| | |  Dan Radcliffe talks scars, bullying, fame & youth
In a new interview with the Star-Ledger Dan Radcliffe talks about his Potter scar, being bullied at school, being famous & staying out of the spotlight. Quote: Q: This is the first time you've been in front of a camera since "The Tailor of Panama" and not playing Harry. The first day, did you sort of feel your forehead and miss the scar?
I did, now that you mention it! Actually in the Potter films I'm always getting in trouble for scratching my forehead and knocking the scar off, and on this one I would put my hand up here, and not feel it and worry.
Quote: Q. Did you have any of that when you went back to school after the first Harry Potter film? Classmates saying, he thinks he's so marvelous, he needs to be taken down a peg?
Well, I went to an English private school where there's just so many arrogant people that I would have fit in perfectly if I had been like that! You do get a lot of people who want to have a go at you, though, just because you're Harry Potter. ... People say it's jealousy, but I think it's spite, really. There's this feeling in the tabloid magazines that it's just open season on celebrities and that's permeated (everything).
Quote: Q: What you and your co-stars have gone through must be a little like what the Beatles did; you're having this very singular experience together and no one else can quite understand it.
I think that's true. It's a very, very strange existence, and I don't think anyone can imagine what it would be like. Just before you came in, I sent my friend a text saying 'Sorry, text you back in a bit, I'm going to do a press interview.' Very, very few 18-year-olds send those kind of text messages!
Quote: Q: Is that why I've never seen any pictures of you at clubs waving bottles of Hennessy around?
No, it's because I don't feel the need to, you know, get drunk in public. I'm not saying I don't drink, I do, you're allowed to in England at 18. But I have a drink with my friends at home. Falling down in public and all that -- it's a depressing, cynical thought, but there's a part of people that wants to see that. And I don't particularly want to give them that.

Wonder if he still drinks in private when he comes to the states since the legal age here is 21. I know a lot of young stars drink long before they are 21, so I wonder if he obeys the law, or does he still enjoy drinks in private, he he.

I love the interview ^^
It's horrible to think that he was bullied just due to being in Harry Potter =/

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |

I think that Dan is really cool in the sense that he is a narmal person, so he tries to be.

sending your friend a text like that sounds a bit big-headed to me...
It would be if he was doing it randomly to show off, but as he said he was doing it because he was about to do an interview & didn't want his friend to think he was ignoring them.

Good to know he's not turning out like 90% of British teenagers.
