Is Daniel Radcliffe gay?

The 20-year-old, who also starred in the West End show Equus in just his birthday suit, has had to face claims that he's more spellbound by men than women.

In a recent interview with MTV, he said: "If people want to say that, they can. I'm not. I'm straight. My favourite thing I saw was a guy on the internet who said, 'Of course he's gay - he's got a gay face,' which I thought was kind of an odd thing to say anyway."

"A gay face? That's a very worrying thing, like they have sat at home with pictures of me next to other famous gay folks."

Daniel recently made a generous donation to an American charity which battles prejudice against gay men, lesbians and bisexuals. Daniel also said he was surrounded by gay people during his upbringing and has appeared on the cover of gay magazine Attitude.

And during a previous interview, he once said: "Some people think I'm gay, which I think is awesome."

He also insists if he were gay, he'd say so, despite being famous. "I don't think my position would have stopped me if I was gay," Daniel says.

Doth the man protest too much? What do you think, does Daniel have a 'gay face'?
