Hard at work for the second straight day, Emma Watson stepped out to film a new advertising campaign for Lancome in Paris, France on Tuesday (March 15).
The "Harry Potter" actress, who was just unveiled as the new face of the beauty brand, was given the star treatment as she was helped from her trailer by a doting male assistant.
Looking Parisian chic in lace shorts, a white shirt and black tie, Emma's new ad spot for her employer is being shot by the renowned photographer Mario Testino in various locales throughout the French capital city.
Prior to her official appointment to the Lancome gig, Miss Watson teasingly tweeted, "It starts with an L and ends with an E. I’m sure you have guessed the new face of Lancôme is me!"
Quickly getting to work upon being officially named as the brand's new face, Emma Watson was busy shooting ads for Lancome in Paris, France on Monday evening (March 14).
The "Harry Potter" hottie kept herself hydrated with a bottled water as she interacted with famed photographer Mario Testino during the City of Lights photo session.
Breaking the news of Emma's appointment earlier in the day, Youcef Nabi, Lancome International honcho, told press, “Thanks to her charm, romanticism and her incredible modernity, Emma Watson has become the icon of her generation.”
He continued, “We are delighted by this new collaboration with Emma, who brings a fresh spirit to Lancome.”
Meanwhile, Miss Watson had previously hinted that she was working with Lancome via Twitter, as she wrote: "A new venture is starting - what can it be? Follow my clues and you will see... It starts with an L and ends with an E. I’m sure you have guessed the new face of Lancôme is me!"
Emma Watson shared on her website that she’s taking some time off from Brown University due to her upcoming crazy schedule for “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II” and a few other projects she’s lining up.
“As you know, I love Brown and I love studying pretty much more than anything. But recently I’ve had so much to juggle that being a student AND fulfilling my other commitments has become a little impossible. I’ve decided to take a bit of time off to completely finish my work on Harry Potter (the last one comes out this summer) and to focus on my other professional and acting projects. I will still be working towards my degree … it’s just going to take me a semester or two longer than I thought : ). Hope you are all well! Thank you for all your continuing support. Emma xx.”
I’m sure it was a tough decision for her, as she’s often talked about how much she has loved the college experience, but I’m sure the Harry Potter agenda is going to be INSANE. It’s hectic enough for Emma, Daniel Radcliffe, and Rupert Grint when a new movie is about to be released, but considering the fact that this is the LAST film, I’m sure it’ll be 200x more demanding time-wise. I can’t wait to see her first post-Harry project! She has a part in the upcoming “My Summer With Marilyn” and is signed on for “Perks of Being a Wallflower“, as well.

Emma Watson — who hot fame after starring in Harry Potter — says that she wants to grow her hair back like the way before she cut off her hair last year.
“I am trying to grow it but it’s slow, it’s taking a while obviously, If I want to keep acting then it’s more flexible for me to have it longer for different roles, it’s quite a specific cut. I’m kind of looking forward to getting to a cute little bob stage.” ” she said.
Emma Watson — who has earned millions playing Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movie franchise — recently admitted she hasn’t got a clue how she wants to spend her money.

“I bought a laptop, and a Toyota Prius when I passed my driving test, but that’s the most expensive things I’ve spent my money on outside my education.”
Emma Watson thinks it’s funny when people recognize her on the London Underground.
“The funny thing is people look at me and go, ‘Is that the girl from Harry Potter?’ And then they shake their heads and say: ‘No, it can’t be, she’s on public transport.’ And I’m sat there secretly thinking: ‘Ha Ha that’s funny’,” she said.
