TORONTO – Julia Louis-Dreyfus defended a nude photo of herself on the cover of Rolling Stone by quoting Toronto Mayor Rob Ford.

“In my defense,” she tweeted. “’I was in a drunken stupor.’”

She also attached the hashtag “#Crackexcuse” to further reference the mayor’s November admission he used crack and his explanation as to why.

“[It was] probably in one of my drunken stupors, probably approximately about a year ago,” he said at the time.

It’s not the first time the “drunken stupor” line has been the butt of a joke from celebrities or comedians.

The new issue of Rolling Stone will be released Friday, April 11.
