Harry Potter star says 'Thank You' to fans for birthday gifts Popular (12619)

Previously we reported that fan sites DanRadcliffe.comopens in new window and DanRadcliffe.co.ukopens in new window celebrated the young Harry Potter star's birthday by sending him some unique gifts.

Now both sites have received personal "thank you" letters from Daniel in which he expresses his astonishment and gratitude for the wonderful surprise presents.

Radcliffe had wonderful wordsopens in new window for Page from DanRadcliffe.co.uk for the punk rock collection they sent him:

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I am completely overwhelmed by this extraordinary gift from you and the fans at Danradcliffe.co.uk. When I opened the box I couldn't believe my eyes. I am still sorting through the CD's and gifts but had to write and say you have all been so generous and kind to think of this fabulous present for my 15th birthday. My bedroom shelves will now groan even more under the weight of these CD's but every time I play one I will think of your kindness which leaves me speechless!

And Daniel was left speechlessopens in new window yet again by Jenna's amazing gift of ACED magazineopens in new window from DanRadcliffe.com:

Well, you've done it again - left me speechless with ACED. It is a fantastic magazine and I was completely knocked out by it and the time and effort you have put into it. I love all the reviews and the photos are excellent. By happy coincidence I had just bought the Modest Mouse album which I think is fantastic! I was also stunned to see the fan demographic and as always find it a little difficult to take in the spread of fans around the world when I am working at Leavesden. ACED is a beautifully constructed and imaginative magazine and everyone I have shown it to loves it. It made my 15th birthday very special and I can't wait for the next issue at Christmas. Thank you.

He also thanked both sites for the nearly $3,000 they raised in his name for Demelza Houseopens in new window.

Well done Dan. Not just a pretty face. I really like him - he's not like those celebs who completely distance themselves from their fans, he is really in touch and gracious, unlike other Harry Potter actors with the initials EW... need I say more?! Well I hope he had a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love you Dan

That's really great of him to personnally thank his fans that did this for him. It's also nice of all of his fans to send him all those gifts and such. You don't really see most actors/acctresses doing anything personnaly for their fans like that. That's really nice of him though. I hope he did enjoy all of his gifts though. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAN!
