Daniel Radcliffe Lashes Out At Critics Over His Nude Scene

London, England (CNS) - Daniel Radcliffe lashes out at the "moral outrage" his upcoming nude performance on stage has attracted. The "Harry Potter" star has accused critics of double standards.

Radcliffe, 18, will hit Broadway later this year as he stars on the play "Equus," which requires him to get fully naked on stage, as he did in the play's West End theater production.

However, the actor is angry his nude scene in the play is generating outrage from critics.

Contactmusic.com quotes the star as saying, "There was a sense of moral outrage when it was announced I would be naked."

"I don't understand it because it's just a character. No one actually minded that he (character) blinds six horses. It's a bit of a dose of double standards, which aggravated me slightly."
