There've been times when I shot off my mouth, too...usually after I've had one too many drinks. Ya wake up the next morning, hoping against hope that it was all just a bad dream and you didn't REALLY make a complete and total ass of yourself. All you can do is apologize to those you may have offended and hope they accept. Obviously, the situation is incalcuably worse when you're a celebrity or otherwise in the public eye.

All he had to do was blame it on drugs and move on....... You know, that old politically correct chestnut. "The drugs made me do it!" Preferably he smoked something a few hours before the show to blame it on, rather than his overall character and upbringing. Then go to rehab on an island somewhere for a week or two and come out washed, cured, and cleaned. This might even be quicker than apologizing for the next X years....
