How this became National Natalia week I do not know, but the news keeps on coming! Kudos to Lida and Nymphiedora who spotted these jaw-droppers!

Nat's look for Tonks' in the Half-Blood Prince this go-round has appeared on the first picture..found on a foreign ball of colored yarn (?!?!?)




The trailer for Lecture 21 / Lezione 21 can be found at Myspace Tv:




I'm still trying to decipher what the movie is actually about...but it definitely looks abstract enough for Nat

A high quality pic from an OOTP photoshoot a while back, featuring Tonks with white hair has been released, thanks to Oculmencia via snitchseeker, and Nymphidora, for the tip!




Also, I have been trying very hard to convert DAVE'S INTERVIEW into a more well known format and then upload it to Youtube so it's more easy to access, but don't seem to have the right software required. If anyone is able to do this, that would be SUCH a huge help and we would luv u 4 evr !

Here's a great report from Beth:

I was the first person to see her, so she tottered in looking absolutely astounded, asked what she should do, sat down and said "Hi! Sorry I'm really hungover!" :)

Thats our Nat!!!

*edit* - I have added a few more pics of Nat's appearance at CollectorMania, Elaine's report:

I gave Nat my purple sharpie cause she fell in love with it, apparently it made her day! so any purple auto's out there are down to me ;)

I tried to credit as much as possible in the gallery, but I may have missed a few so let me know!I also found many from The Showmasters' Forum:

Thanks so much to Emma at snitchseeker.com for letting us know, as well as Nymphidora for the tip:

This past weekend I attended Collectormania 13 in Milton Keynes, England, where, amongst others, Natalia Tena (Tonks) was present. She told me about her role in Half-Blood Prince & her reaction to Deathly Hallows.

The only scene Natalia has filmed for the movie, isn't actually in the book at all. She was only on set for the part where Death Eaters attack the Burrow at Christmas (where Harry & the Weasleys are present). She said that none of the angst of her character is there - indeed, she and Lupin are just suddenly a couple when they meet there.

In regards to Deathly Hallows, she said she was disappointed to see that they got married, due to her own personal preference towards the institution. So she doesn't want a big wedding scene (which some fans think may happen, given the exclusion of Bill Weasley & Fleur Delacour from Half-Blood Prince). But she did say that she would love to have to ride a broom with a pregnant belly.

This was Natalia's first ever convention and hopefully not her last. She was a true character in every sense of the word.

I shall scan my autograph (which she decided to do multi-coloured, with shapes) and upload pictures as soon as possible.

Thanks so much to Beth who reminded us that From Collector Mania has updated their website to mention that Natalia will be attending the signing on Sunday, May 4th at the Milton Keynes shopping center! This is in Buckinghamshire, UK.

Additionally, Nat's last run in Clean House starts April 28 and ends May 3, in Canterbury DETAILS

AND there are two Nat Jenkins gigs set for for the dates of May 3rd and May 4th including

Up All Night Festival in London - May 3rd
Nottinghill arts club in London - May 4th

my guess is Nat won't be attending these gigs with the rest of the band..but we'll see...busy girl..

After a grueling few weeks of editing, computer crashes and UPS, we have finally are able to release the exclusive interview with Dave and Nat ! I can speak for the site to give Dave a HUGE thanks for making this all come together, and completing a professional, lengthy and very enjoyable interview with Natalia Tena! They talk about everything from Nat's start on the stage and feelings on the fate of Tonks, to the weather in Arlington, Virginia !DAVE'S INTERVIEW

^^It is currently .M4A format, and works best with Yahoo jukebox, however it can also be played on firefox and IE browsers. Since it's 45 minutes in length, so may take a few minutes to download

There is a new article about Nat appearing at Bath's theatre for the Clean House, they seemed to have interviewed Nat for it, as well !

It includes a lot about her Harry Potter experience..

"They take a plaster cast or your bum so you get a proper seat on the broomstick. I love heights and these hot men (the technicians) blow air at me to make me look sexy - it was amazing,"

a bit about Clean House -

"...on Saturday night I had stage fright for the first time. I nearly freaked out and thought I might run, but I took some Kalms and went on"

and some little known facts as well..

"I was born on November 1, so Halloween was always important and on my 18th birthday my mum gave me a witch's broomstick and a wooden spoon, showing that I had become a witch and a woman"

"I saw Natalia last night in "The Clean House" at the Royal Theatre in Northampton and she was excellent.

She plays Matilde, a rather reluctant maid who hates cleaning and would rather spend her time hunting for the perfect joke. She was very funny, a hard thing to pull off when half the time she was telling jokes in a different language and to my very English ears had an amazing Brazilian accent.

The play as a whole is very moving and really funny so if you get a chance go and see it, it's at the Royal until the 16th and then moves on to Malvern I think on the 25th."

From http://www.scificons.co.uk/:

For Harry Potter fans, Nymphadora Tonks - aka Natali[a] Tena - is scheduled to attend the May Collectormania in Milton Keynes. Since those signings are held in the milton keynes shopping centre, there’s no entrance fee.

--It's not for a while but lets hope she makes it this time !
