Written by . Published: January 05 2014

Actress Alyssa Milano has taken the high road after Jerry Maguire star Jay Mohr appeared to poke fun at her post-baby body in a radio interview over the holidays.


The funnyman hosted the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Awards gala in Las Vegas on 6 December (13) and revealed in a festive radio chat that he was surprised by attendee Milano's look at the event.


He said, "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."


Milano, who gave birth to son Milo in August, 2011, responded in a Christmas Day (25Dec13) tweet, writing, "@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."


Mohr has since taken to Twitter to explain he meant his comments as a joke, writing, "She's (Milano) stunning. I mistakenly thought the absurdity of what I was saying would have been taken as a joke."
