J. K. Rowling Scores a Win for Privacy
J. K. Rowling recently won a privacy case against the Sunday Express, who published a photo of her son, David. The win effectively means that newspapers are banned from photographing the children of celebrities in many situations. Senior partner of Shillings, Keith Shilling, who represented Jo, stated, "This case demonstrates that the law is moving to recognize that the children of public figures are entitled to private lives, and, most importantly, to enjoy their childhood without unwanted media intrusion."

Jo was happy for the win. "I am delighted that my children's right to privacy has been recognised by the Daily Express. Neil and I will continue to protect that right, on our children's behalf, as vigorously as possible."

Driving Lesson's Publicist: Film not a kids' film
Michael Kupferberg, the publicist for Rupert Grint's film Driving Lessons, recently spoke with Courant, stating that he was a bit concerned when he saw young teenage girls at the recent screening of the film. The article gives a bit more description of what film is about, describing Rupert's character, Ben, as spreading his wings and learns to fly. Ben, apparently, does just that.

The article goes on to say that Rupert does a good job of getting out of the child-actor-trying-to-become-an-adult-actor rut, stating, "But he can relax about his post-pubescent career. He has made his presence known quite nicely, in a well-made film set in the real world, far away from Hogwarts."
