Firth: 'Fan tried to photograph my penis'

Rex Features

Colin Firth has revealed that a fan tried to take a picture of his penis when he was using the toilet.

The actor said he was standing at a urinal during a break from watching a show in New York when he noticed a camera pointing at his genitals.

He told The Daily Show host Jon Stewart that he made a pathetic attempt to shove the camera away, adding: "It's hard to do when you're not entirely in your pants."

A US fan recently paid £4,570 to meet Firth at the London premiere of new film Mamma Mia to raise money for Oxfam.
