After Jay Mohr made jokes during a standup routine about Alyssa Milano’s weight, the Mistresses star took to Twitter to offer her response.
Alyssa Milano Addresses Jay Mohr's Fat Jokes
"@jaymohr37 So sorry you felt the need to publicly fat-shame me. Be well and God Bless. Please send my love to your beautiful wife," Milano tweeted at the comic. "You're all lovely. Thank you for your kind words. #Appreciative," she later added to her followers.
What exactly did Mohr say for a laugh? “[Alyssa] was one of the presenters,” he said, referring to their joint attendance at the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Awards gala on Dec. 6 in Las Vegas. “She's very tiny, in height…It seems like she had a baby and said, ‘I don't really give a s–t'…I read it on her gut."
"Somebody sat in the director's chair and was not wearing Spanx and I was like, 'Jesus Christ,’” he added.
Mohr Apologizes For Tasteless Joke
After Milano publicly admonished his attempt at humor, Mohr was inundated on social media with general condemnation. He soon got the message that his joke hadn’t been as funny as he’d thought and offered something of an apology.
Milano, who’s been married to Hollywood agent Dave Bugliari for three years, gave birth to son Milo in August of 2011. Mohr is wedded to Las Vegas actress Nikki Cox, with whom he has a two-year-old son.
