Daniel Radcliffe

Remember those bloody round glasses that were really pieces of plastic because there's nothing wrong with the boy's vision, and that horrible long girly hair he carried around in 'Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire'? He's come a long way since twinky stinky Potter (emphasis on the 'P'). At 17, he's now all grown up, ready to shed his horrible Hogwarts robes and bare it all for the world to see.

In his newest (and most controversial) role in Equus, a play showing in London's Gielgud Theatre, he appears to have no qualms about removing his clothing for the audience. According to the producer David Pugh, "...he does not hesitate to take his clothes off... appears to have confidence in his own appearance..."

He will play Alan Strang, a troubled teen who is jailed for blinding horses.

Of course, horrified parents of kids who are avid Potter fans have expressed their concern that their child's role model 'will present the wrong image' to their young-uns. Children, however, are delighted to see some chest hair and round-white-bottoms from the boy-wizard who will soon join the ranks of many other stars who have gone nude and since became famous (such as Ewan Mcgregor and Alex Dimitriades)

His appearance in the play, originally opened at the National Theatre in 1973 has helped rake in over £1million in pre-sale tickets.

So much for the toy boy. He's a bit skinny though, something my own boyfriend would probably like. But yeah, for those of you who haven't seen him without his top off, here are some of the promotional shoots done for the play.
