Hello you magical major babes, how are you lions, eagles, badgers and snakes doing today?
I am Rebecca Felgate and I see that you beauts have been enjoying my Celebrities in Hogwarts
Houses videos so I thought I would bring you some more information in the form of Celebrity
patronuses.
When Pottermore unleashed their Patronus feature in 2016, a lot of people, including me, and
including a lot of celebrities, wanted to know what theirs was.
For those that don’t know, I will tell you my patronus at the end of the video.
We have got our information by celebrities telling us themselves, on who better to start
off the list than the queen of patronuses herself, we have JK Rowling, who’s Patronus
is a Heron.
JK Rowling Tweeted a thread when the patronus feature was released saying “ I took the
@pottermore test (which I wrote) ages ago when it was a work in progress and got a pine
marten Patronus.
I was happy, because... of my fondness for weaselly creatures”
She then went on to say she took the test again when it was finalised and found her
Patronus had changed, which we know they can, and this time she was even happier as it had
personal associations.
She revealed it is now a Heron!
Beautiful!
So, what about the beautiful Evanna Lynch, the actress who played Luna and who was famously
pleased with her pottermore house sorting of Gryffindor?
Well...she was less pleased with her patronus, which is salmon!
Her character Luna’s Patronus was a hare, but in real life, her patronus is a salmon!
She tweeted “I don't geddit @pottermore...all of my
happiest memories are spent in the presence of cats.
Why oh why is my Patronus a SALMON?!
“
She then continued by saying her patronus would make her cry and feel bad in the presence
of dementors, and she needs a fierce lion patronus!
I feel like salmons are great though!
Dementors would be so confused they wouldn’t know what to do with themselves!!!
HERO SALMON.
American script writer and director Joss Whedon announced on twitter that his Patronus is
a Weasle, something he shares in common with on screen Professor Fitwick, Warwick Davis.
Whedon is known for his work on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Toy Story and The Avengers
and in September 2016, he tweeted Don't talk to me about nobility or tenaciousness or Ron's
wonderful family - my life is OVER…so…errr…I guess he was hoping for something more Heroic.
Warick seemed happier with his result…he said they’re cute and crafty!
Warick took the test as part of the same video as fellow
Potter Stars Matthew Lewis, who played Neville Longbottom, and Tom Felton, who played Draco
Malfoy.
Both lads got cats! Matthews was a tortoise shell cat and Tom Felton’s was a Ragdoll
cat.
I am also betting if Taylor Swift took the test, she would for sure have a cat patronus,
but hers would be a Scottish Fold like her cats Merredith and Olivia.
It’s funny…because I think Taylor Swift herself would be my Patronus!
Eddie Redmayne, who plays Newt Scamander in Fantastic Beasts also did a Patronus video
for Pottermore, in which he discovered his is a basset hound.
He said he loves basset hounds.
He said they were perfect as they’re slightly dopey.
Meanwhile, Ariana Grande tweeted in 2010, My Patronus is a Narwhal.
I’m 90% sure!
Again this is before the pottermore quiz was out and about, and I am not sure a Nawahl
is even an option on the site… none the less, I am sure it is an option in the wizarding
world!
One of my favourite Slytherins, Hamilton creator Lin Manuel Miranda, says his Patronus is a
Bay Mare.
Originally he jokes his Patronus was Karen Olivio.
Then he tweeted Nah, it's a Bay Mare.
But if I were faced with Dementors, I'd MUCH rather have Olivo with me.
She would ess them!
Fair point.
My Patronus is similar to Lins, and we’re in the same house so I am thinking we would
probably get along.
Irish musician, Bry, who recently toured with 21 Pilots tweeted in 2016: Did the patronus
test on Pottermore.
Is it a bird?
Is it a deer?
It's...
It's a hedgehog.
Cute!
Okay, a few Youtuber Patronuses to round off this video!
Cooking goodness Rosanna Pansino announced her patronus is a wombat in a recent episode
of Nerdy Nummies….in the episode she made a butter beer cake…which..yum!
Tessa Nettings is a Tonkaniese cat, which is awesome as she has a Siamese cat called
Luna.
Jackspeticeye let us know his Patronus is a Basset Hound which is the same as as is
Danny Burke’s of Most amazing top 10 – and
Eddie Edmaynes, as we already know.
So…a lot of Patronuses there!!!
Pottermore says mine is a Dapple Grey Mare!
