Like his Harry Potter counterpart Daniel Radcliffe, he enjoyed a lot of fame in real life. After his role as our favorite boy wizard, Radcliffe moved to the theater where he showed all. Equus. Unfortunately, paparazzi wouldn’t be affected by hopping fields. Instead, they would wait outside of his theater work to capture new pictures. Fortunately, the British actor devised strategies to avoid being harassed every day.
Although Daniel Radcliffe didn’t have an invisibility cloak, he had a clever strategy to avoid being photographed by a crowd of photographers. Here are some other examples. The Kelly Clarkson ShowActor at 33, he shared why he needed to wear the same outfit every single day. The reason he needed to be stylish was because of the paparazzi outside of the theater he was performing in. He said it as follows:
It took three to four months. Because I was performing a London play and there were paparazzi outside every night. It was like I had been lazy and hadn’t changed my clothes in a while. I realized that they weren’t there. And I realized it’s probably because I’m wearing the same thing so it all looks like photos from the same day. It was so strange. ‘I’ll just continue wearing this.’ And they never came back because it all looks like the same picture in front of the same door.
Radcliffe’s story suggests that even though this may not be the healthiest thing to do it can be an effective way to confuse drama-chasing paparazzi. Clarkson suggested that Clarkson might be interested in stealing the idea.
A friend gave Daniel Radcliffe a jacket made from reflective material. This was another brilliant tip he shared with Kelly Clarkson. A flash from a photographer would take the shot. HornsThe brightness makes the actor virtually invisible! While the paparazzi may never give up wanting to create a spectacle out of this young actor, at least he’s got some savvy tricks that don’t involve running over someone’s foot, as Justin Bieber did.
The Harry PotterActor isn’t the only celebrity who can defy the paparazzi. While in Italy Aquaman’s Jason Mamoa hid behind the Hells AngelsTo escape the paparazzi. Seven-foot-one slam-dunker Shaquille O’Neal would even hide behind trees.While the paparazzi might be a terrifying factor to fame, it is something that like Panic Room actress Jodie Foster told Kristen StewartThere will come a time when the horrible effects of being in public view are over.
The Harry PotterStars did not always have these strategies for handling fame. Previously Radcliffe claimed he would go to alcoholHe had to cope with his fame on the big screen. He’s now moving into the next stage in his career. He has more freedoms and seems to enjoy playing completely different roles. Next, he will be a song parody singer/songwriter Weird Al Yankovic will soon be in theaters as a biopic.I can’t wait for him to tackle the next project (and repeat outfits).
