Daniel Radcliffe: If I Was Gay, I'd Go For Ryan Gosling

2.6.2012

By Alex Taylor Williams

'Drive' star has cast a spell on Harry Potter

Only in our dreams would Daniel Radcliffe and Ryan Gosling become a gay Hollywood power couple. Fortunately, that dream may not be too far
off.

Radcliffe recently got candid about his man crush on the dreamy star of The Notebook, telling Attitude magazine about his views on gay marriage, homophobic bullying in school—and why Gosling would be the type of guy for him.

"There is that moment in your late teens when you ask yourself the question, ‘Am I?’ but I wasn’t," he said about questioning his sexuality. "Well, this year I have a talent crush on Ryan Gosling. I think he’s fantastic and, ahem, you know he’d be nice afterwards. He seems smart. If I was gay, I would go for a smart man."

He also said the same thing about Lorenzo Pisoni, the lesser known actor who played one of the horses in Eqqus. No, I'm not kidding.

This guy has been in more BG columns than Taylor and some of the Ryans, combined! I think it is a case of "the lady doth pprotest too much!" It p.o.s me off for playing the coy part when he is a practicing player in our 'camp!' Why doesn't he come 'out' and get it over with or at least, quit being coy?

dontcha get it....these are the young straight men who are not threatened by their sexuality or that of others...they are free to talk like this...and it just makes us crazy because this just makes them more attractive

Who cares if they are or aren't ... I just want a copy of the video!

Really? I don't think that a Kinsey 0 (exclusively attracted to the opposite gender) would EVER have these kinds of thoughts. Even though I managed to have sex with two girls in my middle teens I never once thought "maybe I'm really straight"

Sexuality is a spectrum and you are just a little further left (gayer) than Daniel R. I did the same.

i remember him on the 'rove' show in australia. 'who would you turn gay for? answer: "einstein. because intelligence is sexy!"

"If I was gay, I'd go for a smart man". I'm sorry, he was misquoted. He actually said: "If I was smart, I'd go for a gay man".

This made me laugh. I approve.

Must say though, he does talk about the topic a bit much for a straight guy. He may be bi.

Anonymous 2.7.2012 8:07 PM

Yes, but would he also go for Ryan if he was bi? lol

david 2.7.2012 7:24 PM

if you ?was gay you'd go for a smart man? Clearly.

they are both very sexy men what great eye candy they are and a night with either works for me lol.

This seems quite suspicious......kinda like when OJ Simpson told that story about that murder and was all like "I didn't kill her, but if I had, here's how I'd do it". Same with Daniel, "I'm not gay, but if I was I'd go for Ryan". Seems kinda fishy.......

No, it really doesn't.
