Michelle Obama ‘more excited’ by Harry Potter film set than meeting the Queen
Harry Potter star Emma Watson has revealed American First Lady Michelle Obama said coming to the set of the film was "more exciting" than meeting the Queen.
Obama and daughters Sasha and Malia visited the set of the final film – Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, which the cast are currently shooting.
Watson, 19, told BBC Radio One: "Michelle Obama came to set recently with her children, which was amazing. Harry Potter is so universally adored but the day I really realised that was when she came to set.
"She said it was more exciting than meeting the Queen, which is insane! The children were obviously big fans, they were really inquisitive and asked loads of questions."
Watson, who stars as brainy witch Hermione Granger, recently had to film a kissing scene with co-star Rupert Grint, 20, and she admitted the pair of them were nervous: "It’s awkward for both of us because we are like siblings, we’ve grown up together."
