| | Rupert Grint 'autograph ban' (updated) The Sun ... is reporting that pupils at Richard Hale School in Hertford have been banned from asking Rupert Grint for his autograph. They claim that anyone who does so will receive a detention. Quote:
The Sun's source said: "All the other kids were really proud of him and were asking him about the movies.
"Senior staff held an assembly warning pupils not to bother Rupert. Anybody flaunting the rules gets a lesson long detention."
NOTE: The Sun is a tabloid newspaper so take this with a pinch of salt.
It's also worth mentioning that Rupert finished school last summer; he stated so in an interview with The Guardian newspaper in November last year. Quote:
"I'm a year closer to being able to drive. I've finished school, so don't have any more homework."
Source: The Sun UPDATE: A scan of the article can be viewed here courtesy of RG.net. It appears to be talking about PAST events. |

There are so many bad rumors we need a rubbish bin like JK. We'll call it "The Salt Barrel" cause the "grain of salt" phrase is becoming incredibly common.

LOL I love tabloids. I mean, this story is a bit stupid any ways, isn't it? Not only because Rupert has mentioned he's out of school, but it's 4 movies and several years later and they're just not doing a story on asking for autographs in school? I mean, at least do a 'story' like this when it's early on in their career and people are star struck. :p

The article is talking about past events. I've seen a scan of it (will add in a minute). Why bother printing an article about something that happened well over a year ago? Need to fill space eh? |

"Rupert Grint...our new celebrity"
I'm sure at least one of his teachers was dying to say that

Thats interestinhg...but I probably wouldn't be able to help asking for ONE. It would be worth detention. *Evil Rupert fan*

If that was true, that's total rubbish. I would risk a one or a couple of detentions just to ask.

They even had to mention how much money "they think" he's made from the HP films, and how much his house costs?!
That was sooooo nasty! evil-nasty!!! no respect at all @#$^%&
What if they did the same thing to Dan?! Bcoz I'm sure Dan earned more, he's the lead star! I'm sure Dan and his fans would be very offended too if that happened!
