Harry Potter has gotten hot!
And in this interview....
"I think part of me would love to play a drag queen, just because it would be an excuse to wear loads of eye makeup." That's Daniel Radcliffe, musing in the October issue of Details about his desire to trade in his boyish wizarding robes from "Harry Potter" for something slightly flashier. And while the actor, 19, will soon make a different kind of sartorial statement as he gets into his birthday suit for his Broadway debut in "Equus," he says he's only a risk-taker when it comes to his career. "I don't pretend to do anything particularly wild," he shrugs. "People talk about rebellion and they say, 'Where is the teenage angst?' But I say I try to do it simply by the choices I make in the work I do. I just like wrong-footing people. I write poetry and I love it. I like being different from most other people in my generation." One thing that differentiates Radcliffe from his peer group is the fortune he's made from "Potter," which he's invested in real estate, artwork ("that's the only thing I'm interested in that costs a lot of money") and a surprisingly unpretentious Volkswagen GTI. As for his personal life, he says he's currently flying solo ("I just don't have the time") and, in an admission that will likely spark many a birds-and-bees discussion among the tween set, reveals he received his first lesson in carnal knowledge at the age of 16 -- with an older girlfriend. According to Daniel, the age difference "wasn't ridiculous, but it would freak some people out."
