Daniel Radcliffe 'Attitude' Scans

Here's your first look at the Daniel Radcliffe scans from Attitude magazine's Youth Issue. As per the last post, Daniel talks British politics, life after Harry Potter, and, oh yeah...gay sex! Included below are some outtakes from the article. Be sure to jump to the NEXT PAGE for even more.

On loathing homophobia:
“I grew up around gay people entirely. I was the only child in my class who had any experience of homosexuality or anything like that. My dad was an agent and represented Jonathan Harvey who wrote Beautiful Thing so I grew up knowing Jonathan and his partner and it was just never an issue. Then when you get to that age at school and somebody calls you a poof, and you go, “What?” You go, “Hold on, why is this word being used like this?” It suddenly became really weird for me to have people around me who were homophobic. It was a very strange, weird thing. I’ve always been around gay people.”

I am actually quite passionate about this. I just loathe homophobia. It’s just disgusting and animal and stupid and it’s just thick people who can’t get their heads around it and are just scared. And I’m not just saying this because I’m being interviewed by Attitude. I’d be using a lot stronger language if this wasn’t on tape.

Daniel Radcliffe Has Attitude

Daniel Radcliffe covers the August 2009 'Youth' issue of Attitude magazine, the UK's 'one stop read for anyone who wants an intelligent gay take on the world'. Inside the Harry Potter star dishes on sex and politics, telling how he grew up surrounded by his parents' gay pals and that he hates anyone with a homophobic attitude.

"I just loathe homophobia. It's just disgusting and animal and stupid and it's just thick people who can't get their heads around it and are just scared.

"I grew up around gay people entirely. I was the only child in my class who had any experience of homosexuality or anything like that."

He goes on to reveal his true political feelings saying that he supports Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg because the other parties offer nothing to young people. [ the Sun ]

DANIEL RADCLIFFE ON PARADE

Daniel Radcliffe takes his next step in the latest issue of Parade magazine. Inside, the boy wonder talks about his preference for older women, turning 20, and going nude on Broadway. Here's what he had to say:

On older women:
“Girls my own age are not really an option. I find, generally speaking, they have to be entertained more than older girls do. So most of the girls I have had serious things with are generally sort of in their 20s.”

On turning 20:
“I’ve noticed I make noises when I get up and sit down now. I mean, my knees are rotten bad—I refused to wear knee pads too many times when I was doing stunts, and I just clobbered them up a bit. I am an old man in a young man’s body.”

On going nude for Equus:
“I didn’t set out to shock people. I set out to do something different from Potter. If I had wanted to shock people,” Radcliffe says, “I would have played, you know, a gay drug dealer. But, equally, you have to tread a very fine line. If, say, my next film was another fantasy film, everyone would just go, ‘Well, he’s not stretching himself.’ Then, if I played some drug dealer, everyone would turn around and go, ‘Oh, this smacks of desperation to stop being typecast.’ ”

DANIEL RADCLIFFE wants to go GAY

Daniel Radcliffe wants a homosexual... role, that is.  After baring all in EQUUS, it seems good ol' Danny boy is ready for the challenging (?) role of "Homosexual".  He had this to say:

"I don't think it would particularly affect me. I mean, I'd never play a gay character just for the sake of playing a gay character.  If the script was good and it was a good gay character, then that wouldn't bother me. Playing characters exploring their sexuality is a challenge.  I'm 18 and so the parts I'm going to be given will be for characters around that age range when people are exploring their sexuality."  (source)
