Tabloids love exploiting (and paraphrasing and exaggerating) quotes about celebrities to hype up stories and increase readership. Doing so about Harry Potter isn't new, and the Daily Record hit a home run yesterday by claimingopens in new window star Daniel Radcliffe is "dreading his naked screen debut" in November's Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

Jenna from DanRadcliffe.com, from whose interviewopens in new window the Daily Record lifted quotes and based their story, tells it straight:

Just to clarify this mess they've created - At no time was Dan naked or did he say he was for the Prefect's Bath scene. They took a quote from my article and turned it into something it's not.

Not only did they lift quotes from my interview without permission, they did so without giving credit as if it were their own interview... and then took it and twisted it. Yet another reason why none of you should ever put any trust into anything you read in one of these tabloid rubbish liners.

Well said, Jenna.
