Daniel Radcliffe's Shaving Massacre

In a quick stop in L.A. to promote a movie that's not Harry Potter, I got a glimpse of the sprightly yet sophisticated Daniel Radcliffe at the premiere of December Boys on Thursday night.

Obviously not familiar with L.A. traffic, the barely five-foot-tall Hollywood wizard arrived over an hour late, forcing loads of people to stand around waiting. But shunning his entourage of agents and security guards, he quickly began signing autographs, shaking hands, taking pictures, and he comfortably worked the red carpet as his publicist watched (from all of two feet away).

Despite only getting a whopping two seconds to talk to him, I got a close-up look explaining just one possibility of his lateness: It must have taken him forever to shave! Danny (as everyone in his circle called him) had little nicks and missed clumps of hair in random spots on his neck and face. With the hair unmistakeably contrasting against his pale skin, it was obvious that the mere idea of a shave was akin to a full on facial massacre. The poor guy!

Uncaring of his botched face, he strutted the carpet in dark, straight leg, asymmetric jeans, a black jacket and a white cotton tuxedo shirt. He looked relaxed but his answers were serious, witty and extremely eloquent. He revealed that he was excited for filming of the sixth Harry Potter in 10 days time but failed to respond to one magazine reporter's inquiry about the status of his love life.

If he was a regular 18-year-old guy, I'm not so sure that this British boy -- who has yet to conquor the art of shaving -- would have much of a love life, but Harry Potter is one sexy beast. Good to stay mum, Danny.
