Whenever you turn around lately you see yet another Daniel “Don’t Call Me Harry Potter” Radcliffe related headline. While he’s been on the prowl to promote his new film, The Woman in Black, Radcliffe is also having some severe case of what is known as “diarrhea of the mouth.” More »
With every child star, there comes a time when they want to shake their former good-kid image and show that yes, they do have some badass ways. Look at Lindsay Lohan, for example, she’s really proven that ‘good’ child stars can grow into, well, utter disasters. Now it’s Daniel Radcliffe’s turn. More »
Daniel Radcliffe admitted to a drinking problem after he’d decided to quit, which made the news less likely to become a tabloid headline. Harry Potter has a drinking problem is infinitely more attention grabbing then Harry Potter had a drinking problem. More »
Daniel Radcliffe likes a lot of hair, you know, down there. More »
In this post-Potter movie world, fans have a few things to hold on to. Fan fiction, a possible trip to The Wizarding World Harry Potter theme park, and the idea that HP stars Emma Watson, Daniel Racliffe and Rupert Grint are all friends in real life, constantly hanging around a non-magical fire, with Emma assuring her two best guy friends that they’re still totally more attractive than Matthew Lewis.

Daniel Radcliffe was great as the host of SNL last night, not because he’s revealed he’s a comedic genius, but because he seemed so enthusiastic and committed in every skit. He really shined as Casey Anthony’s dog, not in small part because they let him drop the American accent he was saddled with for most of the other sketches, and they threw him one of their best Harry Potter themed sketches yet. The opening monologue, while funny (Dumbledore working… More »
Last night musical darling/critical lightning rod Lana Del Rey performed on Saturday Night Live. It was only the second time that an artist got a booking in that coveted spot before releasing a single studio album. (The first was Natalie Imbruglia.) Unfortunately for her, it was not her best performance. But will it hurt her fledgling career? More »
For his How to Succeed… goodbye speech, Daniel Radcliffe thanks every crew member from the carpenter to the director, and even jokes about his love interest Rose Hemingway and “bff” John Laroquette. More »
I love Daniel Radcliffe. He was an adorable tiny Harry Potter and a grew into an great teen HP. It’s also impressive he chose to make his stage debut, and big break from his image role as the star of Equus, which makes Harry/ Malfoy slash fiction look like a nursery rhymes. But every clip I saw of Daniel in the starring role in Broadway’s revival of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, he just seemed to fall flat. More »
You’ve got to hand it to Broadway.com’s Susan Blackwell—she knows how to conduct an off-the-wall interview. In her Side by Side video series, she’s buddied up to stars like Sutton Foster and Jonathan Groff; in her latest video, it’s Daniel Radcliffe, right before the end of his run starring in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. You would think that other journalists would want to congratulate the Harry Potter star, but not Susan. No, Susan teaches the 22-year-old actor how to do common household chores. More »
Daniel Radcliffe obviously knows the power of paying it forward. Several months ago, his Harry Potter costars popped by his dressing room while he was starring in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying on Broadway—and now he’s paid his former professor/enemy Alan Rickman a visit on his new show Seminar.

We’ve never given much thought to Moaning Myrtle, the cranky ghost who helped Harry out in Chamber of Secrets and Goblet of Fire. But this photo on Tumblr is so true: She really does look like Daniel Radcliffe in a wig! After the jump, find the amazing Photoshopped response from another Potterhead. More »
No, we can’t take credit for this cheeky commentary on the Harry Potter series; it was Global Comment who came up with this fake tribute for the alternate universe in which Joanne Rowling (not having to hide behind her initials) introduced the world to young, motivated witch Hermione Granger and her sidekicks Harry and Ron. And what a different world it is… More »
In 1776, the Second Continental Congress issued a declaration–a “Declaration of Independence,” one might even call it–that severed all of America’s ties to Great Britain and made everyone, well, very, very angry. Brazen to a fault, it sealed the fate of the thirteen colonies, throwing them into grisly battle with the mighty British Empire. In this case, as we all know, the dark horse triumphed and, in due time, the United States emerged as a super power, with Great Britain as its most trusted ally. Unfortunately, that alliance was shattered into tiny little bits with this summer’s big movie premieres of the faintly English Harry Potter And The Death Hallows Part II and America’s aptly titled Captain America: The First Avenger.

Is there a person in the world with a better grin than Daniel Radcliffe? No wonder Voldemort found himself unable to hurt a baby Harry Potter — he was just too smiley and adorable. Here’s a bunch of photos of Daniel working his smile. Enjoy! More »
Before Daniel Radcliffe stepped onstage for Live with Regis and Kelly this morning, the hosts showed a clip of his first appearance in 2001, where he was an adorable pipsqueak shaking his head in disbelief that he’d just seen The Producers. Ten years later, he’s had two successful Broadway appearances in Equus and How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying – and it’s fitting that they showed that clip, since he revealed that the souvenir he nabbed from the set was two pairs of Harry’s signature glasses.
