Ready for 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Drag Queen'?

Daniel Radcliffe, a.k.a. Harry Potter, 19, has a controversial brand new friend.

Her name is Our Lady J, and she's a blond transsexual performer from New York City. Her real name is Jonnah Speidel.

They met during Daniel’s "Equus" run on Broadway, in which the Potter star appears stark naked.

The Sun reports their budding relationship with the classic headline, "When Harry met Tranny."

But, calling her a "drag queen," the Sun's source says: “Daniel is fascinated by the drag culture and is always asking questions. He’s a lovely guy and he and Our Lady J got on like a house on fire. They have eaten out together and been to parties. They have become quite close.”

Daniel, who reappears in July in “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” raved about an Our Lady J gig on a U.S. TV show, calling it “awesome”.

Lady J boasted about their latest May 3 assignation in London on her Twitter: “My iphone UK data plan is FINALLY working! Just had delish meal w/Dan Radcliffe."

Dan?

On her Twitter, she also blasted the stupid Sun for calling her a drag queen. She's a transsexual. Get it straight, English wankers!

Are you really surprised by Radcliffe's friendship with Our Lady J?

Or are you just taking your time looking for your surprised face?
