Rowling Makes £5 Every Second

Photobucket
Blink once and Harry Potter author JK Rowling will be £5 richer than you.
Blink twice, three times or even go to sleep and wake up 8 hours later and the woman will have earned at least a cool 10k or so.

Yes, JK Rowling is officially the world's highest-earning author according to US magazine Forbes.

On the big screen, the Harry Potter franchise has made Rowling £2.5 billion - take into account that she still has three more epic movies to come in the series!

The books themselves have sold more than 400 million copies and been translated into 67 languages.

I knew Rowling was rich when she gave money to the Labour government recently but damn, this woman is earning money in her sleep. That must really help her dream good dreams at night, musn't it?

Daniel Radcliffe Gave Me Nightmares

Photobucket
They say imagery can be damn powerful.

Well, the above image literally creeped me out beyond words.

It actually creeped me out so much, I just felt the physical sensation of being creeped out but my brain and logic had no idea why my body was having the reaction it was to seeing these images.

Damn.

I think I'm scarred for life and I can't even put into words why.

If you feel the same way, let me know. Maybe we can set up a support group for people like us?

These are promotional stills from Daniel Radcliffe's theatre debut in the play Equus which, by the way, is basically horse porn.

Well, it is.

I have a ton of respect of Radcliffe as an actor though; he really is one serious and passionate guy to go on stage nude and you know, fondle horses. That takes commitment.

I'll see him at the Oscars one day... which I'll be watching on TV. :(
