Glenn Close vs. USS Enterprise

Los Angeles (CNN) -- Actress Glenn Close said she is "distraught" that her image was used in one of a series of profanity- and slur-laden videos aboard the Navy's USS Enterprise.

"The cynical, unauthorized use of my image in this video is deeply offensive and insulting, and was the result of a seemingly innocent request made during a visit to an aircraft carrier over four years ago," Close said, according to a statement from publicist Catherine Olim on Tuesday.

In the videos, Navy Capt. Owen Honors is shown cursing along with other members of his staff in an attempt to demonstrate humor. There are also anti-gay slurs, simulated sex acts, and what appear to be two female sailors in a shower together.

Excerpts from the videos and descriptions of their content were first published Saturday by The Virginian-Pilot newspaper in Norfolk, Virginia.

Really Glenn? You're "distraught"? You're in the public image with tons of grocery store magazine's taking jabs at you over the years and suddenly a officer on the USS Enterprise managed to hit your buttons?

Congrads Capt. Honors - you've received wrath from the real Enterprise now that you ruined their name sake
