‘Drunk Girl in Public' Actress Apologises; Actor Tells Dr. Drew He Thought It Was Comedy Skit
After the viral video titled "Drunk Girl in Public" was revealed to be a hoax, its actress Jennifo Box released a video of herself expressing her apology to all those who were offended by it.
"From the bottom of my heart, I am very, very sorry for my participation in this production and the harm it may have caused," Box said.

In the "Drunk Girl" video, which has been removed from YouTube, Box played an intoxicated girl on Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, Calif. While asking for help, she was taken advantage of by men.
The video was apparently intended to be a social experiment. It turned out, however, that the four men who try to take the drunk girl home instead of helping her find a bus stop in the video were actually actors.
One of the actors in the controversial video named Mike "Mokii" Koshak also got in trouble for his participation especially because he was wearing a hat and a shart from his employer LA Epic in the video. During his interview with Dr. Drew on the HLN show "Dr. Drew On Call," Koshak said he was working on Hollywood Boulevard when he was asked to participate in a comedy skit.
"People online were identifying me as a sexual predator. It sucks. I've walked by people and they recognise me. I hear people say, 'That's the guy!"' Koshak told Dr. Drew via HLN TV.
