Prince Harry tells teens 'selfies are bad' on Australian tour
Prince Harry has declared "selfies are bad", during a jovial walkabout as he greeted hundreds of well-wishers who gathered to catch a glimpse of him as he arrived in Australia.
Harry agrees 'Redheads RULE!' but says selfies are bad
Prince Harry made one young fan's day when he high-fived him for bringing a banner which read: "Redheads RULE!" as he landed in Australia.
The prince arrived in Canberra to launch his four-week attachment with the Australian Defence Force, before leaving his post with the British Army in June.
Hundreds of people braved the wet weather and lined the streets to catch a glimpse of the royal - including 12-year-old Ethan Toscan.
According to fellow ginger Ethan, the prince told him that being a redhead "has to be the number one thing one person can ever be".
However, the prince was less impressed with a teenage admirer who tried to snap a selfie with him - jokingly telling her: "Seriously, you need to get out of it. I know you're young, but selfies are bad."
