Scott Caan issued an apology to TMZ for his “faggot” slur hurled as TMZ's photographers captured him leaving the Newsroom Cafe on Robertson Boulevard in West Hollywood.
Following the posting of the video, GLAAD issued a statement calling on the actor to apologize.
Said Caan in a statement to TMZ: “I am sorry for using such a derogatory word. I was being harassed by a paparazzi, and unfortunately, the word slipped out. I don't ever condone the use of that word and I deeply apologize to anyone whom I may have offended.”
Caan's publicist told GLAAD: “Mr. Caan is deeply apologetic about his actions and that we do not take this lightly.”
And, in case you have an interest in what got the actor riled up in the first place, here's Caan eating his cheeseburger.
