Celebrity Feuds
Gandolfini Attacks #1 Fan!

James Gandolfini went all Tony Soprano on the so-called #1 Fan in New York this morning -- grabbing him by the collar and threatening him for getting too close.


Gandolfini's attitude quickly changed once outside JFK -- where there were more cameras waiting -- and he tried to make the annoying fan fuggeddaboutit -- by posing for pictures.

16. I knew "Tony" was a man of few words but this has shocked me. His fans made him and if this is how he trears his fans (annoying or not) Later he changes his mind and takes the picture with him because what he did made him look bad? I wouldnt ask this joker for the right time of day. Boy this changed my mind about Tony. Go eat some chinese food Tony! your wilting away to a ton.

19. James' first wife divorced him because he beat her and claimed he had anger issues. This video just proves her point.

20. I love the Sopranos and I think James Gandolfini is a terrific actor, but he is rude and out of line here. This fan may be a jerk, but he's still a fan and did nothing in my opinion that would warrant being grabbed and choked like that. Gandolfini is also twice his size. You showed a video a few weeks ago of Gandolfini throwing broccoli from a salad at a photographer and I thought he was wrong to do that, as well. He's famous and in the spotlight and he should expect attention. This really makes him look bad and look like a low-class thug.

21. This meathead is always acting like a jerk in public. I wish someone would kick his fat greasy mob boss wannabe ass already.

22. i don't blame him at all. i've been waiting for someone to punch that guy in the face. James is right. he does get too close - all the time - and you can see it on the faces of other celebrities. the guy gets too close. it's about time. bravo, James. BRAVO!

23. What a Jack Ass. The show is over, James. You are not Tony Soprano. You better appreciate the fans you still havr becasue of that show. People will leave you totally alone soon enough.

24. Tony did the right thing, that guy is annoying to death. Tony said don't come close to me. SOPRANOS lives again.

25. James is HOT. Screw the #1 fan, he is a pestering a-hole. He probably had been worrying the crap out of him for awhile. I thought he was joking around at first, wonder what he said to him when he had him jacked up?

26. I still love Jimmy! He was right to tell the guy to back off. You never know what a crazy fan might do - or anyone else for that matter. He doesn't have a body guard so it's up to him. He handled it just fine. Some of you are just jealous & you must have really boring lives!

27. What an annoying pest!!! That guy was soooo desperate for attention. He's lucky he didn't get "wacked" from James. Still, it was sort of cool for James to pose for a few pix.

Did anyone notice that short blonde lady trying to act like some kind of body guard? She would've gotten her butt kicked if she was trying to really protect a big guy like James.

28. I think this guy does this to all celebrities. He did this to few other stars to incite their wrath. He was on a news show, and there was a piece on how obnoxious he is to celebrities.

29. Oh come on people...... how on earth can those Paps say to Mr G that they are only there for that ruddy Paris Hilton? As for that Fan, he was as annoying as a boil on the bum.
