Julia Louis-Dreyfus Blames “Rolling Stone” Error on “Veep” Character
Published at
Rolling Stone(NEW YORK) — Julia Louis-Dreyfus has an explanation for the glaring error that appears on the new Rolling Stone cover that features her.
On the cover of the issue hitting newsstands this Friday, the Veep star appears nude, with the U.S. Constitution and John Hancock’s signature printed on her back. The only problem: the Founding Father didn’t sign the Constitution; as many Rolling Stone readers pointed out in a comments section on the magazine’s website. He put his Hancock on the Declaration of Independence.
Louis-Dreyfus addressed the mistake Wednesday on her Twitter feed with a humorous reference to her HBO comedy. She wrote, “Hancock signed Dec. of Independence NOT Constitution. Yet another Mike f***-up. Dummy.”
Mike McClintock, played by Matt Walsh, is the communications director for Louis-Dreyfus’ Vice President Selina Meyer.
A publicity director for Wenner Media, which publishes Rolling Stone, offered a different explanation to the New York Daily News: “The Declaration of the Independence is on the other side but we couldn’t fit in all the signatures.”
