Actor Daniel Radcliffe loves the fact people think he's not straight

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe loves the fact people think he's not straight. In a recent interview with Moviefone, Radcliffe stated "I grew up around gay people my entire life, basically, that's possibly why I'm quite camp, and some people think I'm gay when I meet them, which I think is awesome. It's always good to keep them guessing."

Radcliffe also revealed that according to some internet sources, he has a 'gay face': "I don't go on any blogs or chats or anything, but my friends are demons for them, and apparently someone said "Daniel Radcliffe is gay. He's got a gay face!" [Laughs] I really don't know what a gay face is." The statement came as the 20-year-old star discussed the recent rise of Harry Potter headmaster Dumbledore as an icon for the gay rights movement.

The actor gave his full support to Rowling for her decision to create a gay character within the series: "I think it's wonderful that Dumbledore was outed as gay … Half of me thinks Jo Rowling just did that to see if she could piss off the right wing, but I'm not sure how true that is. I think she had it planned, I think she always knew he was gay."

He also opened up about the infamous Equus picture. "It was just going to happen, wasn't it? Somebody was going to get a picture up. It's not me looking my proudest, if I'm honest with you, it's not me in my best [laughs]. But, hell, the pictures were always going to get out, and I knew that. And frankly, there's not even one part of me that feels I shouldn't have done it. It was the best thing for me, to get back to what I love doing, which is acting" Radcliffe said.
