Japanese fangirl interviews Harry Potter cast members

[Rushmore]

Found these clips on Japan Probe. The interview with Rupert (Ron) is particularly hilarious/creepy but they're all worth a watch. Enjoy!







Rupert Grint interview



Daniel Radcliffe interview



Emma Watson interview



Bonus vid!



The kids give a message in Japanese to their fans!

Aww she is so excited. Her teeth are insane.



Edit:



Umm...it was cute until she started sniffing her fingers. Good god.

The girl is very cute and very weird. I liked the men's interviews the most because they looked so weirded out, but played along and were a class act.



I laughed at how she gives a hat present to Rupert, a stamp to Daniel (WTF), and Emma got jack. The robe and want presents were nice.

[Ap2000]

Where the fuck did they find her !?



At first it was just a typical over-reacting thing, but then it got really weird...

[Tsuki]

This was absolutely hilarious. I always have to wonder what goes on through the minds of celebrities that meet these "representatives" of Japan's entertainment fan culture. The US has got some weirdos, but our entertainment industry doesn't send them off to meet famous stars typically.



I'm pretty sure Japan does it because it's weird/cute and therefore entertaining, but I don't think that translates too well to other cultures. I mean, cuz, if I had someone touch my eyebrows and then sniff their fingers, I'd be a little freaked out, regardless of the circumstances, haha.

Here's the explanation taken from slashfilm:



"A Japanese comedy television show, Sanma Akashiya’s “Karakuri Terebi”, held a contest last month in which 10,000 of Japan’s biggest Harry Potter fans competed for a chance to travel to the UK and visit the set of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. The show intentionally picked the strangest and most obsessed fan as the winner, a girl named Kana, and surprised her with a chance to meet and interview Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley) and Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter)."



So it's obvious (and hilarious) that they knew exactly who they were sending and why.

Ah, Japan. Intentionally sending your crazies. I love it! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/wub.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':whistling:' /> You have to admit, that was probably a really memorable experience for both Daniel and Rupert (as well as Kana, obviously), and a whole ton better than the usual typical interviews.

[Snowman]

Very Creepy, yet very cute. The Daniel and Emma interviews were taken off from youtube under that users name so I had to find them from some other user. It was quite hilarious indeed.

[sadude]

That was cute and totally not creepy. Had it been a guy, on the other hand, some nice double standards would've come into effect. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ek3run.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':sideways:' />
