Former Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe revealed in an interview his longstanding crush on “Roar” singer Katy Perry.

During an interview with MTV, Radcliffe discussed his crush on Perry which was first revealed in 2012. "Mentally I am very close to Katy Perry, a lot," he joked. "I've been in a room with her since and I couldn't say [anything]. I was across a room from her and I was like 'I can't. I can't even say anything you probably seen an interview with me [and] you know these thoughts are in my head. I can't even look at you'."

Unfortunately for Radcliffe, he may have to wait longer before expressing his love to Perry’s face, should he ever get the chance. The “California Gurls” beauty is currently dating off-again on-again beau John Mayer.

Radcliffe was on hand to express his (sarcastic) disappointment from not being considered for the role of Christian Grey in 50 Shades of Grey.

Perry has not responded to Radcliffe’s notes of affection.
