Before we start, I just need to say that the new equation is: Ginges + A Chocolate Fountain = HEAVEN. Now that I've gotten that out of the way....

20-year-old Rupert Grint is eating Jello and watching The Golden Girls today, because he is laid up due to the SWINE FLU! Rupert's spokeswhore issued a statement which basically said he got the pork ills while shooting the next Harry Potter movie:

"It has just been confirmed that Rupert Grint has taken a few days out of filming due to a mild bout of swine flu. He has now recovered and is looking forward to joining his fellow cast members at the junket and premieres this week and will then return to filming directly afterwards."

Doctors say that Rupert isn't contagious and is healthy enough to attend the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince premiere in London this Tuesday.

If I was fluent in Hogwartnese I'd add some shit about how Professor Snape should make him a healing potion using the nectar that drips out of Harry Potter's skin wand. Or something. Oh and I'd say the word "muggles" a few times, because all my Harry Potterhead friends use that shit a lot.
