NEW YORK, April 21 (UPI) -- Comedian Aries Spears, best known for his work on Fox's "MADtv," has pleaded guilty in New York to giving a woman's breast a "high five."

Spears, 32, pleaded guilty to harassment in New York Criminal Court after he hit a woman on her breast during a comedy show at the Comix club in February, the New York Daily News reported Monday.

"You can't high-five a woman's breast," Assistant District Attorney Elizabeth Pederson said in court.

Judge Dena Douglas warned Spears that he will face 15 days in jail if he harasses another woman during the next 12 months.
