Jonah Hill hopes other people learn from his mistake.

Over the weekend, photographers followed the 22 Jump Street actor as he and a friend strolled the streets of L.A. Hill tried to ignore the paparazzi, but eventually, the 30-year-old movie star got fed up. One cameraman repeatedly taunted Hill, saying, "I like the shorts though, bro. They are pretty sexy." The paparazzo followed Hill down a side street before giving up and telling him, "Have a good day." At that point, Hill hurled a homophobic slur at the photographer. "Suck my d--k, you f----t," he snapped.

Realizing the error of his ways, Hill apologized for his poor choice of words Tuesday on The Howard Stern Show. "This is a heartbreaking situation for me," the Wolf of Wall Street star said apologetically.

Howard Stern commented that he sounded "angry," but Hill said, "Anger is not the right word at all."
