Though not intentionally on his part.

In his latest comic masterpiece, Perez successfully cut-and-pasted word for word the sub-headline of a Telegraph story that stated, “Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson have entered the Guinness World Records book as the highest grossing lead actors of the decade.”

What he didn’t do successfully, however, was actually read the Telegraph’s story. The article noted that the two young actors made the Guinness World Records book because their films earned billions of dollars at the box office. “Radcliffe’s films earn an average of $558 million, while Watson is ahead of $753.7 million as last year she also starred in The Tale of Despereaux, a children’s animation in which she voiced a princess.”

But “Scoop” Hilton took it to mean that they – the actors – earned that amount of money. He wrote, “it’ll probably suprise (sic) you to learn though that it’s actually Emma who came ahead in the bank, bringing in $753.7 million last year while Daniel only brought in $558 million.” He then added, “Hope the kids at Brown don’t get wind of this. Emma will be footing the bill every time they go out.”

No, they won’t have her always pay, Perez. Because unlike you, those Ivy Leaguers learned as far back as first grade not only how to cut-and-paste, but also how to READ.
