Kraft, the owner of the New England Patriots, was reading lines for a part that will be played by Owen Wilson in an upcoming movie. Alongside him was female friend Ricki Noel Lander, clad in a bikini.
“I tried to help Ricki prepare an audition tape for an upcoming Vince Vaughn/Owen Wilson comedy by reading Wilson’s lines,” Kraft said in a statement from the team. “I never intended that it would be made public and I regret that it has. I think we can all agree that Owen Wilson has nothing to worry about. I am going to stick to my day job.”
The plot revolves around a relationship between a Yahoo! executive and a stripper. In the video, Kraft spews profane language and shows off some awkward dance moves. At the end, he even faux punches a fellow “actor."
The video, first posted by Barstool Sports, has since been removed from YouTube by Fox, which owns the movie.
