Buzz Watch: Emma Watson Bests Daniel Radcliffe as Top Potter Star Online

Authored by Heather Hopkins on July 10, 2007 - 8:58am.

Daniel Radcliffe may play the leading role, but it is Emma Watson that is the most sought out of the young Harry Potter actors online. UK Internet searches for “Emma Watson” have soared in the past two weeks on the back of premieres in cities around the globe. Last week, UK internet searches for "Emma Watson" were three times those for Daniel Radcliffe. UK Internet users are on the hunt for photos and gossip about this latest celebrity, with searches for “Emma Watson photos” and “Emma Watson boyfriend” topping the list of queries related to the star.

UK searches for "Emma Watson" have increased four fold in the past two weeks to overtake Paris Hilton (though I should mention by just one half of one percentage point). Emma Watson was the sixth most searched for celebrity in the UK last week after Chris Benoit, Kate Middleton, Rihanna, David Tennant and Fernando Torres.

And also Daniel has several very well known fan sites, so fans don't have to search much, they already know where to search when they want information. What I mean is that these things are very relative, it doesn't depend on only one thing.
