Rupert Grint Attends Rally of Great Britain!

28km3yo1October 25, 2009, 3:38pm–As we told you a few days ago, Rupert Grint would be attending the Rally of Great Britain today as a spectator. While pictures seem to be scarce, we have finally found one of Rupert being interviewed! You may view the photo in our gallery here thanks very much to Generate Sponsorship! Here is what they had to say about Rupert on their twitter:

We’ve spent the day in Wales at the WRC with Harry Potter star Rupert Grint – top bloke!

We are still searching for pictures and hope to have video of any interviews Rupert may have conducted there!

UPDATE: We now have some great HQ pictures thanks again to Generate Sponsorship! You can view them in our galleries here! We also have a quote coming up from Rupert in a moment. Stay tuned!

UPDATE 2: We now have a long quote from Rupert, and more information about the reasons for his attendance. Check it out here, and we will certainly be cheering for James… ;) And there is also a video of Rupert from Dave TV via youtube. Edit: There is also a clip of Rupert from this event showing his expression up-close to the speeding cars from WRC and available on our youtube here.

EDIT 2: More rally clips thanks to staffer Karo. Check out Rupert and his brother James standing side by side at the Rally event on our youtube here. and also another short clip of Rupert and James here……
Translation From This Clip:
The speaker says this: Rupert Grint, the actor you might know from the Harry Potter films, is also at the course with his brother James; James Grint, an enthusiastic rally driver; and they’re enjoying a bit of the action.


With things being so busy on ICM we have forgotten to mention that our dear friend Lilly has recently completed another amazing drawing, titled “A Second Chance”. Check it out in our gallery here, and if you would like to read the story that inspired it, visit Lilly’s LiveJournal!

    *squee* HQ I love it! Thanks a million to the good people at Generate Sponsorship! :)

  2. Ronnie says:

    i’ve seen the interview already! Half of it is in car-language xD

  3. Aloemilk says:

    OOoooohh, GREAT!!
    I freakin’ love that leather jacket. He looks so… *cozy* in those pics!!
    I’ll be waiting for the interview and the quote.
    Yeah, we know— he’s a top bloke!

  4. Tao says:

    Oh Rupert. You need to see a Nascar race! I think he’d be even more excited. LOL

  5. suzeeq says:

    No offense Tao, but Rally is the bomb. lol They race in all weather. Rain, sleet and snow. lol

    But yeah, I’m for him checking out Nascar. I think he would enjoy it.

  6. Tao says:

    Haha Yeah, I think Nascar is faster which is why they have a harder time racing in all weather. I know they have tires for rain, but I think the speeds scare them to be doing that. But man, he’d be amazed to see them at say Talladega or even Martsinville which they’re doing right now. :)

  7. suzeeq says:

    Yeah, I’m watching Martinsville right now. Lots of cautions happening but that’s expected at Martinsville. lol

  8. HASSAN says:

    yeah… Rally pics… much news this week…

  9. Tao says:

    Okay, the pic I just uploaded is a smaller version of the HQ pic we have. No biggie. :)

  10. Quotidias says:

    It looks fun, and it’s cool Rupert was able to attend. Nice interview as well!

  11. Ivana says:

    Rupert + races = Tao in Heaven :D

  12. Tao says:

    That is completely true! LOL Now if he could come to Nascar and root for JR, I’d be in 7th heaven. :D

  13. talley says:

    I love his outfit and when I was younger I wore buttons all over my jackets too. *pretends I’m closer to him for that* ;)

  14. Tao says:

    Haha Is that a trend that’s coming back? When I was a kid I did the whole pins thing on my jacket. :D That’s what the 80s were famous for!

  15. Lilly says:

    Thanks Ivana for the picture gallery update! I’m glad that you’re finally back!

    Now I’m really sad and bothered with that message on Twitter of someone that saw him smoking. I really hope it’s not true!

    Please Rupert, don’t this to you!

  16. Ivana says:

    Twitter is full of sh*t Lilly, remember all those stories about Emma arriving to Brown in a private helicopter? :P

  17. Tao says:

    It was cold there. Perhaps they saw smoke coming out of Rupert’s mouth because of the cold and decided he was smoking. :P

  18. Carolyn says:

    Love our baby! Just wanted to let everybody know that Ace Of Cakes was at the HBP Premiere and the show will be on this Thursday on the Food Network. It’s on at 10:00 PM for me, but everyone probably needs to check their local listings.

  19. Lilly says:

    Wow, that’s true Tao!! Maybe you got what this girl saw!!
    Oh, I really hope you’re right!
    I still believe he wouldn’t do such a bad thing to himself since we are so well alerted today of how bad to smoke is. ;)

  20. Pffff!! says:

    I thought Liam was a male name……
