Here's why Kit Harington avoids taking selfies with his fans

If you happen to spot Kit Harington strolling down the street, you might want to avoid asking him for a selfie.

Espcially if he's with his partner, Rose Leslie.

In a recent interview with the Guardian, the Game of Thrones star spoke about the difficulties that come with being famous.

“It makes me snappy and it makes me uncomfortable, and I turn into a grumpy person," Harington explained, referring explicitly to how he feels when someone describes him as a celebrity.

Selfies, in particular, are clearly not something he enjoys -- and he apparently now sets aside days in which he refuses to pose for them.

“But you just have to, otherwise you start feeling like a mannequin," Harington explaned. "Especially me and Rose, we never do a photo together. Because then it makes our relationship feel like… puppets... like we're a walking show."

So there you have it. If you do happen to bump into everyone's favourite White Walker-slayer, best take the old-school route and just ask for an autograph.
