Daniel Radcliffe traded one stage for another during the Trevor LIVE gala as he accepted the Trevor Project‘s Hero Award last week in New York City.

“The fact that I’m able to help with something like this makes me very, very proud,” the 21-year-old actor told MTV, “It’s a huge honor, and it’s lovely of them to give it to me.”

Daniel said he isn’t quite comfortable with the idea of being called a hero.

“I’ll say it again later, but the real heroes are the people who are staffing those call centers and picking up the phones saving lives every single day.”
