Daniel Radcliffe Has Been Living A Second Life As A Time-Traveling Woman
The boy who lived has been around longer than we thought...and he's also a lady.
Seems like nowadays, you're not really a celebrity until people start comparing you to people in old-timey photographs.
The Internet has already proven pretty conclusively that Keanu Reeves and Christian Bale are both vampires with the number of their doppelgangers that have popped up in old pics, and have you ever looked at picture of Jack Black next to a portrait of Paul Revere? It's uncanny.
Why the fascination? I've got my money on some kind of exclusive, illuminati-run, rich-pretty-people-get-to-live-forever scheme, but who knows.
We even seem to obsess over living individuals who embody our favorite stars. Adam Sandler flew a fan out to the premiere of 'The Do-Over' just for looking like him, and tons of Instagrammers have racked up followers just because of the celebs they resemble.
The latest subject of speculation? None other than the boy who lived, himself. Daniel Radcliffe recently took to 'The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon' to discuss his apparent and surprising resemblance to a number of....well... old ladies.
Given his *ahem* impressive smolder, the results are pretty surprising.
I know what you're thinking.
"An old lady? With that chiseled jawline and those tasteful wisps of chest hair? I don't think so."
The proof, however, is in the proverbial pudding.
Here, for instance, is a photo of Daniel as a young girl, positively beaming at the news that, after years of suffrage, women have earned the vote! The trademark HP glasses and wry grin are unmistakable.
Sporting a place of honor next to someone's handsoap dispenser, we have a much less-enthused Daniel in black, still sporting the same eyewear, mourning the loss of his husband at The Battle of The Little Big Horn.
Fallon pointed out that it wasn't only austere, old ladies who bore a resemblance to Daniel. This Daniel is looking positively, to use a period phrase, "mad as hops" over that Edison's new-fangled electric light bulb.
And here we see a much more reserved Daniel, pensively plotting the assassination of Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand.
Finally, we have Daniel with fellow time-traveller Andy Samburg. They busted out their matching flannels for the first concert of a small-time British rock band called 'The Beatles.'
Daniel, with the aid one bomb-ass wig, recreated this moment on the show, and the results pretty much speak for themselves.
So, accomplished child-star- turned-acting-phenom, or time-travelling grandmother? You can check out the full interview below and decide for yourself.
