In a recent appearance on the talk show The View, Andrew confessed that he was actually answering the many questions of his friends who wanted to know what was going on at the event after the infamous slap.

Andrew said he felt bad that Kevin Costner was introducing the director nominees in the most beautiful and elegant way and he had been responding to text messages. He added, "There's no way I'm going to be on camera during this. Everyone is texting me, asking me what the vibe in the room is, and at that moment my friends took priority over Kevin. I feel really bad about that."

When asked about the incident and his own reaction, Andrew refused to comment and said that many have already spoken about it. Meanwhile, he opened up about taking a break from acting and said, "I don't know where that came from, I'm just having a holiday."
