J. K. Rowling Goes Fashionably Slytherin At Bafta Awards

Feb 13, 2011 23:55

I don't usually do two JKR posts in a row, but JKR's fashion statement at the Bafta's tonight is too good to pass up. Plus I've been insulted for being "too Slytherin" several times this week, so to see JKR proudly wearing faux-snakeskin cheers me up. I wonder if she was wearing the snake shoes and jewelry also? LOL

I will update when I find out ( Read more... )

The dress looked great when she was sitting, but when she stood up, it did nothing for her. It looked matronly, which is hard to accomplish with a python print. Not at all in the same class as her famous serpent sandals.

Hmmmm, all these serpents - Come over to the Slytherin side, Jo. You know you want to. ;D

It's fascinating, isn't it? Actions speak louder than her anti-Slytherin words. LOL

I saw an article from the Bafta awards with a picture of JKR hugging Emma Watson, and all I could think of was that in the HP books no Slytherin-looking woman in a snake dress would ever get away with hugging Hermione. So anti-canon!

And JKR told a reporter that Emmas was "like a daughter" to her, but that wouldn't happen in the books either because no Slytherin could possibly have a Gryffindor child. Isn't that why so many people believe Snape couldn't have cared about Harry at all - he was a Slytherin and Harry was a Gryffindor?

Harry hated Andromeda Tonks on sight because she looked like Bellatrix although her daughter was his friend and a Hufflepuff. *eyeroll*

Here's the pic of JKR and Emma:

Emma looks tired or like she really wants to get away from the lady in the poorly fitting dress...

Emma tweeted that she's tired--big do's three nights in a row.

I'm just grateful JKR's boobs aren't falling out of her dress.

LOL ~ I was thinking the same thing. I think they added extra support and that's why it looks a little bulky on top. ;)

I'm sorry, but the more I look at that dress, the more it reminds of a snake that's been flattened on the freeway by a mac truck. Roadkill.
