'Radcliffe and my daughter are dating'

New York, Aug 21 : Finally it is out - "Harry Potter" star Daniel Radcliffe's girfriend's name is Rosanne Coker and her dad has confirmed that the two are dating.

The 22-year-old revealed last month that he had been secretly dating, but refused to name the woman he was "very much in love with". However, Radcliffe has since been sported holding hands with his mystery partner in New York, where he's currently starring in Broadway musical "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying", and she's been identified as production assistant Rosanne Coker.

"I don't want to say too much really as they would really prefer to keep things quiet. But Rosanne has worked on the last three 'Harry Potter' films, so she and Daniel have known each other quite a long time. They have been going out for just over a year now," dailystar.co.uk quoted Coker's dad, Malcolm, as saying.

"I have met Daniel and he is a lovely guy. I'm just really happy for Rosanne and as long as she is happy that is all that matters to me. No other parent would ask any more. I know it's not a normal life they live. But they have a lot of fun together and, at their age, what more could you ask? Who knows where it is going to lead?"

'Harry Potter' franchise crosses USD 7 bn mark

Los Angeles, July 22 : "Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 2" has had a record breaking run in the first week - the eight and the last instalment of the boy wizard story has already earned USD 640.2 million and with that, the franchise has crossed the USD 7 billion mark worldwide.

The film earned $214.9 million at the US box office and $425.3 million at international ticket windows.

"It is an extraordinary privilege for everyone at Warner Bros to share in this piece of cinema history. We are extremely grateful to the Harry Potter fans who have remained loyal to the movies for more than a decade," deadline.com quoted Jeff Robinov, president, Warner Bros Pictures Group, as saying.

Authored by J.K. Rowling, the first "Harry Potter" book came out in 1997 and became a rage, and four years later its movie version starring Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson hit the screens. The movie was equally successful.

"We also want to congratulate the amazing roster of actors and filmmakers, whose artistry and talent is evident in every frame of every film. But special thanks must go to the woman whose incomparable imagination literally changed the world, Rowling," Robinov added.

Dan Fellman, president of domestic distribution of Warner Bros. Pictures, said: "Becoming a $7 billion-plus franchise is a stunning achievement, which is shared by everybody involved in any or all of the Harry Potter films.

"On the domestic side, the studio is also thrilled to have reached the billion dollar benchmark for an unprecedented eleventh year in a row. We thank everyone at Warner Bros whose hard work and dedication have contributed so much to our success."

Harry Potter cast gets superimposed on covers of classic albums

London, July 19 : Images of Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint have been used to design spoof covers of classic albums, like Michael Jackson’s ‘Bad’ and David Bowie’s ‘Aladdin Sane’.

The trio along with Neville appeared on a spoof of U2’s album ‘The Joshua Tree’, the Daily Mail reported.

Using images of the actors from the most recent movie, ‘Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part II’, a website has transformed them into subjects including Pink Floyd, Elvis, The Rolling Stones, The Ramones and Queen.

While on one Harry Potter and Ron Weasley are shown as Bowie look-alike complete with the singer’s signature lightning strike face paint, another cover shows Dobby the house elf as one of the four members of Queen.

In another, Voldemort’s army pose in ripped jeans as The Ramones, while ‘He Who Must Not Be Named’ also stars as Jackson on the cover of 1987 album ‘Bad’.

Professor Snape, played by Alan Rickman, stars as Elvis on the spoof cover of his record ‘68 Comeback, complete with leather jacket and guitar.

Emma Watson 'began enjoying Harry Potter films due to 'darker' stories'

New York, July 14 : "Harry Potter" actress Emma Watson partied at a pole dancing club to celebrate the end of the popular film franchise.

Watson, who played Hermione Granger in the movie, went to the club after the final premiere for "Deathly Hallows: Part 2", which is the last of the "Harry Potter" films, reports thesun.co.uk.

"She was really enjoying herself. There were a few scantily-clad girls around but Emma didn't bat an eyelid. There are a few poles in the club but she didn't have a go. After such a big night, it's no wonder she wanted to let her hair down," said a source.

She danced the night away with friends.

"She had a smile on her face the whole time before calling it a night around 2 a.m.," added the source.

The actress was just 11 when she starred in "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" and was 12 when she featured in the "Chamber of Secrets".
