Every Monday, the KQED Arts blog features a new Video of the Week to start the work week off right.

I’ve seen fans go crazy before. Like the fainting girls at that New Kids on the Block concert I went to in the ’80s or the crying armies behind barricades during Beatlemania. But never have I seen a fan lose their mind quite so endearingly as Kana Matsuda, a girl who beat out 10,000 contestants for the chance to visit the Harry Potter set in the UK. Cameras from a Japanese comedy show captured her surprise meet-and-greet with Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint. She screams, makes animal birthing noises, and asks “Touch OK?” before poking her idols’ faces. Her honest insanity is so refreshing that I may or may not have watched this clip six times already. Make that seven.

If you have any crazy sexy cool videos of your own, share them with us and we’ll consider them for future installments of Video of the Week!
