Daniel Radcliffe has become Britain's richest teenager

Nov 21, 2005, 16:07 GMT

'Harry Potter' star Daniel Radcliffe has become Britain's richest teenager with a personal fortune of £23million.

The 16-year-old, who plays the boy wizard, is now worth more than millionaire teen stars Charlotte Church and Joss Stone after signing a contract worth £8million to appear in the fifth movie, 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix'.

The firm set up by Radcliffe's parents to manage the star's finances, Gilmore Jacobs, has earned £10million from the first three films, according to Companies House, which charts the financial activities of all limited businesses.

The next set of accounts, due to be filed next spring, are likely to show another £5m in earnings from Radcliffe's appearance in 'Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire' - which opened in UK cinemas this month.

However, despite his fame and fortune, Radcliffe recently revealed he can't get a girlfriend.

The actor said he still gets tongue-tied when he fancies someone, adding: 'I'm much more confident than Harry around girls but just as rubbish! I don't have a girlfriend but I try!

'It's that whole teenage thing of not knowing what to say. No one should use lines with girls though, they don't work.

'Hey, is this seat empty? Yes and this one will be too if you don't leave me alone.'

'I don't understand girls but I'm learning slowly.'

I'll go out with him, not because he's rich though! Because he seems to be nice and have a good personality.

i can understand why he maybe hasnt found a girl yet, perhaps he just needs to mature a little, need to remember he is still a teenager!

I saw the 4th Harry Potter (The Goblet of fire) and I nearly cry not because of all the action but because we all saw Daniel grow from a 11 year old to a 16 year old.

Im pretty sure he must be pissed hearing the same thing over and over again, sure hes hot, has a nice personality, has money, and is nice, what about any guys that may have an interest(not in that way)in him too, ya know, hes a guy!he might like to hear from some guys instead. The new harry potter movie was actually crazy!I loved it, I was hiperventilating!

Ok, im 19 but im still daniel raddcliffe crazy! He's reaally handsome. I love those gorgeous eyes and cute lips!! His body is amazingly macho,considering he's only 16.But he seems short or were the other characters in the latest potterGOF movie too tall?He's reportedly 5'8' in height but i pray he'll get taller.Around 6'2' perhaps? I hope so.And why dont he see a dentist? He needs retainers.Yet,i still lovve him!And i want him to play the role of harry in all potter films.It wouldn't be harry potter if it were some other actor. Oh i wish i had a little brother like dan! oh,is it true he's dating his hairdresser?Her name is amy byrnes and she's 23.I think dan should go out with ginny weasley,she's pretty. More power dan!!!

I would most definitely want to go out with Daniel/Harry. I'm around his age love to act. And I'm not in it for the money, I just want to get to know him, and make him comfortable with girls. I'll change his life around if I got to go out with him. I'd love to go out with him!

Lol i think Daniel radcliffe is pissed of hearing the same lines over and over again but what people are saying is true.
Yes I know i know he IS cute,fit,handsome etc... i would love to date him and maybe even marry him but lets not get ma hopes up about it. I live in malta and lol i am nothing special so i dont think a famous actor would even want to know me so... as i said ... better not get too excited

Harry Potter 4 was excellent and i think it was the best yet. I read harry potter 5 and i cant wait till it comes out!!!!!!!
Congrats to all the actors in The Film Harry Potter cos they made a gr8 job. and to J.K. Rowling cos she was the one hu made it all happen
Bye!!!!

Ya im sure alot of people wud like to go out with him! and we can dream rite? well i mean we all mite az well give up there's other girls that he actually knows and he's a celeb. I mean im sure we can get guys around our area that seem nice. O and Alyssa ( if that's how u spell ur name-i really don't care) U wanna go out with him because he seems nice (he probably lives in a different country than u)to be honest that is the stupidest thing really i mean first of all u don't really know him and i have to b honest he does seem nice but seriously wouldn't u rather find a guy that that u know is nice and really i don't think u wanna go out with him because he 'seems nice' it's because u think he's hott and well he is a celebi mean if he wasn't hott and wasn't a celeb but he was nice u would not go out with him to and actually i even like this one guy in my skool and he's kinda ugly but he's nice. So just confess!
love, steph

I would go out with him too but not because he's rich or famous or anything but because he seems to be really nice and sweet and someone who would make a great boyfriend.I know we have a lot in common with music and movies and that sorta thing and Dan if you ever read this I know exactly how you feel and I definately understand what your going through.I've liked a couple of boys at my school but I blush like an idiot and can't figure out what to say and it's so embarassing.To be honest I don't really get guys either but I think I know exactly where your coming from;) Not to freak you out if you read this but I do think your pretty hot and of course I'm a huge Harry Potter fan.I'm a few years younger than you Dan but that wouldn't matter in a few more years.Id'e definately be waiting but hey who am I kidding? I probably won't even get the chance to meet you but I just want you to know how I feel:)

Look 'STEPH' you can't tell people that there posts are stupid just because they have an opinion.Mabye he's not nice but than again mabye he is and to me it really does look like he is genuine.I'm not like most girls because I don't just go for the popular self-obsessed hot jocks I wouldn't go out with him if he was some kinda abusive jerk who was well you know.But every girl has a right to dream and a right to think what they want

Hey! I know that Daniel's hot, homesome etc but then again, he will find his own girlfriend by himself! It could be you, or even me but it's just that Dan hasn't found his true girl and is searching for her. Go Dan! Hope you find her!
