Welcome to the latest edition of Social Media Roundup! Who celebrated a birthday? Who has been working on new projects? Who was paid a visit by Drag Race‘s very own RuPaul? Keep reading to see what everyone has been up to this month.

It was Emma Watson’s 29th birthday earlier this month, and to celebrate, she posted a picture of this beautiful portrait. Happy birthday, Emma, from everyone here at MuggleNet!

Tom Felton regularly posts about an ongoing joke with British musician Tom Fletcher, in which they are often mistaken for one another. This month, everyone’s favorite Slytherin took the gag to another level by including Fletcher’s friend and former bandmate in on the joke!

Speaking of Potter alumni and music crossovers, Oliver Phelps was jokingly looking for names for a new band when he posted this photo of himself, James Phelps, and Natalia Tena (Nymphadora Tonks).

Opening for the #harrypotterexhibition in Valencia was unforgettable. The Spanish fans sure know how to greet people from out of town!

And judging by the photos, the trio enjoyed their time in Spain!
