The
‘Harry Potter’ star was honoured with the accolade – which was won by
country singer Taylor Swift last year – by Entertainment Weekly
magazine, and the publication’s editor Jess Cagle thinks awarding the
gong to the 22-year-old actor made “the most sense”, she described him
as “the nicest guy with one of the brightest futures in Hollywood.
There’s nothing he can’t do. Ultimately there was one person who made
the most sense”.
Jess revealed Adele was a close runner-up for the
accolade, but she praised Daniel’s ability to avoid some of the
pitfalls of fame, she added: “He’s really interested in doing the work.
Despite all his wealth and fame as a teenager, he never derailed. He was
never busted. Never went outside without his panties on.”
Last
year, Taylor became the youngest-ever star at the age of 20 to be given
the honour by Entertainment Weekly, which paid tribute to the
achievements of James Franco, Kanye West, Katy Perry, John Hamm, and Ben
Affleck in 2010.
Daniel’s win comes after he was named the
wealthiest British star under 30 by heat magazine last month after
amassing a almost £52 million.
The actor – who has been appearing
in a Broadway production of ‘How to Succeed in Business Without Really
Trying’ – retained top spot in the list and his fortune increased by
£6.1 million from last year’s figure thanks to his starring role as the
titular character in the final two movies in the wizard franchise –
‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows’ – Parts 1 and 2′.
