Daniel Radcliffe loved appearing naked on stage. The "Harry Potter" star had to bare all in front of London audiences for his role in West End play "Equus," in which his character becomes erotically obsessed with a horse.
Radcliffe said: "It was the most exhilarating thing I have ever done. I did it to shake up people's perception of me. People tend to think I'm a Peter Pan figure, but I'm definitely not, I promise you."
Radcliffe, 17, also admits he is tired of the cute, clean cut persona he got after starring in the first "Harry Potter" movie when he was just ten.
He said: "I had a hideous reaction when I saw a screening of 'Harry Potter' and there was a clip from me in the first film and I just heard loads of girls go, 'Ahhh'. That was just soul destroying."
Radcliffe received rave reviews for his performance as the troubled Alan Strang alongside Richard Griffiths in the Peter Shaffer directed "Equus."
Radcliffe can soon be seen in his fifth outing as the boy wizard in "Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix," which will hit cinemas worldwide next month.

I like Dan Rad. But just one question please- if Dan Rad didn't want a peter pan identity, he cud've just withdrawn himself from HP and then he wud've not been HARRY POTTER anymore. Admit it Mr. Radcliffe, you love being Harry Potter and wanna show urself as a versatile actor. Anyway, you r the celebrity and us fans just shrugged off dirt from your shoe! So, yeah- GUD LUCK WITH GIRLS FALLING FOR YOU EVERY NOW AND THEN!
