Daniel Radcliffe's 18th Birthday

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe spends his 18th birthday and the first of his new found $40 million wealth at Lords Cricket ground with friends.

“I know I’m in an incredibly fortunate position,” Radcliffe has said. “But I don’t plan to be one of those people who suddenly buys themselves a massive sports car collection.”

Radcliffe happily took a moment from his special day to sign an autograph for a fan. Perhaps he learned courtesy from his father, Alan, who was spotted that day allowing a woman to board the bus ahead of him… although his choice of book was NOT the latest of the Potter series.

Alan Radcliffe could double as John O’Hurley (Seinfeld, Dancing With the Stars)!

In the US, an estimated 8.3 million copies of Deathly Hollows were sold in the first 24 hours of its release last Friday.
