Not a day goes by when you see at least one person cringing over the fact that reality dating shows are being made a day in and day out. To be fair, sometimes it does feel like these reality shows are a bit too much. But what if everyone’s favorite fantasy character advocated such shows? Well, not just advocate, but what if he actually enjoys watching such shows? Sounds too weird to you? Well, it is indeed the truth as Harry Potter aka Daniel Radcliffe himself recently admitted that he enjoys watching shows like Love is Blind and The Bachelor.

Daniel Radcliffe admits he loves reality shows like The Bachelor

The Harry Potter actor recently appeared on The Kelly Clarkson ShowWhile he talked about a lot of things on the show, special attention was grabbed when he talked about his “guilty pleasures“. Even though Kelly used that term, guilty pleasure is nothing Daniel likes to define his love for reality shows by. Even when she asked if he believes in such a thing as guilty pleasure, he was quick to deny it. “That’s the thing, I don’t believe in guilty pleasures,” said Radcliff.
