Daniel Radcliffe is the hottest young leading male to hit Hollywood in a long time. The Trevor Project is a non-profit dedicated to crisis support for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender youth. This should be a match made in heaven. It’s not. Though the young Jew was awarded the organization’s Hero Award in 2011 after two years as its unofficial spokesperson, the new PSA ad is anything but heroic. He talks straight at the camera in that serious tone of voice that makes all but the strongest …More

Daniel Radcliffe is a Great Son! (DUH!!!)

AWWWWWWW! Daniel Radcliffe has had some not-so-great days in the past, thanks to a tiny bit of a drinking problem. But now that our favorite Jewish wizard has kicked the habit, he is really enjoying life and has even strengthened his connection with his family!

The Woman in Black Six Seconds Less Scary

Aiming for a 12A-rating in Britain, the money behind Daniel Radcliffe’s “The Woman in Black” agreed to recut the film to make it less scary. The supernatural thriller originally enjoyed a 15-classification, meaning it was forbidden (read necessary viewing) for all those under the age of 15. After cutting six terribly scary seconds, a younger audience can now yelp like girls as Radcliffe is haunted. The British Board of Film Classification calls the missing six seconds moments of “strong …More

Oh no! First we though our favorite Jewish wizard was a vampire. Now we know he can’t hear! Yes, Jspace News is breaking the story: Daniel Radcliffe is as deaf as a door knob. As a rock. As a hard thing without ears. How do we know?

What happens to Harry Potter down the road? How does he pay his mortgage? And what’s his drink of choice? (Definitely not butterbeer.) Daniel Radcliffe answered all those questions, and much more, when he hosted "Saturday Night Live" last week. Watch our favorite Jewish wizard reprise the role that will always define him, no matter how many times he gets naked on stage with a horse (everyone saw "Equus," right?) Middle age: It’s rough on everyone, even world-saving heroes who haven’t moved out …More

Twilight Wins: Daniel Radcliffe is a Vampire

Harry Potter fans are weeping. Can’t you hear it? All over the world, fans large and small are sobbing quietly in unison, for they have lost. The bitter war that has raged between “Twilight” and “Harry Potter” is over. Robert Pattinson may have been better as Cedric Diggory than Edward Cullen, but this blow is just too great. Daniel Radcliffe is a vampire. Allow us to explain. Radcliffe is, by his own admission, a terrible person to date. He’s pale, and awkward, and short, and …More

How to Succeed in Business Goes Goy

“How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” lived up to its name last week, as the show broke the box office record at the Hirschfeld Theatre during Daniel Radcliffe’s final performances. The “Harry Potter” star finished up his 345-show run on Sunday with a magical tribute to the cast and crew in front of a sold out house. Radcliffe said, "I leave this show tonight terrified by the fact I may never find another like it." Radcliffe also honored his co-star John …More

How did the boy wizard beat out Adele, the cast of “Bridesmaids” and Hugh Jackman to be Entertainment Weekly’s Entertainer of the Year? We won’t say it’s because he’s Jewish, but it’s possible that it’s because he’s Jewish. This latest accolade comes at the close of a very successful year for Daniel Radcliffe.

Daniel Radcliffe Takes Aging Potion

Daniel Radcliffe is no wizard with a whisk, or a mop, or any other household implements, it seems. He told the Daily Mail newspaper that his girlfriend, production assistant Rosie Coker, has given him a deadline to clean up his act (literally) or else. His mission, as he says to the Daily Mail, is to transform into "a fully-functioning human being around the house" in just two years. He adds, "I think it means I have to be able to cook for myself better than I can at the moment, and it means that I can't leave …More
