Daniel Radcliffe wins best bottom award

By Will Stroude

Daniel Radcliffe this week beat off strong competition to be named the best bottom in Britain.

The 25-year-old Harry Potter actor beat 50 Shades of Grey star Jamie Dornan and British tennis ace Andy Murray to be be crowned ‘Rear of the Year’ earlier this week, Metro reports.

Radcliffe – who bared more than a little of his prize-winning asset when he played young gay poet Allen Ginsberg in 2013 drama film Kill Your Darlings – usurped last year’s winner Olly Murs at the top of the poll, while Coronation Street star and former Hear’Say Kym Marsh won in the female category, replacing 2014 winner Carol Vorderman.

The annual Rear of the Year competition has been running for four decades and attracted over 10,000 public votes this year.

Of Radcliffe’s victory, organisers said: “The Harry Potter child star has long-since matured into manhood with stage and screen roles transforming him into something of a sex symbol – baring all in the London and New York stage productions of ‘Equus’.”

Sadly Dan – who will soon be back on screens in upcoming romantic comedy Trainwreck alongside US comedienne Amy Schumer – was too busy to accept his award in person. The same can’t be said for Kym, however…
