Michael Jackson has invited stars of the 'Harry Potter' films to the opening night of his 'This Is It' shows.

The three main stars from the wizard franchise – Daniel Radcliffe, 19, Emma Watson, 18, and Rupert Grint, 20 – have reportedly been offered access all areas passes for the start of Michael's 'This Is It' farewell residency at London's O2 arena on July 8.

A source told Britain's The Sun newspaper: "Michael is a huge fan of the 'Harry Potter' books and films.

"He was utterly enchanted by the magic of JK Rowling's novels and owns all the movies and he has bought memorabilia for his collection."

Michael is said to be such a big 'Harry Potter' fan he owns a first edition copy of JK Rowling's debut novel 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone', which is worth around £10,000.

Michael Jackson is pretty sheltered and insulated from the goings on in the world, right? So here's what we think happened: MJ was home one Saturday afternoon (and by home, we mean an extravagant penthouse suite in a hotel in Bahrain) when he decided to take in a little television. He happened upon ABC Family, where a Harry Potter marathon (a two-day event!) was under way. So he curled up on the couch with his Snuggie and a cup of Swiss Miss with mini marshmallows and watched the first two Harry Potter films straight through. The only problem was, Michael forgot to tune back in on Sunday, so in his mind Harry and Ron will forever be just about thirteen years old. Perrrrrfect!

Harry Potter star Emma Watson is willing to strip naked on the big screen – as long as she is directed by acclaimed Italian filmmaker Bernardo Bertolucci.

The young actress, who stars as Hermione Granger in the box office blockbuster franchise, is on the lookout for new movie parts.

And Watson would be happy to bare all on screen for any roles offered her way – but would prefer Stealing Beauty director Bertolucci to be behind the camera.

Asked if she would be happy to reveal all she says, "Yes – for him. It depends. I'm not getting my kit off any time soon, but it is part of my job."

The good news is that Bernardo has written and directed some of the most erotic moments ever caught on film; the bad news is that he's 68 and hasn't made a movie in five years. C'mon, Bert, we know you have to have some half-finished scripts lying around that you can dust off just for Emma. Or if not, give Larry David a call; we bet Emma would be just perfect to finally bring Rochelle, Rochelle to the screen. It's only about two hops from Stealing Beauty to a young girl's strange, erotic journey from Milan to Minsk.
