daniel-radcliffe-cover-1No, Harry, say it isn’t so. British tabloid The Daily Mirror published a blurry photo of Daniel Radcliffe partying it up — and they claim that he’s smoking a “spliff” (oh, adorable British slang). Is our favorite wizard coping with the stress of Hogwarts by getting high?

According to People Magazine, Daniel’s rep claims that it’s not pot; “We categorically deny the allegations regarding Daniel Radcliffe published in today’s Daily Mirror,” the rep told People. “Daniel does smoke the occasional roll-up cigarette, but he was not doing anything more than this. We are considering our position and will be taking all necessary action in relation to such allegations.”

The photo of the dazed-looking Daniel, 20, also shows him with a giant, elaborate mustache drawn on his face. Partygoer Wadia Tazi, 26, told the Mirror: “Daniel was laughing and seemed to find it funny. But he didn’t really look like he knew what was going on.”

The paper says the party took place in a North London high-rise and was hosted by a friend of Daniel’s sometimes girlfriend, actress Laura O’Toole.

Whether it was pot or not, it’s not really the most shocking news. He’s 20, the same age as many college juniors. I still love Harry — though, if this turns out to be true, many parents may not.

    who cares. when our president was 20 he was smoking pot. in fact, that's true for our last three presidents. top that off with a michael phelps or two, and your case becomes pretty unconvincing. "i heard he drinks alcohol too!"
