| | |  The Telegraph interviews Dan Radcliffe
In this new interview with The Telegraph Dan Radcliffe talks about his experiences on the Order of the Phoenix set and how he doesn't see himself as a celebrity. Quote:
"I think that people are always looking to say “kid star goes off the rails"," he said.
"But I try very hard not go that way because it would be too easy for them. Our culture is centred around this celebrity thing but I think it is to do with your own mindset and whether you think you are a celebrity.
"I define a celebrity as someone who is famous but the things they enjoy about the fame is the parties and the glamorous type stuff which I don't.
"I mean they are fine and fun but what I like is the work and the acting, working with these guys.
"While others might see me as a celebrity I don't. I have known myself all my life and I am not famous to me."

I love what he said ^^ *hugs him* And it is quite true to say the least... I mean, everywhere I go I just hear people talking about other people *sigheth*

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,

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

I definitely agree with him that our culture is centred around celebrities, and it's great that he doesn't consider himself a celebrity. | |

Wow, that's deep, and oh so true about the world centuring on celebs, there are more important things happening in the world than celebs, like seriously, what is up with people and Paris Hilton's jailtime? Bugs the hell out of me. Anyways, rock on Dan!

|  Dan is an Actor..... Not a Celebrity!
Dan is right. Many people should refer to him as a brilliant actor instead of an international celebrity. He is very down to earth and one of the kindest people anyone could ever meet. This is why he is my favorite actor. He doesn't consider himself any better than anyone else in the world.

He's right...I don't just like him because he's a celebrity, and trust me, I would have said the same thing.
