When American actress Alyssa Milano tweeted: “My sex tape was leaked. Not sure what to say. Going to post the link myself to try to control the situation,” her followers might’ve thought the star just fell in online sex scandal.

Her tweet turned out to be a joke, and her “sex” tape is actually quite educational, not about how to have the best moment in bed but rather about the Syrian civil war, which, according to Fox News “can also be sexy.”

The 40-year-old star of “Who's the Boss?” appeared stripping down while trying to record her sex tape with a man.

As the couple adjusted the camera over a bed sprinkled with rose petals, and right before they got busy, the camera shifts to a television screen with a news report about Syria.

A mirror by the television screen reflects the couple’s movements on the bed while their sound could be heard in the background.

One follower @SenPDX tweeted: “Congrats to @Alyssa_Milano on her sex tape. Totally hot. Smart IS sexy!”

The star of ABC series Mistresses has recently been active on twitter, trying to raise awareness about the civil war in Syria.

On Thursday, she tweeted: “4M+ kids are now affected by the brutal conflict in #Syria. Support @UNICEFUSA's efforts to help #ChildrenOfSyria.”

Last week, she also tweeted: “I want my son to live in a world without war.”
