Harry Potter Mother Magic at Centre Court Our Mother of Magic, JK Rowling, isn’t a carpet whore. She keeps a very, very low profile, even at her own movie premieres. So it’s exciting when she goes out. And she seems to be really into Wimbledon. She and her husband were seated in the Royal Box By Lainey • Jun 25, 2013 03:55 pm

Harry Potter What is Pottermore? If you’re a Harry Potter nerd, you were likely caught up in it yesterday. If you missed it, click here for a backgrounder. So...what is it? JK Rowling launched the Pottermore site – here (note the Sorting Hat in the URL hee!) – but without much more information... only her By Lainey • Jun 16, 2011 05:06 am
Harry Potter On Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows Part 1 Please note that the following post is heavy on spoilers. Do you re-read them before you see them? I always do. Because I’m a nerd that way, yes, but also because it’s fascinating to see how even the smallest details are interpreted for the screen. I loved for By Lainey • Nov 12, 2010 02:44 am
Girlcrushes The best is generous Love her so f-cking much. There’s a reason why Stephen King, and so many J.K. Rowling fans, took such offence to those early dumbass comparisons between Harry Potter and Twilight. One is gold, the other is ass, and it’s incredibly insulting to Jo’s great talent and By Lainey • Aug 31, 2010 07:32 am

JK Rowling participated in the White House Easter Egg Roll yesterday in Washington where she read to the children from The Philosopher’s Stone.

Girlcrushes Jo at the gala Our heroine JK Rowling attended the Raisa Gorbachev Foundation Party on Saturday held at Hampton Court Palace with her husband looking lovely in blue. We’re now 5 weeks away from the release of the Half Blood Prince film. And it’s been almost 2 years since the Deathly Hallows By Lainey • Jun 08, 2009 09:34 am
Girlcrushes Jo and Mrs O G20 Summit – many demonstrations, major controversy, this is not the place. Let’s stick with something less contentious. There should be no debate about this one. A power women dinner or something this week at 10 Downing Street. Michelle Obama is the guest of honour. Seated beside her… Our Jo. By Lainey • Apr 01, 2009 08:52 am
JK Rowling A Knight created a Wizard Speaking of deranged – Twihards are foaming at the mouth today in defence of their Supreme Leader Stephenie Meyer after Stephen King said she sucks. Heh. King was addressing the Meyer comparisons to JK Rowling (blasphemy!) and explained that Meyer’s success is due to the fact that 12 year old By Lainey • Feb 04, 2009 01:35 am
