Give him a wand, he can show you magic. Give him a mic, and he will show you his rap skill.

This is what "Harry Potter" alum Daniel Radcliffe showed after being videotaped rapping Eminem's "The Real Slim Shady" on a videoke bar in California. The Sydney Morning Herald reported that it was during karaoke night at an English pub located in California that the English actor belted out Eminem's 2000 classic, where his girlfriend Erin Drake provided backup and sang the chorus. Luckily, a fellow pub-goer spotted the impromptu concert of the couple and decided to upload the clip just last Saturday.

This is not the first time that "The Woman in Black" actor has been outed as a potential rap superstar. CNN reported that just last year, he went on to "Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" where he was challenged by Fallon to rap the impossibly amazing rap masterpiece that is "Alphabet Aerobics" by Blackalicious. Though fellow guest star Rihanna was not impressed by his vocal musings, the fans were obviously were: he eventually went viral for the act. Good thing too, since he probably would not have had the courage to do so if his sampling with Fallon went sour.

However, it should be noted that Daniel Radcliffe is slowly picking up media attention as of late. Just last week, he invaded the office of Nylon Magazine and stood in as their receptionist. Perez Hilton reported that this was the brainchild of Radcliffe and the Nylon staff to prank any on who came through the door, including food deliveries and a very slick-looking Joe Jonas.  

Suffice to say, Daniel got way more than he bargained for, but the faces of the employees were priceless after realizing that a movie star was on their reception desk and not just some random person.
