Radcliffe’s fans often give him plastic ‘fold up’ ear-type unusual gifts

WASHINGTON - Hollywood actor Daniel Radcliffe was once gifted a rubber ear by a Japanese fan.
The 19-year-old star, best known for playing boy wizard Harry Potter in the famous film series, has revealed that some admirers give him unusual gifts to show their devotion.
“One Japanese fan sent me a present - a plastic ear. It was rubbery and you were supposed to fold it up and hold it in your hand, then walk into a party and go, ‘Oh my God, there’s something wrong with my ear!’ and let it unfold,” Contactmusic quoted him as having told Britain’s Zoo magazine.
“Everyone thought it was weird - then I found out that it’s a famous Japanese comedian’s best joke!” he added.
Radcliffe denied that he ever had romantic feelings for his co-star Emma Watson, but admitted that spending his teen years on the sets of the hit franchise was sexually frustrating.
“I know people always like to say that we’re dating, but it’s just not happening. There’s something really incestuous about the idea of it,” he added. (ANI)
