American actor and filmmaker Jason Momoa has found himself on the wrong side of Instagram users after taking photos at the Sistine Chapel in Italy.
Shortly after the 42-year-old actor posted photos of himself posing in front of the famous Michelangelo paintings of the chapel on May 9, displeased fans flooded his comment section with angry reactions.
Apparently, Â visitors are not allowed to take pictures in the Vatican City chapel and Momoa’s photos were taken as a sign of disrespct.
The “Aquaman” star who is currently in Rome shooting “Fast X”, the 10th instalment in the “Fast & Furious” film saga, later apologized in a video posted on his page.
He said:
“I would never want to do anything to disrespect someone’s culture. So if I did, I apologize.”
He added:
“I definitely paid to have that private moment and gave a nice donation to the church”.
The apology video which shows a  sweaty, shirtless Jason Momoa in the middle of a workout session has strangely gone viral, reaching over 3 million views in a few hours.
