Daniel Radcliffe battled alcohol problem [newKerala.com News # 137236] Home News RSS Feeds Photo Gallery Home > News > hollywood-news London, Dec 31 : Actor Daniel Radcliffe was battling a secret alcohol problem but is now relieved that he could successfully quit it. The actor said he spent years downing booze in order to have a good time, but he's since quit drinking and is now enjoying a calmer lifestyle because he can socialise with pals without worrying about the repercussions of his partying. "(My life is) a lot better and less chaotic. 449 or so days ago - but who's counting? - was my last drink.

Daniel Radcliffe's face will appear on toilet roll. Oh

Somewhere in the world there is a slightly miffed Daniel Radcliffe waking up this morning. Why? Because hes just found his Harry Potter-esq face is to be plastered over a new brand of toilet roll, following a decision byPotter marketing bosses to allow the new wizarding paper to be printed for Asian markets. Dan laughed, "I have heard my face is on toilet paper, which is really not pleasant. But I haven't seen it and I don't know if that is much of a compliment. The guys from American Pie had their faces on condoms. I know you can get Barack Obama condoms, although they haven't done that for us yet. I don't think it would be appropriate." Er, yeah Dan Rad your face on condoms would be appropriate so lets hope these marketing know-alls just stick to the botty-wipes eh? But if any of you Harry Potter fans do want to bag yourself a roll of the coveted magic paper, youre going to have to take a trip to places like Thailand and Vietnam in the New Year to see if y...

The Harry Potter star is a bit miffed after discovering marketing bosses gave permission for his face to be printed on toilet paper over there. So if you're intending on going travelling in Thailand in the New Year and happen to sample a dodgy Thai green curry, you might be seeing a lot more of the boy wizard. Daniel said: "I have heard my face is on toilet paper, which is really not pleasant. But I haven't seen it and I don't know if that is much of a compliment." The actor is hopeful his mug doesn't appear on something else which usually ends up flushed down the toilet after it's been used. He said: "The guys from American Pie had their faces on condoms. "I know you can get Barack Obama condoms, although they haven't done that for us yet. I don't think it would be appropriate." Daniel has pocketed millions from appearing in the eight Harry Potter films. So he admits he's hardly in the position to question the franchise's ma...
