No, Prince Harry Will Not Take a Selfie With You: 'Selfies Are Bad!'

Say it isn't so, Prince Harry!

He may be the best royal photobomber, but don't expect to see Prince Harry with a selfie stick.

The 30-year-old royal was asked for a selfie from a young fan on Monday outside the Australian War Memorial in Canberra, and he shockingly turned down her request.

"No, I hate selfies. Seriously, you need to get out of it (the habit), I know you're young, selfies are bad." The crowd laughed as he added, "Just take a normal photograph!"

However, one thing is OK: Bonding with fellow red heads. The prince was greeted by a 12-year-old boy who has the same hair color who made an adorable banner with the message, "Red Heads RULE!"

Prince Harry is not just in Australia to pose with his adoring fans. He's on a month-long attachment to the Australian army that will take him to Sydney, Perth and Darwin.

Harry is also in headlines as his ex-girlfriend Cressida Bonas, 26, spoke out about the "noise" that comes with dating a prince. "I'm a strong, independent woman," she told The Sunday Times

She told the publication about her life post-Harry, "But if I ever feel like, 'Oh, my life!' or get upset by silly things like a photographer, or if someone has written something nasty that's upset me, I just think, 'Worse things happen at sea.'"

And for the record, we never saw a selfie of the two of them while they were together either.
