Sopranos star, James Gandolfini, has been caught on camera delivering a knuckle sandwich direct to a fan's face at JFK airport.
According to the Daily Mail website, Gandolfini lashed out after the fan got too close in an attempt to obtain his autograph.
The paper reports
The star was caught in an altercation at JFK airport yesterday after being pursued by an overzealous autograph hunter who declared himself a big fan of the actor.The affection was clearly not mutual, with an irritated Gandolfini grabbing the man by his collar and punching him, claiming he came to close to his girlfriend Deborah Lin.
The fan said: "I'm just trying to find out how to be a Soprano."
Gandolfini responded: "Well, that's how you do it."
With the fan declaring he "didn't want to get whacked," the 46-year-old star eventually had a change of heart - he ended the encounter with a handshake and even posed for a photograph.
Phew.
Apparently, Gandolfini had just flown in from Los Angeles after attending the Screen Actors Guild Awards.
