Harvey Kindlon, the 11-year-old British boy who was snapped attempting to give Megan Fox a yellow rose at the London premiere of the Transformers sequel earlier this month, has missed an opportunity to meet his idol.

Fox subsequently apologized, claiming she didn’t see the boy, and Kodak offered a $5,000 reward to anybody who could track the child down. Harvey was later identified and flown to New York City to meet the actress after she accidentally shunned him in London.

The boy was supposed to meet Megan while she was in town to record an appearance on The Today Show on Friday, but her appearance was scrapped after the sudden death of Michael Jackson on Thursday and the star flew back to Los Angeles without meeting her young fan.

“Kodak basically put this kid on a plane on the off-chance that he’d get to meet her. They never even confirmed with ‘Today.’ Now they’re offering him around for interviews. It’s exploitative and creepy,” a source tells The New York Post PageSix.

A representative for The Today Show adds, “Harvey was never scheduled to appear and we don’t plan to have him on.”
