The star beat off heart-throbs Orlando Bloom, Johnny Depp, Daniel Craig, and fellow Potter star Rupert Grint to the award, voted for by the public. Emma Watson, 17, won the best female performance for her spellbinding role as Hermione Granger in the same movie, the most recent in the series.

Magical night for Harry Potter stars

Daniel Radcliffe, 18, won the award for best male performance for his role in the film beating James Bond star Daniel Craig, Orlando Bloom, Johnny Depp and co-star Rupert Grint.
The award function was held in London on Friday night.
17-year-old Emma Watson received the best female award for her portrayal of Herodone Granger in the film beating Dame Judi Dench, Eva Green, Kirsten Dunst and Keira Knightley.

Lightweight scarves a heavy hit
As if starlets like the Olsen twins, Nicole Richie and Kirsten Dunst haven't foisted enough silly fashion trends upon the masses, they have brought us one more fashion do: the lightweight scarf. And even though we know it's kind of illogical with warm temps still lingering, we can't help but admit it's also pretty cute. Here's how to hit the highlights of the style without roasting:1. Choose a lightweight scarf. Pick something sheer, thin or knit. 2. Use it as an accent with a tank top, jeans and heels or a flirty summer dress. 3. If you want to carry the trend through fall, choose "pop" colors (deep purple, chartreuse, burnt orange or metallic) to spark an outfit, or choose a shorter scarf that can double as a kerchief. 4.
Johnny Borrell in no mood to find a replacement for Kirsten Dunst
London, Sept 19(ANI): It seems that rocker Johnny Borrell is presently in no mood to add another ladylove to his life, after splitting with 'Spiderman' actress, Kirsten Dunst. The 'Razorlight' front-man fuelled speculations that he's not interested in starting a fresh relationship after turning away a string of dazzling models from his table at Mahiki in London's Mayfair. "This is a boys' night only. I can't be bothered with any girls tonight," the Mirror quoted him, as saying. Borrell had earlier revealed that it was his messy, late-night lifestyle which became the cause of his sudden break-up with Kirsten. He claimed that the 'Spiderman' actress shunted him out of her pristine North London pad because she could not bear the smell of stale fags and kebabs he used to spread in her living room.
Harry Potter Wins Big At National Movie Awards
HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX was the big winners at London's National Movie Awards on Friday night (28Sep07), with the movie blockbuster taking home three gongs. The fifth installment of the boy wizard franchise was honoured as Best Family Movie, while the film's 18-year-old star, Daniel Radcliffe, was awarded for Best Male Performance - beating his co-star Rupert Grint. The Best Female Performance award also went to a Harry Potter star - Emma Watson, 17, was praised for her role as Hermione Granger, taking home the gong ahead of Hollywood regulars Kirsten Dunst, Keira Knightley, Dame Judi Dench and James Bond star Eva Green. But the latest 007 spy movie didn't lose out completely - Casino Royale was chosen over Die Hard 4.0 (also known as Live Free Or Die Hard) and Transformers to win the award for Best Action and Adventure, and the accolade for Special Recognition.
