'I wasn't actually sleeping... I was testing Google Eyelids': Morgan Freeman jokes about snoozing during TV interview

The 75-year-old veteran actor was sitting next to fellow actor, 80-year old Michael Caine during a chat with Seattle's FOX affiliate Q13, when he appeared to doze off as Caine spoke. The two were promoting their new film, "Now You See Me."

Michael Caine was answering a question when Morgan Freeman fell into a deep sleep...but woke up moments later and fully joined the early morning interview.

After the video went viral, Morgan released a statement to E! News and his facebook page.
Giving his own spin of the 'just resting my eyelids' excuse, Freeman wrote: 'Regarding my recent interview, I wasn't actually sleeping.
'I'm a beta tester for Google Eyelids and I was merely taking the opportunity to update my Facebook page.'...lol...hilarious!
