LOS ANGELES, April 10 (UPI) -- Julia Louis-Dreyfus had some fun with outcry over the huge factual error on her nude Rolling Stone cover, which rattled history buffs this week.
American statesman John Hancock didn't sign the Constitution, though Louis-Dreyfus' faux back tattoo features his famous signature.

On Thursday, the 53-year-old Veep star said the haters had it wrong, tweeting a photo of a baby with a John Hancock "birthmark."

Louis-Dreyfus previously blamed the mistake on her Veep character's communications director Mike McLintock (Matt Walsh).
