Daniel Radcliffe Was Our Receptionist for an Hour
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 ก.ค. 2015
- A few weeks ago, Daniel Radcliffe stopped by the NYLON offices and sat at the front desk, unbeknownst to staffers and office visitors. The following was written by a NYLON employee, who wishes to remain anonymous. This is her tale.
It was a Thursday afternoon, just like any other. I was sitting at my desk, tired and a tad despondent, when I decided to "stretch my legs." And by that, I mean grab a bag of Cheez-Its*. As I turned the corner to the lobby, I was blinded. The pink neon NYLON sign had been cooking for hours, and it was very bright. I reached around the desk, grabbed a bag, and made my merry way back to my desk. As I walked back, out of the corner of my eye, I saw that there was a man sitting at the desk. I turned my head, and, to my delight, I realized that my peripheral vision had not failed me. It was Daniel Radcliffe sitting at the front desk. Yes, that Daniel Radcliffe. Confused and more than a bit dazed, I stared for a moment before accepting this fact and returning to my desk.
Staring at my computer screen, I thought: That was strange. Was I supposed to say something? Should I say something? Probably not. Then, out of the corner of my eye, I noticed another sight. It was an intern, crying. My peripheral vision was not failing me that day. They were tears of shock and, I think, joy. I looked around and I saw a lot of smiling, blushed faces. They had all "happened" to walk by the lobby. And while some of them engaged with the actor, some of them chose to play it cool and freak out later.
I received no phone calls during that hour, which was strange. And a package that was supposedly delivered to the office for me never made it to my desk. As I started to track down the aforementioned package, I heard a squeal. Apparently Joe Jonas had come into the office, to surprise Daniel and try to resume his job.
Some may call it magical, making an all-too expected allusion to Harry Potter, and others may call it unbelievable, but I would like to sum it up as "a really strange, star-studded day." And thankfully there is this hidden camera video to prove that it existed.
*Cheez-It does not, and has never, sponsored NYLON in any way. That being said, they should. Cheez-It, feel free to reach out. - บันเทิง
There needs to be a series called "Daniel Radcliffe Performs Standard Jobs For An Hour"
this was posted on my birthday and I think that's a good idea and with other celebrity
+KDowah I'd watch that.
+KDowah There should just be a series where Daniel Radcliffe does random stuff for an hour. "Daniel Radcliffe Plays Counter-Strike For An Hour", "Daniel Radcliffe Tries To Win Carnival Prizes For An Hour", "Daniel Radcliffe Skateboards For An Hour".
+KDowah I would totally pay him to work at Walmart for an hour.
+KDowah i would love to watch it ...
Snape: Clearly, Fame isn't everything, is it Mr.potter?
saravana Murugesan that’s a good one 😂😂🤣🤣
I'm hearing Snape voice
Me too
Hahahahaha
holy smoke... im hearing Snape's voice..
“Are you new?”
“I’m very new and very shit.”
that’s definitely applied to everyone a few times
I laughed at this xD
🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's a Jonas brother right?
Joe: This new guy sucks
Daniel: AVADA KEDAVRA
No ! He would have said 'EMPILLIARMUS'
@@MRafay-nf2bc or Expecto Patronum
@@rorymckernan8502 that wouldn't do anything...but enough to freak the soul out of them😂
I’d have said “wingardium leviosa” and stood there brooding like Carrie.
I was also thinking he might be Joe.
How do none of these people RECOGNIZE HIM ....muggles
Mud blood
😂😂😂😂
@@yure1042 .......imma half blood........
@@afsheensuleman5016 cool
@@yure1042 and I'm in Slytherin.
Imagine Tom Felton walking in and saying "Looks like you couldn't make it Pottah".
Lmao
That would be fantastic lol
SCARED POTTAH?!
I actually wouldn't put it past him to do that.
😆
"People come in and you need to know what they need. It's terrifying." I felt that on a spiritual level.
All this really stresses to me is how underappreciated a lot of workers are. Daniel is right, Lauren has a stressful job that's more difficult than a lot of people imagine it is.
Many have the attitude that its "just a receptionist". Businesses wouldnt go particularly smoothly without "just" that receptionist.
I've been working as a receptionist for 9 years and its ALOT more than what people think it is
And receptionists are often looked down upon. And left out. But it's a great job for loners, lol. Except when you have to go to the bathroom.
To be fair, Daniel seems to be worse at it than most people would be.
@@Rattenhoofd They didn't work him in and he only sat there for an hour. The fuck do you expect? Give him some time lol.
Draco: famous Harry Potter can't even be a receptionist without people asking for pictures.
why could i hear draco saying this as i read it
Its POTTAH not Potter :)
I can hear him spitting out those words-
Natalie Kruger I answer to both
I could hear Dracos voice as I read this
kids this is what happens if you dont make it at Hogwarts
That's too funny his career went to s*** after the movie too LOL
wonder why though..i mean he's a pretty handsome looking guy..
@@joeytyler5072 yeah but he's rich asf w/a net worth of over 100mill
LMAO 😂😂😂
Didn't Harry go to Hogwarts?
Potter: "I'm filling in for an hour"
Lady: "Great hair!"
its so scripted and people believe its real. People in this era are so gullible.
@@eduardochavacano ssh, let people enjoy things man
potter lmfaoooo
@@eduardochavacanothat is unnecessary, all they have to do is make him the receptionist, scripting it with this many people would be far more complicated.
Someone should of yelled out " POTAHHH"
I read this in Snape's voice 😂😂
I read this in Malfoy's voice
POTAH reminded me of something else.. 😂😂😂😂
@@bitsofsteve lol
"Mistur Pottur" lol
Potahhh inaaa

A receptionist..and a thumpin good one once ur trained up a bit.. :P
he's doing muggle studies
Ive Never been to the muggle world how is it???
i'm a mudblood and so grateful that i can runaway from this world for 6 months
But magical power would interfere with technology, meaning there's no internet in the wizarding world, meaning to make this comment you'd have to be in the muggle world. #Exposed.
It's nice...I'm a half blood and I live in the Muggle World. It's cool, with electricity..NOT ecklecity.. and stuff. But yeah xD
NoobNo3More lol
Joe just walks in and Dan literally shits his pants
Right lmao I was wondering why he was so shocked looking
Is it Joe Jonas?
I’d freak out and cry
same
NOT YOU AGAIN
A very human reaction, I see women do that at call centers doing customer service over the phone
are u 12 or what?
@@ThatNorma Very funny. My laughing chimney is a creepy guy!
"Yes, I am very new and very shit"

This man handled the pressure of playing one of the most iconic and loved characters ever wonderfully but make him receptionist for an hour and he cracks. He's my favorite person.
I totally agree with you . You deserve a like for this comment.
Sydney the web series yes!🥺😂❤️
..people just walk in and you have to like know what they need! its brilliant.
He's my favourite too😭❤❤❤
Pressures of playing? I'm sure it's a lot of pressuring recording a 3 hr movie over 1.5 years.
This is actually how everyone acts in their first day working at any job.
For reals
Loved when Joe Jonas casually walked in... Are you from the England office!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOL
„You‘re a receptionist harry“
„I aM WhAT?“
„...but only for an hour“
This made me laugh so hard. Thank you!

Hayo TV oh shit, can we now summon some deatheaters?

If I saw him as a receptionist, I would say “hey POTTER”

"Hey POTTAH"
@@centntn pota kaw den🤣🤣😂😂 hahahaha jk
Nuhhh! You gott say it like Severus snape , " Mr. Potter....." .....
In our snape voice
*lifts bag* "does this mean anything to you?" Had me absolutely cracking up 😂😂
"I'm very new and very shit" 😂😂😂😂
HOW DID SO MANY PEOPLE NOT NOTICE HIM I'M SO MAD
Americans I guess
it's call "acting"
he's just a dude, you don't have to freak out to celebrities.
He looks different now duh
Chances are you might be one of those people. We tend not to notice everyone, especially if we don't know what to look for.
"Are you form the England office?" "Ye.. Yes, I'll go with that." 😂😂😂
Tirza what min?

“This new guy sucks?”
What an ass. He is new so what do you expect MR perfect?

that was joe jonas i swear

"I'm very new. Yeah, very new and very shit."

All the women suddenly needing stuff from reception 😂
They are excited to see Harry Potter sitting in the reception 😀.

I literally wouldn’t work all day 😂
A Grange right they just want the wand cock
I would have been hi harry dan potter
Shoutout for All the Receptionists out there who are doing Tremendous Helpful Jobs that nobody really noticed! Thank You So Much to Daniel Harry Potter Radcliff too for taking over for an hour for Lauren! How Sweet! 🌷🌿🌍💖
"People come in and you just need to know what they need. It's terrifying!" Remember that next time you complain about the new waiter taking "too long".
I literally read your comment the EXACT MOMENT he said it in the video! Epic and you get a like!!!!
half the people are like “bruh shitty receptionist” and the other half are “omg daniel radcliffe!!”
There’s no in between 😂😂😂
I would be "omg Daniel Radcliffe" but i live in Germany, so this never will happen... Sorry for my bad English haha
We can clearly tell who's a muggle just by their reaction
@@chelsea-fx4kp but there are people who never watched hp and know dan from an other film/movie
Lol imagine youre in some office and the receptionist struggles to do what the receptionists there do, and you have to kinda help him out. Youd think that he/she sucks too, IF you dont know that he is a celeb under cover.
You're a receptionist Harry.
TheEllimist LMAO
TheEllimist I laughed so hard at this thank you so much.

can kill Voldemort but can’t handle reception for an hour.
Can kill Voldemort but can’t find the stamps
City people are far scarier than Voldemort lol
Everyone has their gifts.
I love that him and Elijah Wood both got rich as hell when they were young and do awesome work these days that they love, while both being decent and very talented people with good taste. They don't need the money.
Also, both not very tall and looking very similar to each other.
Looks like a Hogwarts degree isn't worth much these days...

Shoutout to the dude at 2:19 who asked Daniel if he wanted anything. We need more people like that ☺
Thanks for noticing! I love that guy
Omg I died when I saw Joe 🤗💜 and Daniel gave him such a cute look
Joe Jonas trolling Daniel Radcliffe, hahaha. Thank you TH-cam for this recommendation.
I was wondering why no one was talking abt this
Same.
Exactly
So it WAS him, I knew it.

Gaming Daily immma whaaaaaat?
Tom Felton strides through the door: "Wait until my father hears about this!"
Honestly same. I work reception at a vet clinic and I swear everytime someone walks in or the phone rings I'm flippping coin to see if I burst into tears or not.
Finally he knew what it means to be a Dobby...
Kakashi Hatake muggle. Dobby was the goblin elf thing I think muggle is a human lol. And u I’ve never watched Harry Potter.
4OrCE1onGoodGaming i think what kakashi meant was being dobby as a housemaid. Doing all stuff oh his own. Why did u bring out the muggle argument?
4OrCE1onGoodGaming a muggle is a non-magical person
u just envy becos u are not popular
ur an idiot 4OrCE1onGoodGaming. Nice joke though Kakashi
3:17 "are you from the england office?"
hahahhaha 😂😂😂
And he replies, "Yes, I'll go with that." XD
Joe Jonas , that guy ?
+Bismoy Murasing Yas 😻
"Very new and very shit"
I think he was doing a bit. For sure.
"harry!! would you like to fill the receptionist position?" dumbledore asked calmly
I worked as a receptionist and I can’t believe they left him to deal with all that! Just an hour but a lot can happen in that span of time. Very funny but definitely felt Daniel’s stress! Handled it like a champ though, he would have been a wonderful receptionist.
He's so easy to recognize. I'm surprised people didn't recognize him immediately from his starring in LORD OF THE RINGS.
Hehe
Lmao 😂 i thought he was in game of thrones 🤔
Yep, that Frollum character, man, what a performance! But I still think he should've never used the Ring and turned to the Dark, just sayin...
@@mangalvnam2010 Why does “Frollum” sound like another word for testicle
This comment wins.
If i was there i would say “You’re Harry Potter” with Hermiones accent

Cypher MANIAC And you are?......

Me too me too
Hermione Granger that would have so strange if Emma Watson then turns up for a photo shoot with NYLON
Imagine having Frodo as your receptionist... I'm so jealous
It’s funny when some people don’t recognize him he just does his job as if he really works there

@@jacobhastings9616 Thanks, np.
Legendary Gaming! Not even close no.
What he needs is that know-all Granger to suddenly turn up and tell him how to do everything perfectly.
This was adorable and strangely comforting at the same time.
Comforting? How?
I felt the 2nd hand stress and embarassment for him.
@@panda4247 Comforting in the sense that he’s incredibly relatable in this scenario.
was it just me or did Daniel look so freaking starstruck when he saw Joe 😂😂
his name is harry. not daniel
He did 😂😂😂
Who is Joe? What's his full name?
joe jonas from jonas brother
Valencys joe jonas. he used to be in a band with his brothers called the jonas brothers. he's in DNCE now you probably know their song cake by the ocean
"Yes I'm very new and very shit" hahah
all japanese women love this man
It was interesting.Especially people's reaction😂
I enjoyed it

"This new guy sucks." Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. The most brilliant line ever said.
Right xD
You forgot to say "brilliant."
Bloody brilliant!
brilliant! but scaaaryy!!
"people come in and you just need to know what they need" ...sounds like the job of a Director.
Snape: Well clearly, you should have turned to page 394 as soon as I said so

It's probably a mission. Maybe there's some dangerous witch working in that place or some wizard contrabanda. :D

The people didn't notice him are muggles
the moment you realize daniel is still more famous than joe jonas
Who's Joe Jonas
Harry has been in the game alot longer but imagine growing up in Hogwarts like his whole life was Harry Potter 12 years of it
When you look up who he is, you probably will recognize him
And 100x richer

Waw If I didn't have read a the comment, I wouldn't have known who that guy is. 😅
I would absolutely die if I came into work one day and Daniel was sitting at the front desk ahahah what a good sport!

Most busy receptionist i have ever seen

Lol...I loved that too
This got me as well
"I am very new, yea. Very new and very shit". Me, everytime someone asks me, even tho I work already since 6 months in my job. 😂😂
DasDas also feel that way. Lul
what do you work as? I am looking for an admin/receptionist job but i have 0 experience :P proving difficult loll i wouldnt know how to transfer calls etc.
@@user-xm6cl4jz5o They'd definitely train you. As long as you have good verbal and communication skills you'll be more than qualified for most receptionist positions. As long as it's not a crazy big company.
actually gonna use it now if ppl ever ask me
He’s so cuuuuuuute!!!
Are you from the England office
Daniel: Yes, I take that
Honestly, he has one of the most recognizable faces in the world, how can you not recognize him?
Adults: see Daniel Radcliffe
Children: see Harry Potter
It should be the opposite
its opposite.. childrens now are know daniel,as daniel..but the adult still see him as a young boy potter..lol thats according to Daniel.
Ok

I am a kid and who's Daniel Radcliffe? He is my one and only Harry potter. It must be his muggle identity
Im dissapointed why no one say " Harry why you here ? "
lmfao 🤣
Same, I would have gone with harry..harry POTTER 😂🤣
Nah they should have said "You're a receptionist, Harry!"
As far as I know, he does NOT actually like those kind of jokes. He said once that he is tired of being recognized the grand majority of the time over the years as Harry Potter, specially when he didn't even like his own performance at the very first movies. He can´t watch those movies without cringing at himself, lmao. But yeah, I'm actually happy that no one said something like that.
i would have said that too :D
He does not strike me as a celebrity. He seems like a regular person, very much down to earth.
Oh Dan, I hated working as a receptionist too 😅
This made me laugh so hard! ❤
