Emma Watson's Wardrobe Malfunction: "At Least I Was Wearing Underwear" (VIDEO)

Hermione herself, Emma Watson, charmed David Letterman and everyone watching when she sat down to push the new Harry Potter movie Wednesday night.

The Potter movie premiered Tuesday in London in the pouring rain, and her vintage dress at one point needed a little readjusting and she accidentally showed a flash of underwear.

'Tell us what's going on here,' said Letterman as he held up a picture of the incident.

'This was a small wardrobe malfunction, it happens,' Emma laughed, adding, 'At least I'm wearing underwear.'

She added, head in hands, 'I'm still learning, I'm still learning!'

Watson also confirmed to Dave that she will be starting college in the US this fall, although the institution of higher learning went unnamed.

Let's discuss! Is wearing underwear all it's cracked up to be? It's good to keep things airy, though if you are in front of millions, may be best to keep it under wraps...Find more comments and candid advice on all things "lady" at http://ladybrain.wordpress.com

I just love her!

I love her. She is our Harry Potter GiGi. We have seen her grow from delightful child to a charming young woman.

Wow, I've never seen the Harry Potter movies and I never realized she had a British accent. She's very charming. But the obligatory wardrobe malfunction seemed a bit contrived, or perhaps it was the strangeness of Letterman's setup. Anyway, she got the point across. Dang!

new info! I didn't know The Deadly Hallows would be in two parts.......I can hardly wait for wednesday to see Half-Blood Prince!

Emma is a doll! So cute and smart. Well poised. Just like Hermoine, ha.

Adorable.

What a breath of fresh air! Imagine, a movie starlet with class, charm, modesty, and an ability to carry herself well in the public spotlight!

We need more role models like her for young American girls....and a whole lot LESS of the Britneys, Lindsey's, and the Paris's of the world! They should take notes from Emma!

Brava, young lady! Can't wait to see more of your work!

Beautiful, smart, poised. What a classy young gal! I was in love with her, well, probably before it was legal...

[BannedInBoston]

Yes, isn't she charming? She could charm the, er, pants off a well-known pop star....

I am the only one who wants to kiss and rub her lovely legs???

[Ceciboom]

No, but the way you say it is VERY creepy.

[Trilby]

She certainly is lovely and adorable.

BEFORE being assaulted by wind and rain. She looks great, and she handled herself well on Letterman.

What a charmer. Smart, too.

She is darling. I love how she didn't directly answer his questions. Sharp cookie.

I love what she was wearing for the interview, wonder who that designer was -- anyone know?
