Grey's star responds to nude tape furore

'Grey's Anatomy' star Eric Dane has issued a statement through his lawyer following the leaking of a video tape online which features him, his wife Rebecca Gayheart and former Playboy model Kari Ann Peniche naked.

The actor and his wife's lawyer, Marty Singer, said of the tape: "This is simply a private, consensual moment involving a married couple, shot several years ago, which was never intended to be seen by the public."

The statement continues: "Although the participants are nude, the tape is not a 'sex tape'. It is a private tape made for only my clients' personal use, and nobody has the right to exploit it. If anyone exploits the tape, they will be violating my clients' rights and will be exposed to significant liability."

It won't stick in the memory like, say, a 'Monsters, Inc' or 'Lilo and Stitch', but 'Astro Boy' is a fairly quick 90 minutes.

Some brilliant moments but sadly, for a film about losing one's virginity, it doesn't go all the way.
