Rumors of Tom Felton’s Rap Career’s Demise Have Been… Well, Overly *Under*exaggerated

I’m sure many of you have seen the recent news that Tom Felton was apparently due to become the next 50-Cent… except… he’d probably be something like 50-Quid or, if he was going to become a Harry Potter Musician, 50-Knuts (I think that’s a very rapper name, don’t you? Fits well with all kinds of wonderful stereotypes]. The fast-talk/poetry take over, however, seems to have been a few knuts short of a Bertie-Botts-Every-Flavour-Forbidden-Forest-Trail-Mix — What a mouthful (See what I did there?). [Dragon Dung cashews anyone? Hide-of-Centaur peanuts? Will you ever eat cashews or peanuts again, I wonder (I don’t, really…)?].

Where did I get this reliable sort of information? Well, from the lips of the would-be rapper himself, o’ course. Fiddy-Quid/Knuts (He’s going to be trans-magical-barrier, incidentally) said that, just like actual rap (I’m trying to be as politically incorrect as possible here. Also, the emphasis below is mine):

“I can only think that it was an attempt at dry wit that went completely over their head. I don’t know. Needless to say, I’m not planning on taking the UK grime scene by storm.”

The Hollywood Reporter then asked him, if he was going to be a rapper, what would his name be? Tom Felton replied:

“I have no idea. That’s a good question, I’ll think about it”

All I can say is I’ve got two names ready for the taking. He doesn’t even have to ask. So go ahead, Tom, go over the humanly-possible-talking-speed-limit and wow us with your warp-speed poetry.

I have a last lingering question, however: if one were to take the UK Grime scene by storm, would it still be called a “Grime” scene if the grime all gets washed away by the rain? What if it was acid rain. The Acid Rain scene… I think I like that.

Well, here we are again, Avada Kedavra-ing rumors! They call us Felt-Ninjas by nightfall. We have six strings for our ironically-silent weapons.

Over-and-Out

Tom Felton Proposes “Potter Anonymous” for the world AP

Josh Horowitz from MTV interviews Tom Felton on the red carpet. As per usual, the interview is quite entertaining.

In it, Tom Felton proposes “Potter Anonymous” for the cast AP. That’s After Potter, or AP-ocalypse. Which ever you deem more worthy. But… check it: PA for AP. It’s like chiasmus. But not really.

If you haven’t already seen the “Speaking American” clip in our previous post, here you go:

HAVE FUN!!!

First Vids of Tom Felton from NYC HPDHP2 Premiere

Thanks to everyone who provided videos.

The first one is from . Tom Appears at about 2:55 (that’s a bit early, but, you know):

The second is from ShaneShowNew, and I’m going to call it a visual exercise since you have to turn your head sideways to see it. Also, it’s just a slide show of the cast members there.

We’ll post more as they come. Stay on the look-out!

ALSO: if you could not watch the “American Accent Part 2” video, a Youtube version has now been posted on the same post HERE. ENJOY. It’s quite an interview.

Thanks!

Tom Felton Did Not Have a Childhood Crush on Gary Oldman

In an interview with E!Online, Tom Felton basically says that all the cast is waiting on tinderhooks for someone else in the cast to go mad. Of course, if everyone is waiting for everyone else to go mad, then no one will go mad. But Tom’s got bets on Rupert.

Of course there are other things in the video: Justice to the last movie, Pottermore, What makes Draco Tick (no… not me, incidentally. Heh), who he most wants to do a future movie with, and, of course, the crazies.

Just to let you know, the video starts RIGHT away without prompting, so be careful if your sound is too loud, or muted, and don’t wonder if you’re going crazy and hearing sound where sound should not be heard. You’re not going, as Tom says, off the rails.
