Hundreds of fans waited along the red carpet at the Ziegfeld Theater in NYC on July 9th for the stars of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Price to arrive at the movie’s premiere. Here are pictures from a few of those fans and their firsthand reports!
Kim took pictures of Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter), Emma Watson (Hermione Granger), Rupert Grint (Ron Wesley) and Tom Felton (Drako Malfoy). She was also lucky enough to get autographs from Daniel, Rupert, and Emma! (After waiting for about 7 hours!)
Chelsea arrived to the premiere around 5:30 after woork and said, “It was a mob scene, and people apparently camped out the night before just to get a spot at the front of the barricades! Thankfully I am a pretty small person so I was able to sneak my way up to the very front and had a perfect view of all the Harry Potter cast! Emma Watson walked by the barricades and signed autographs and took pictures, she was so sweet! And even more stunning in person! I also saw Alan Rickman (Snape) , Tom Melton (Malfoy) whose date was Mary Kate Olsen, Daniel Radcliffe (Harry), and Rupert Grint, along with a list of other random celebs attending the event. Thanks again for posting about the premiere! Now my summer is complete!”
Charlynne also caught the stars of Harry Potter arriving to the theater. Here is a look at her pictures too!
Thanks to all Kim, Chelsea, and Charlynne for sharing their pics! Finally, here are a couple videos Kim sent along too!
