Okaaaaay…
Kaley Cuoco, who stars in The Big Bang Theory, had to issue an official apology for what has to be the most bizarre reason ever. We knew that Americans were patriotic but this takes pride in your country to a whole new level.
She was celebrating July 4th like the rest of the country when she posted an image of her three dogs to Instagram. Two were wearing stars and stripes bandanas, while the middle dog was sitting on an American flag.

Seems like a cute idea for a photo right? Well, apparently not.
People were outraged that she let one of her dogs sit on the flag and, as a result, a day later she had to issue an apology saying:
“I would like to comment on a photo I posted yesterday, that has caused lots of controversy. First off, please know, I have the utmost respect for my country. I am a proud American in every sense of the word. I understand the American flag stands for our freedom and represents American heroes , past and present.
Yesterday I made a mistake by posting the picture that was taken of my sweet dogs posing on an American flag. I sincerely apologize to anyone that has been offended by my previous post. This is no way reflects my feelings toward what the American flag represents. Living in the public eye, can be extremely difficult at times. Every mistake and every imperfection is amplified. I am not perfect. I am a proud American, today, tomorrow, always. ?”
Seriously?
Here is the post with the apology:
They would probably be outraged if they saw all the Irish flags over the Euros that were defaced with all sorts of slogans and sayings.
