Connick Jr. to Fan -- It's Never Going to Be You

A fan in NYC finally caught Harry Connick, Jr. yesterday, after trying for 20 years to get a photo with him -- looks like he may have to wait 20 more, as Connick completely blew him off!


Also in New York -- a bundled up Madonna, bubbly bantering buddies Eva Mendes and Anne Hathaway, caped crusader Rosario Dawson, John Cusack and a fur-lined Nicollette Sheridan.

All this and more in today's "Cold Shoulder" edition of Star Catcher NY.

31. I don't need a photo with him to enjoy his music. Waitng 20 years for that sounds like a lot of drama to me. awww, poor baby. I'd make you wait a lot longer than that.

Get a life you jealous freaks!!!!!!

32. #31....it would've taken him less than 5 seconds to let that guy get his pic. he just blew off his fan, that's all there is to it. i use to like him myself, but apparently, he's full of himself. i won't be buying any of his albums....at all!

34. I want to say to the fantaci, "God, leave him alone". Get a life if you stalk celebs and expect them to 'make you feel good'.

35. Are you people kidding ? What exactly did he do wrong ? He was on his way somewhere and was running late and could not take a picture with a total stranger- and this is a problem for you-why ? These people do not OWE us anything-when did you all start thinking they did ? Does every sports person, movie star or singer stop and take pictures with fans ? if they did, the would not have a life-they would be too busy babying the whining public-Get over yourselves for crying out loud !

39. He's no Bobby Darin... I bet Bobby would have had his picture taken with him. Bobby was someone who had personality, brains and CLASS. He was extremely grateful for everything he had and he never looked down on others because he remembered where he came from. He had the utmost respect for each and every one of his fans.

40. Any "fan" that has been trying to get a photo for twenty years is a stalker and seriously needs to get a life. I don't blame Mr. Connick for keeping people at arm's length. There are some real loons out there and one of them, a "fan", shot and killed John Lennon.

41. This guy's been trying for 20yrs to get a pic with Harry.???? That sorta borders on STALKING, if ya think abiut it. The story doesn't say why Harry declined the pic. So there is a lot of jumping to conclusions. And, since TMZ doesn't always present a situtation in it's true light, it's difficult to know what is fact and what is fiction in the story. I don't think celebs OWE us anything , other than to DO THIER JOB of making movies, or music or art.

42. Harry IS a nice guy, but he does not pose for pictures with fans. It is very rare that a fan is able to have a picture taken, but he is usually very gracious when he declines. I don't know why Harry doesn't pose for pictures, but someone who'd really been a fan of his for 20 years would know that.

43. HCJ married a super hottie Jill Goodacre in "90" I believe. Now she is over forty and like all other older women, hasn't aged well. He seems like a guy who turns on the charm when the cameras are rolling. Other then that I doubt he is fan friendly. Don't get me wrong, Jill Goodacre was hot in her day. Once a woman turns 35 it's time to trade them in for a newer model.

44. Fan my ass... Harry could easily tell that was just another pap trying to stall him. They are really getting sickening in their tactics...

45. PS
I met Harry after a show here in my hometown & he was more than gracious in offering me a hug! It's easy to see that none of ya'll are real fans either...
