XAML Textblock cannot be centered

I have a PopUp element in my XAML, inside this I have a Grid with a TextBlock inside.

The problem is now, that the text and the grid cannot be centered with Horizontal and Vertical Allignment...

XAML:

<Popup x:Name="Popup" Height="30px" VerticalAlignment="Top">
      <Grid Height="30px" 
            Background="Green" 
            Width="{Binding ActualWidth, ElementName=Popup}">
            <TextBlock VerticalAlignment="Center" 
                       HorizontalAlignment="Center" 
                       Foreground="White" 
                       Text="Änderungen wurden übernommen">
            </TextBlock>
      </Grid>
</Popup>

Preview in Visual Studio (which looks exactly like what I want to do): Actual Result: The TextBox inside the green PopUp is not centered as you can see. And I dont know why, maybe I´m missing something, but everything looks fine for me.
