In a new interview Irish actress Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood) from the Harry Potter movies recently discussed
the new new movie, "Half-Blood Prince," attending premieres in Italy, Switzerland, Denmark and Poland, being fascinated by the theater and much more.
I think Luna is very sure of herself and comfortable with who she is, whereas I am more like most people in that I can get preoccupied with what people think of me. I worry about that when really it doesn’t matter because that’s just someone else’s perception, you know? Luna inspires me to not let it affect me as much.
The best part of this experience has been meeting the people who were idols. That has been great because they are amazing people and they do achieve so much though working so hard. But they’re so normal as well and they don’t have airs and you see all sides of them.
I used to be afraid to appear on the film set because I felt I was not ready and what would I do, you know? But I learned that they don’t expect you to be perfect, and that was a great thing to learn. Just to be a part of the film is thrilling, because I’ve always been a huge fan of the books, and now I can say I did my part for it.
Thanks to Bryan from Irish Central for the link.

Pretty cool! It would be so weird to go from just being an average everyday person to having a part in a Harry Potter film. In my opinion she's in the best position as an actor one can be; she's not a huge star, but she's still known by a lot of people. That's got to be great because it offers the best of both worlds, she can act and not have to worry about being a huge star that's constantly hounded my paparazzi and such which would let her still enjoy her life and do what she loves.

It's a wise person who realizes that it's not what people think of you that makes you who you are. Living for yourself is what's important.
My but she has grown into a beautiful young lady.
Blessings! Hecate3fold!

I love her because she's really our (the fans') sort of representative in all of this - so she gives us what we would see if we were her...

I don't know if she knows it, but Evanna Lynch is soooo Luna. I think she's very fortunate and is perfect the role. Therefore, I give her a high five.

I love Evanna Lynch and what she said was very admirable and wonderful advice to those who look up to her. To not think about what other's think of you, only what you think of yourself is what truly matters! And of course this line: "Just to be a part of the film is thrilling, because I’ve always been a huge fan of the books, and now I can say I did my part for it." Ohhhhh lucky, lucky girl!

Good for her to actually admit it about being conscious about her self even with her being an actor an all. She's really don to earth which is why i like her.
