Harry Potter’s Harem Of Australian Ladies Expands

9:11AM Clem Bastow | Well! After everyone had washed their hands of the Daniel Radcliffe eye-contact-with-cute-girl mystery when Cassi McKay emerged as the likely candidate yesterday, another lass has come out of the woodwork. And, in news that will surely calm the nerves of anxious Daniel (NOT), this one isn’t single either! However, she’s friends with Cassi. Did someone say THREESOME? No? Oh, okay, as you were. It seems Daniel Radcliffe didn’t only have eyes for musician Cassi McKay at the AFI awards two years ago. Saxophonist Savannah Blount was with McKay when the two approached Radcliffe for a photo at the AFI’s after-party. The two played in David Campbell’s band at the after-party and Radcliffe was impressed with both, according to girl number two. “We approached him as a bit of a joke, he was being dragged everywhere,” Blount told News Limited yesterday. “We spoke very briefly, he was sweet and quite charming. We had a chat for a couple of minutes and had a bit of a giggle.” Blount’s comments come as it has been revealed that Radcliffe’s management will show the young actor the photo to see if either is the mystery girl whose phone number he said he wished he had got two years ago. Lord in heaven, this is turning into the Judgement of Paris or something! In the meantime, however, we suggest that both McKay and Blount join the incredible Facebook group, “Bitch I don’t want yo man but everybody kno’s he’s my #1 Fan“. More »

Short But Pointless: The Cassi McKay & Daniel Radcliffe Story

11:47AM Clem Bastow | Yesterday we told you that Daniel Radcliffe has been moaning into his bat’s tail soup (or whatever wizards drink; probably more like large ales) about some Australian chick he made eyes at/with but never got a number for. Well! A handful of potential moony-eyed ladies were narrowed down, and the Daily Telegraph decided that pretty blonde Cassi McKay is the most likely candidate – just don’t tell Dan she’s taken, or he might have an asthma attack! “He was looking at me a bit and I guess I was batting my eyelids back,” Ms McKay, a trumpet player who has performed at the AFIs, told The Advertiser. “We did make a lot of eye contact with each other. David Campbell introduced us and I got to talk to him briefly.” Although she is committed to her current relationship, Ms McKay said she would be keen to organise a second audience with Radcliffe while she was in the UK. “I’ve told my boyfriend about him and I’d be keen to meet up,” she said. The actor, who lamented his inability to get the mystery girl’s phone number on the night, has also not ruled out re-establishing contact. A trumpet player, eh, eh? Know what we mean?! Er, neither do we. In any case, McKay goes on to say that she’s not looking to become famous, just that her mum read Radcliffe’s lonely heart interview and told her daughter it sounded like he was talking about her. Aww, thanks Mum! More »
