  QUICK POLL
For the benefit of Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, Equus star Daniel Radcliffe will be auctioning off the jeans he wears in the show after matinee performances on November 22, 29 and December 6. What do you think? 6 comments
Fun! And for a good cause!
Not exactly my thing, but it's for a good cause.
Fine, as long as the winner isn't too creepy.
Way inappropriate, even if it is for a good cause.
