John Leguizamo Apologizes for 'Hurtful Remarks' He Made About Penelope Ann Miller

John Leguizamo is apologizing his “hurtful remarks” about Carlito’s Way costar Penelope Ann Miller.

The actor, 53, tweeted his remorse on Tuesday, tagging Miller, 54, and Live with Kelly and Ryan, the morning show on which he called Miller “mean” and “evil” in April 2017.

“I made some hurtful remarks about Penelope Ann Miller in a book I wrote several years ago, and on Kelly Ripa‘s morning show last year. This was a lapse in judgment on my part because I worked with Penelope on the film Carlito’s Way and personally never had a problem with her, nor did I personally experience Penelope having any problems dealing with crew on set or otherwise. I’m sorry if I hurt Penelope,” Leguizamo wrote.

During the Live appearance, Leguizamo said the Carlito’s Way costume department in 1993 took in Miller’s clothes a centimeter each day to make her think she was gaining weight. “She was flipping out, but she was mean, she was evil, so they kept doing it,” Leguizamo recalled.

On Tuesday, Miller responded to Leguizamo’s apology, writing, “Thank you @JohnLeguizamo I really appreciate you making this apology @LiveKellyRyan @KellyRipa It truly means a great deal to me.”

In his 2006 memoir, Pimps, Hos, Playa Hatas and All the Rest of My Hollywood Friends, Leguizamo wrote about Miller and their time on Carlito’s Way, saying, “You really have to know Penelope Ann Miller to dislike her.”

That same year, he told the New York Post, “The costume person started secretly taking [Miller’s] clothes in a centimeter a day! It’s such a funny, strategic f–k-you revenge. Don’t ever f–k with the crew. However the coffee comes, I drink it. It’s too black, too bad.”
