KEY POINTS:
His obsessively clean fictional self would have hated it, but American comedian Jerry Seinfeld was more than happy to press the flesh with hundreds of fans in Sydney.
The creator and star of the self-titled "show about nothing" flew into the country yesterday for the Australian premiere of his new animated film, Bee Movie.
After being escorted down Market Street, in Sydney's CBD, by a swarm of yellow and black scooters, Seinfeld stopped traffic to meet crowds of screaming fans outside the State Theatre.
The film has already taken US$94 million ($125.2 million) at the US box office.
