Actor Zach Braff has issued a public apology to Pharrell Williams after jokingly comparing the Grammy Award-winning songwriter to a monkey on Twitter.
The former Scrubs star was sharing his thoughts online during the prizegiving's telecast when he fired off a comment about Williams' bellhop outfit for his performance of Happy.

Many fans compared the buttoned jacket and shorts look, complete with a round hat, to the Lobby Boy costume in the Oscar-nominated movie The Grand Budapest Hotel.
But Braff went one step further and posted a side-by-side snap of the superproducer next to a screenshot of his Oz The Great And Powerful character, a cartoon monkey named Finley.
