We may not know any spells on how to magically summon a cake, so we’re just going to have to settle on wishing Emma Watson a bewitching 25^th birthday!

We all now Emma as clever Hermione Granger in Harry Potter, but Emma has really come into her own as an informed, graceful, grounded, well-spoken and passionate advocate for women’s rights that we love, respect and admire. She’s addressed the United Nations, and in doing so, motivated us-men and women alike- to be and do better.

Arguably Emma’s biggest moment of 2014 came in September. Emma was appointed a U.N. Women Goodwill Ambassador. She then delivered an intense speech on ending gender equality throughout the world. Along with U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, Emma helped launch theHeForShe campaign with the goal of including more boys and men in the fight for equality.

Emma also campaigned for #HeForShe at the 2015 World Economic Forum on January 23, 2015. Emma reported the positive initial response to the program, before stressing the need for additional efforts to end gender inequality, once and for all.

You may think you know this powerful young woman, but here are 10 things you didn’t know about our favourite Grazia girl:

1.  Emma Watson was born in Paris. She lived in Paris until the age of five and moved to England following her parents’ divorce.
2.  She wanted to become an actress since she was six years old. Emma had never acted professionally until, at the age of nine, her theatre teacher referred her to the agents looking to cast Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter series. She secured her part after auditioning eight times.
3.  Emma’s first role outside the Harry Potter franchise was the BBC film ‘Ballet Shoes’ in 2007, an adaptation of the novel by the same name. She also lent her voice to the role of Princess Pea in the animated film ‘The Tale of Despereaux’.
4.  Emma Watson is the youngest star to have graced the cover of Teen Vogue at the age of 15.
5.  She graduated from Brown University in the US in English literature on May 25, 2014.
6.  Emma is a cat lover. She has two cats: Bubbles and Domino.
7.  Emma Watson is a certified yoga and meditation instructor.
8.  In 2014, she was appointed as a UN Women Goodwill Ambassador and helped launch the UN Women campaign HeForShe, which calls for men to advocate gender equality.
9.  Emma Watson will mark her singing debut in a live-action adaptation of ‘Beauty and the Beast’ where she will play Belle opposite Dan Stevens, the Beast.
10.  In February 2010, she was named as Hollywood’s highest paid actress, having earned an estimated 19 million pounds in 2009.

8 times out of 10 on a semi cold wintery evening we would all opt to staying at home wrapped in fluffy pjs, watching re-runs of our favourite girly series and sipping slowly on hot coco – but last night we didn’t. And it was fantastic!

With a three course meal curated by a world-class chef, paired with Guatemala produced premium rum, RON ZACAPA, this once in a lifetime experience at Cellar Door at The Westcliff Hotel changed everything.

Mastering the blending, stabilization and maturing process of long aged rum, RON ZACAPA 23, goes beyond your usual ‘rum and coke’ order, and offers those consuming an intricate composition of honeyed butterscotch, spiced oak and raisined fruit that’s an absolute pleasure to drink and enjoy.

Highlights of the evening? Sipping the delicious flavours that make up this rum, and the mystic fusion menu:

Starter: Trio of Cold Starters, Foamy scrambled egg, seared salmon and marinated duck foie gras

Paired with: Ron Zacapa Runs for President

Ron Zacapa Centenario 23 YO Luxury Rum mixed with sweet vermouth, sweet pineapple juice and rich grenadine syrup

Main: Roasted duck breast with nougat crust (Mmm delicious!), Tonka bean flavoured cauliflower mousseline and Ron Zacapa 23 Sauce.

Paired with: Ron Zacapa 23 YO Luxury Rum and French herbal Chartreuse balanced with fresh lime juice and sugar syrup

Dessert: Trio of Desserts – Deconstructed Tiramisu with rum and sautéed pear. Flambeed banana tartlet with salted caramel and walnut tuile. Homemade Malga ice cream with rum and raisin.

Paired with: Ron Zacapa Signature Serve

Last night, 14 April 2015, a vine of Rihanna partying with friends at Coachella went viral. The reason? The 27-year-old singer is rumoured to have been doing cocaine in the video.

Riri took to slamming the allegations in the most Bad Gal Riri way possible, naturally!

Rihanna responded to one user spreading the video on Instagram leaving a comment (on a now deleted Instagram post): “Your lame ass got some f****** nerve!!! Any fool could see that’s a joint im basing with a cigarette! Who snorts tobacco??!! FOH witcho ‘never been to a rodeo so someone squeezing their nose means they’re doing coke’ looking ass!

If you move on over with us to Riri’s Instagram account, you can see that Riri is occupied with something with her fingers. In full on Bad Gal Riri mode, Rihanna posted a throwback snap if her with a can of Coca-Cola, and only the word “petty” to describe it.

We’re #TeamRiri on this one. Take a look at the video and decide for yourself

From being a Spice Girl, to a WAG, to style icon to a fashion designer, Victoria Beckham has become a force to be reckoned with in recent years.

So, today on Vicki’s fabulous 40^th birthday, we’re celebrating her birthday in the most stylish way we know how, by looking back at some of her most iconic looks through the years:

Sometimes, it gets a bit crazy trying to keep up with not only the Kardashians, but all the rich and famous peeps who don’t have their own reality shows.

So, in case you missed out, here are the biggest moments from this week:

SOFIA VERGARA HAS HER OWN SHOW

And in it she has two sisters who look and sound exactly like her! Don’t believe us? Watch for yourself. It’s Brilliant.

BODY LOVE FLOODED OUR SOCIAL MEDIA #GirlPower

This past weekend — in response to photos of singer-songwriter P!nk in a gorgeous black dress at a formal cancer benefit honouring one of her friends— the Internet immediately took to criticizing her for a supposed weight gain. Pink responded by taking to twitter, tweeting:

We didn’t think it could get any better, but then supermodel Chrissy Teigan took to Instagram, posting the following, showing that she has flaws just like the rest of us:

She captioned the snap, “Bruises  from bumping kitchen drawer handles for a week. Stretches say hi!”

THE BEAUTY AND THE BEAST CAST TWEETED THEIR FIRST SELFIE (OR WOULD THAT BE A GROUFIE, WITH SO MANY PEOPLE?)

 Josh Gad (playing Le Fou) posted the pic this week, captioning it “We cant wait for you to be our guest”

KOURTNEY EXPLAINS WHY SHE CHOSE THE NAME ‘REIGN’

With names like Mason and Penelope , Reign seems so out of the ordinary. So what encouraged Kourt and Scott to choose Reign Aston Disick for their baby boy?

“I’m never certain [with names] until they’re born,” the 36-year-old said in a recent interview. But, the KUWTK star revealed that Reign was a name she’d actually considered as a possible name a long time ago.

“I actually had the name on our list with Mason,” she explained. “Then with Penelope, I had it on the list but spelled R-A-I-N.”

And for her third child, which Kourt thought was a “girl in the beginning,” she circled back to Rain as a possibility and started to really like it. “Once I found out I was having a boy, we just changed the spelling again,” she said.

We love a good vaycay and as the temperature starts to drop into autumn, we find ourselves reminiscing about our not too distant summer holiday. Thanks to Rihanna and Selena Gomez, we have been living out our holiday day dreams via their Instagram snaps.  Their pics left us thinking 2 things; 1: how the hell does their hair look this good at the sea and 2: when’s our next holiday?

Who do you think is having a better time?

M-NET Movies Family is on the prowl for an Ambassadoggy

Does your furry best friend have what it takes to be the face of the M-Net Movies Family Channel 105 on DStv? 

We are on the lookout for man, woman and child’s best friend to be the face or Ambassadoggy of the channel as well as receive grand prizes such as flat screen TV’s, Explora decoders and pampering vouchers for the winning doggy.

 To launch the campaign, the channel worked with YouTube extraordinaires – Derick Watts and the Sunday Blues – to create this humorous call for entries.

 The comic duo was more than thrilled to be on board. Gareth Allison from Derick Watts and The Sunday Blues explains, “Being a part of this particular M-NET Movies Family campaign was a no-brainer for us, as both Nic and I are obsessed with our dogs – Shia LeWoof and Michael Puglass, respectively.”

Allison continues, “Sadly, due to contest rules, they aren’t eligible to win the grand title of Ambassadoggy. I’m not looking forward to breaking the news to them; Michael Puglass, in particular is in the midst of a serious tennis ball addiction.”

Competition entries are now open on mnet.dstv.com/ambassadoggy and close on the 30 April 2015. Ambassadoggy owner hopefuls are required to submit a picture or video to the website as part of their entry.

 A panel of dog-loving judges, comprising of TV, radio and online personalities, such as Rob Vember, Vanessa Haywood and Just Curious will then narrow down the entrants to the top 5. The public will then have the opportunity to vote for their favorite dog, and the winner will be selected based on likes and shares.

The grand prizewinner will be announced on the 27 May 2015 and be required to be available for a session with the Puparazzi and to sign pawtographs from the following week.

Last night we were lucky enough to attend the ultimate street party in Juta street, Braamfontein with MRP for the launch of #mrpdenim. To celebrate the campaign they shut down the street and filled it with everything you could possibly need for the best street party of your life.  It was also the opening of the MRP Pop-Up Shop which will run until 26th of May at 70 Juta Street. You can shop the latest denim fits, catch up online with the store’s free WiFi and customize your  denim at the embroidery station, which will run during this store’s opening week.

A highlight, was a performance by 6 SA Music Award winners, Beatenberg. Check out our insta snaps and see for yourself…

IAN SOMMERHOLDER AND NIKKIE REED GOT MARRIED

This is Nikki’s, 26, decond marriage, while this is Ian’s, 36, first. The bride wore a long sleeved white dress with lace detailing whilst the groom looked dapper in a white suit.

TYGA TATTOO’S KYLIES NAME

Here’s a recap on the ongoing Kylie-Tyga-Blac Chyna debacle. Ok, so, over the weekend, Blac Chyna took to Instagram to expose Tyga by posting screenshots of text messages  from Tyga to her saying that he wants to make it work with her and be a family with their son, King Cairo. Ouch.

Tyga, took to twitter posting the following:

What’s more? He got Kylie’s name inked on his arm as well-on Saturday, snaps of his new tattoo (Kylie’s name in cursive on the inside of his arm) surfaced on social media and spread like a wild fire. (Instagrams  and tweets may come and go, but tattoos are forever, we say)

Kylie seems to be taking her man’s side and sub-tweeted that she thought the text messages were ‘fake’.

Hmmmm, we say that where there’s smoke, there’s fire but you will have to stay tuned to GraziaDaily for more updates!

Jozi lovers of wine,unite! It’s wine-o’clock at the Sandton convention center between 7-9 May.

In his brave and emotional interview with Diane Sawyer that aired on Friday, 24 April, in which he opened up about his transition to a woman, Jenner expressed his wishes to be comfortable enough to “have my nail polish on long enough that it actually chips off”. And not only did celebs tweet and Instagram messages of support during the interview, now fans across the world are showing their support for Bruce Jenner in hashtag form.

According to BuzzFeed, a radio show in Australia, KIIS 1065, started the #PaintYourNailsForBruce with the goal of getting men to get their manis on in support of Jenner and even took to the streets in Sydney CBD to offer free nail polish. Since then, hundreds of men and women alike have taken to their social media to show their support

PHASE TWO TICKETS NOW OPEN!

German music duo, Clemens and Philipp – otherwise known as Milky Chance are the second international act to be performing at Rocking the Daisies Music and Lifestyle Festival happening from the 1^st to the 4^th of October this year at Cloof Wine Estate in Darling. They are the latest international act announced to play at South Africa’s premiere eco-friendly festival this year, alongside The Cat Empire (AUS) on the Main stage.

 Milky Chance became a viral online sensation after they released their self-produced single “Stolen Dance” on YouTube, which racked up over 30million plus views in one month. They mix elegant electronic production with acoustic guitars and lilting, lush vocals and have mastered an original style that can best be described as singer-songwriter spirit mixed with electronic beats.

 Clemens says, “Somehow, it’s always a little bit melancholy, but there’s a positive spin. You can dance to most of it too! Melancholy is something that I carry within me. I write the best songs when this mood catches me.”
