The young teen who plays Harry Potter -- known to most fans as Daniel Radcliffe -- turned 15 today.
Fan sites DanRadcliffe.com
and DanRadcliffe.co.uk celebrated by raising over £1,600 (almost US$3,000) for Dan's favorite charity and separately put together some fantastic surprises for the birthday boy:
DanRadcliffe.co.uk's "A Punk Rock World" - Fans sent in over 40 pounds of punk and rock music memorabilia, including CDs, DVDs, concert posters and t-shirts. (Radcliffe is a big fan of the genres.)
DanRadcliffe.com's "Aced Magazine" - Webmistress Jenna has been hard at work since December creating a new, semi-annual magazine (not an e-zine, or a newsletter but an actual printed publication) for teens and young adults. The focus is on music, lifestyles and trends that both girls and guys can read together and relate to. (P.S. The online version of the magazine features male pseudo-models Emerson and Jamie from MuggleNet "lookin' all sex-ay".)
The character Harry Potter will turn a year older with author J.K. Rowling on their shared birthday later this month (July 31).

Happy Birthday Dan! That's awesome that he's gotten money for his charity. He's 15, which is still younger than me. That's too bad.

Harry: They won't
Lupin: - that you're safe-
Harry: That'll just depress them.'

He's sooo lucky! I mean,all the stars or the teenagers like him doesn't have so much popularity like he has,and neither recieve at least 1 million of dolars in gifts bye all her fans.I know turning to fifteen isn't every day but for me it's a little bit of obsession for the girls.Whatever! He still looks cute,ha ha ha.

Happy Birthday, Dan!!! I can't believe he's 15 already. I bet he really appreciated those presents from his fans. I wonder if he was expecting the gifts, too. Keep up the good acting.

So cool! He's so recognized! How lucky for him to get all that!
Avril Tonks: Hey, this is the only way I could figure out how to get to you. But email isn't working for me! So I haven't received any of yours. Frustrating!

well I do hope that with a new age, he continues his great performance as our favorite wizard. He's certainly extraordinarily talented, and has his head on straight. I hope he has a blessed year and great time at 15.
