J.K. Rowling Named Entertainer Of The Year

One of Dotspotter's favorite blogs, UselessPlace, is certinaly NOT useless when it comes to news on Harry Potter scribe JK Rowling. The British author was recently named Entertainment Weekly's Entertainer of the Year and UselessPlace has the scoop: 

 

Entertainment Weekly released its list of 2007s top entertainers. They gave kudos to J.K. Rowling, the author of the popular Harry Potter series. She has sold nearly 400 million copies of her books and is praised for getting “people to tote around her big, old-fashioned printed-on-paper books as if they were the hottest new entertainment devices on the planet”.

 

The magazine separates entertainers into five categories that read like a high school “Who’s Who”. Rowling was alone in the “prodigies” category.

 

Other winners include George Clooney, Will Smith, and Angelina Jolie as “valedictorians”; Matt Damon, Carrie Underwood, Kanye West, Johnny Depp, and Katherine Heigl as “Most Popular”; Tina Fey, Vanessa Williams, and Judd Apatow as “Class Clowns”; and Amy Winehouse, Tyler Perry, and Gerard Butler as “Most Buzz-worthy”.

 

Turns out Harry Potter really IS magical…
