musik, di luar negeri musiknya tetap hidup tanpa iklan rokok,” katanya.

Ketua Bidang Penyuluhan dan Pendidikan Lembaga Menanggulangi Masalah Merokok (LM3), Fuad Baradja, menyesalkan, mengapa “political will” Indonesia lemah terhadap penanggulangan rokok. “Padahal, saat ini sudah ada sekitar 164 negara di dunia yang memiliki payung hukum terhadap hal itu,” katanya.

Sependapat dengan Ahsan, aktivis yang sudah berhenti merokok sejak tahun 1991 itu, menyarankan, agar cukai rokok dinaikkan sehingga harga rokok akan terkerek naik. Melalui kenaikan cukai itu, angka perokok yang khususnya dari rumah tangga termiskin akan berkurang.

“Jika hal itu sukses, bukan tidak mungkin jumlah perokok yang berasal dari keluarga terkaya juga turun. Akibatnya, bangsa ini akan terbebas dari rokok yang jelas merugikan diri sendiri dan orang tercinta di sekitar mereka,” katanya.

Kebiasaan merokok, menurut dia, memang dinilai menyenangkan oleh sebagian orang ini, tetapi justru memberi dampak negatif.

“Apalagi, terdapat sekitar 4.000 zat kimia dalam sebatang rokok yang menjadi sumber penyakit ataupun memperparah penyakit yang diderita seseorang,” katanya.
