Catherine Zeta Jones has apologised for her "crass" acceptance speech at the Tony Awards on Sunday night.
The star won the 'Best Leading Actress' prize at Radio City Music Hall for her turn in A Little Night Music on Broadway.
When picking up the gong, Zeta-Jones pointed at her husband Michael Douglas and said: "See that man there? He's a movie star and I get to sleep with him every night."
According to Sky News, she later said: "It wasn't the most elegant thing to say, was it? I was so caught up in the moment I don't think I knew what I was saying. I had no control of what was coming out of my mouth.
"Standing up there I felt speechless, but obviously I said something, but it was such a surprise that my brain didn't really connect to my mouth."
She added: "What I said about Michael was heartfelt. Although thinking about it now I can't believe I said something as crass as that.
"Boy, I could have said something worse and then I'd really be in trouble. Mind you, the problem with saying that I get to sleep with Michael every night is that it was done on television and it's on tape forever."
