Actor and comedian Mike Epps is sorry for dancing on stage with a kangaroo in front of a screaming crowd at a Detroit comedy show.
In a video of the Friday night event, Epps can be seen holding the animal's harness. A man is seen picking up the animal and carrying it around the stage.
Epps got some blowback on social media. He posted on Instagram late on Sunday that he wants to "sincerely apologise to everybody".
He says things got out of hand but he didn't mean any harm. He says he doesn't own the kangaroo and plans to donate money to a foundation to help the animals.
TMZ reported Monday that the US Department of Agriculture is investigating.
