Actress Amanda Seyfried rarely speaks out in a public forum about anything – but the star has attracted attention this week for calling out a US gossip site for a rape joke.
The Mamma Mia! star was photographed while out with her dog, and the beloved pooch was seen mating with another.
TMZ’s headline read:
“Amanda Seyfried’s Dog Rapes Other Dog”, leading to a minor backlash in the comments section.
Seyfried herself also took issue with the wording – writing on her Twiter page: “@TMZ – The encounter between Finn and unnamed Labrador was consensual.”
She added:
“#dangerouswordtomakelightof #hardhittingjournalism #Pulitzer.”
