Star Catcher
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.

46. 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...

47. Maybe he is just tired of having to stop every ten feet for somebody to take a picture of him. I will continue to buy his music - and respect his need for some privacy.

49. I doubt if HC had to stop every ten feet for someone to take a picture with him... Bobby Darin? Yes. Harry? No.

51. This guy is loserville to the Max.....he only thinks of his new orleans self and we all know that. he has to carry a gun to make himself feel real. crying for new orleans at every turn, but he could care less about you and me when it comes to fans.

I say to hell with him. he is a phoney and he has been found out by so many. may his managers who are reading this find out, and figure out he is a phony and so are you.

Harry jr. you are a fraud

52. Isn't Harry Connick, Jr an IMPERSONATOR of Frank Sinatra?
'
Doesn't he make his money but ACTING the character of Frank Sinatra and trying to play the role? I guess when Frank Sinatra died - people needed an impersonator.

53. I've said it before, and I'll say it again... He's NO Bobby Darin. Bobby was the BEST singer, musician, songwriter, actor, comic and all-around entertainer... ever. Even Elvis was in awe of him.

... and it's a well known fact (to any BD fan) that Sinatra was extremely jealous of him.

54. JUST DONT BUY NOTHING that has this stupid actor on it!! dont watch the tv channel that promotes this as. ! dont buy the tabloids either!! who do these so-called celebrities think they are?

55. In my opinion, ALL celebs today are GROSSLY overpaid. The only GREAT ones, are the ones from the past... and MOST of them are already dead. : (

56. Leave Harry alone. He is a southern gentleman and a great entertainer who sings and acts very well. He is an excellent piano player as well. He is very down to earth and doesn't put on airs. He said " we're late bro," in a very pleasant friendly voice. What more do you want?

57. I want HC to look at that video from TMZ and get back to that fan whom he had NO time for, and to go back and get that picture taken with him, that he wanted... IF he can even find the poor guy. It isn't rocket science... and what was so monumentally important that he HAD to get to, that he couldn't be late??? and how could 10 seconds to get his picture taken with a fan make ANY difference to HC? Well, it would have made a difference to the fan... but I guess THAT'S not really so important, now is it???

Why anyone is even a fan of these celebs nowadays, is beyond me. Not ONE is worth all the attention and $$$ they get. Self-absorbed... self-centered jerks... and BORRRRRRRRRING.

58. it is said that he has an account on a service site seekingsugar.com. believe?

59. I don't see anything wrong with Harry Connick Jr. not signing an autograph, that is his prerogative, especially if he is running late and with his wife. He is not just a celebrity he's a human being too and when he isn't performing his life is his own. It's nice when a celebrity has the time to sign an autograph, but it should be considered something nice they do and not something that their fans are owed. The only thing entertainers owe their fans is to perform to the best of their abilities and entertain us in the field of their talent.

60. When my sister was dying of cancer we had a huge fundraiser for her. On a whim I sent Harry a letter telling him we were trying to raise money for her bone marrow transplant. He so kindly arranged 2 front row seats to his show, airfare and hotel accomodations in Montreal for the weekend to auction off. He said his Mom died of breast cancer so he knew how difficult this was for us. I had never met him and had always loved his music. I am a forever fan because of the kindness he showed my family. Before you pass judgements on people consider these photogs and publicity hounds annoying you 24-7.

He's there when it counts.
