Emma Watson’s Harvard Fiasco
While they’re known for their academic prowess, even Harvard students can stir up some drama.
The students of the school were caught after pulling a prank in which they stalked Harry Potter star Emma Watson at a football game between their school and hers, Brown University.
The 19-year-old was in Cambridge Massachusets to cheer for her team, but had to be whisked by security guards to keep stalkers and fans away.
The ones that started the problems were students who worked at Harvard Voice magazine. “We will be Live-Tweetin’ the game and possibly stalking Emma Watson, so keep your eyes peeled for that, too!” the magazine’s Twitter feed read.
Tweets that followed included:
“Let’s go Hermione! Lolz.”
“In enemy territory. Lookin for a certain witch.”
And: “WATSON FOUND. i repeat WATSON FOUND.”
The magazine pursued by posting photographs of Watson on the Web site and called it a “success” when referring to hunting the witch down.
Freshman Watson was a little shaken up over the stunt. “Anybody can do anything unfeelingly to anybody in this day and age, especially if they feel imbued with entitlement from membership in Harvard College,” one person wrote.
In response to the complaints, the magazine responded: “There seems to be much ado about nothing over this photo and liveblog. Understand that these live tweets were made to be intentionally outrageous and overblown.”
