John Goodman is a fan of SNL vet Kristen Wiig.
And when the Roseanne star spotted the 42-year-old comedienne at a Hollywood party, he was so excited to introduce himself to her that he didn't seem to think it was a big deal to interrupt the conversation she was in.
Too bad she was not as enthusiastic about meeting the 63-year-old movie icon. As Goodman told The Howard Stern Show on Monday, the Bridesmaids beauty took one look at him and said, 'Yeah, I'll talk to you in a minute.'

Snubbed: John Goodman was given the cold shoulder by Kristen Wiig when he introduced himself to her at a party, he told Howard Stern on Monday
John - who was on Stern to promotr his new movie 10 Cloverfield Lane - told the shock jock: 'She was talking to somebody else, and I was just - I think she's so great, and the social barriers broke down and I interrupted the conversation.
'And I would just hate for somebody to do that to me. And she goes, "Yeah, I'll talk to you in a minute."'
John made the sound of a bomb dropping then continued: 'It was like the Atom. I shrunk down to Atom size. ... I really like her, and it was embarrassing, so I'll never speak to her again.'
He was dissed: Goodman, seen here in October, revealed the Bridesmaids beauty took one look at him and said, 'Yeah, I'll talk to you in a minute'
He has experience: The New Orleans native worked on the show Roseanne with Roseanne Barr in the Eighties and Nineties
Kristen last starred in Zoolander 2 and is best known for working on Saturday Night Live in 2008 and 2009. Next the New York native will work co-star with Melissa McCarthy in Ghostbusters.
Goodman also talked to Stern about working with George Clooney and Matt Damon on 2014 WWII movie The Monuments Men.
The TV icon said he never felt he fit in with the 'super A-level guys' on set.
'I tried to hang with them, but [Monuments Men co-stars] Matt [Damon] and George [Clooney] would always have these conversations, and they'd go out for cocktails afterwards and I don't really drink, and I don't bring a lot to that party because they're super A-level guys,' Goodman said.
Her first big hit: The blonde beauty, seen here with Rose Byrne as Helen, Melissa McCarthy as Megan, Maya Rudolph as Lillian, Wendi McLendon-Covey as Rita and Ellie Kemper as Becca, has been a movie star only since 2011 when she starred in Bridesmaids
He did enjoy getting to know Bill Murray on set, however, and added they took bike rides together.
Goodman did praise Brie Larson who he is filming Kong: Skull Island with in Hawaii and Australia.
'I love her. ... she is so charismatic. She would organize - she was like the only girl there, on set ... every weekend she would organize stuff to do for people. We'd go look at kangaroos and she'd organize a trip to an amusement park after they closed,' he gushed.
'Just stuff for people to do. Because she's over-sensitive about people getting nervous and angry and on each other's nerves. She's incredible.'
John addressed his recent weight loss and admitted he was just eating a lot of junk and it had to stop.
We're guessing Goodman won't buy a ticket to this film: Next up for Wiig is Ghostbustes with McCarthy, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones
'I just stopped stuffing food in [my] mouth every five minutes,' he said. 'It turns out I was just eating all the time. It was all crap. Everything. M&Ms. Just crap.'
The star said he started eating smaller portions and started using an elliptical machine at home.
And he started to lose weight because 'you have to look in the mirror every day and you say, eh, I gotta deal with this schmuck. I'm just a schmo.'
Goodman told Howard he quit drinking eight years ago.
"I got sober in L.A. and I was really worried about going home [to New Orleans] I found a good community and good support,' he said.
Before he stop drinking he admitted he would drink on set.
'I was drunk a couple of times during [The Big] Lebowski, but that was way too many for me. That was something I swore to myself I would never do - drink at work,' he said.
He said he also drank on the set of Roseanne. His drink of choice was vodka.
