Elmo Is Off The Hook
The 23-year-old dude who said that he had illegal sex with Kevin Clash, the voice of Elmo, when he was only 16 has taken everything back and is like, "Just kidding!" Just a day after TMZ said that Kevin Clash temporarily moved out of Sesame Street and is taking a leave of absence to deal with this foolery, the accuser's lawyer issued a statement to The Los Angeles Times and wants everybody to wipe away the images of Elmo laughing something extra while getting tickled by underaged boys.
“He wants it to be known that his sexual relationship with Mr. Clash was an adult consensual relationship. He will have no further comment on the matter.”
Kevin said from the beginning that he wet humped on his accuser, but his accuser was legal at the time and it was completely consensual. Kevin released his own statement and said that he's glad it's all over. No word on when he will get to stick his hand up Elmo again.
Before you start thinking that the accuser got a little visit from the Sesame Street Mafia (Snuffleupagus, Count Von Count, Rosita and Telly Monster), TMZ is hearing that he might've been paid off. TMZ's sources (aka those Elmo-hating hillbilly Muppets at Fraggle Rock) say that the accuser's lawyer and Kevin's lawyer met today to talk about money. Apparently, Kevin Clash put a 6-figure settlement on the table.
Isn't it funny how you magically get your memory back after sniffing a bunch of cash stuffed into a Big Bird suitcase? The scent of cash really is truth perfume (or lie perfume, depending on the situation). And I bet Oscar the Grouch is happy. Elmo's gay sex scandal has taken the attention away from the dick hole he's got in the back of his trash can. Yeah, so that's why Big Bird is always standing behind Oscar's trash can.

I agree with you. They both said it was a consensual relationship. Women go with old men allll of the time because of the benefits. I don't see this as any different.

There are way more old geezers who go around preying on young kids. Clash is a disgusting old man for fucking a teenager that was underage.

I thought perhaps Clash might have a chance as his reputation from what I understand was solid before this and I thought perhaps his people might be able to spin it as a shakedown and therefore save him but from what I'm reading here that doesn't seem likely

Even the law says at 18 you legally know what the fuck is up and are capable of making your own decisions. And that hardly screams like the decision of manipulated

----------------------------------------
I'm not the part of the group who is saying the victim is being a manipulative, greedy individual. Nor am I siding trying with an old geezer who in his mid 40s was fucking a teenager. The victim only recanted as per the settlement. He was pretty clear he was 16. The fact remains that you have a middle-aged geezer fucking a teenager. If he was really being conned, he wouldn't have paid. The geezer wanted to make sure that no more of his dirty laundry was aired out.
The same was said of all the Sandusky victims a d that high profile case involving the basketball coach. Only when faced with Indisputable evidence was something done. It's disgusting how easy it is to accuse the victims.
I can't stand Harvey Levin. He tries so hard to act young and hip; he's pathetic. He used to be a respected lawyer and legal commentator. WTF happened to him?

The franchise certainly wants no part of it, the guy was most likely intimidated to back down and paid off. The timing of his coming forward is no indicator of what happened either. Putting aside that Nash is Elmo, "adult consensual relationship"? I'm inclined to say, a 45 y.o. person should not be sexing on a teenager. It's sad all around.

Too bad Clash's SWorkshop money is going to dry up now that he's shelled out all that money.
If there is one thing I can't stand it's a hustler.
Sure Clash may be out of line, but if this gay was really so damaged why didn't he go to the cops? and if he was being abused why didn't he report it whilst it was happening?. Sounds like Clash was showering him with a little cash and a few gifts and when it stopped bitch wasn't having it so he tried the old #Getmoneybitch scheme. Take note Joe Simpson, don't burn a twink, they will come back and bite your nutsack.
Ugh,i don't get this story at all. If the accuser was of legal age then why did Mr.Elmo pay him off? Maybe I do understamd and that is what makes me sad. He should of come out.saying "hell yes,i am a gay man,you got a problem with that?!"..and spun it in more of a " yes, gay people can be puppeteers too and I wont stand for this hate"..yes its kinda gross to me that he was attracted to someone so young but who has not done something incredibly stupid when horney,i mean come on,really?!..i wonder if the accuser had someother info he was threatening to make public,some sex kink he knew would tarnish him forever,more than just the initial blabbing.

As I said I tend to think he did pedo an underage kid and don't think for a second he deserves anything but getting fired I just thought maybe it might play out and get spun as an "incident" but as you suggest that just ain't going to happen is it.
TMZ pisses me off sometimes. They don't fact check, they get a scoop from a "$ource" and they run a story. And it doesn't make sense to assume that the "accuser" was paid off cause if he had been there would have been an IRON CLAD non-disclosure agreement and the talk of a payout would have never come up. A first year law student would make sure that happened; you talk in any way, you get nothing. Remember when Rachel Uchitel talked about Tiger Woods after her payout and she had to give the money back? They even took her new NYC condo to recover all the money.
Seems like the kid went looking for a payout, didn't get one, and got one last payout from TMZ.

This story kind of makes me sad. I watched Being Elmo recently and was actually fascinated how Kevin Clash got his start. He also came off as a sweet spirited man who is genuinely passionate about what he does. I don't want to think of him as some type of teen sex predator. Statutory rape or not, a 50 year old man has NO business fucking an 18-19 year old or whatever. This also goes to show you that people aren't always what they seem. O_o

If only the guy who extorted Letterman had hired a extortionist lawyer he wouldn't have done the jail time. This guy extorted Kevin to get cash and when he got a lawyer, who went to the media.. Not the law..Elmo had to pay.. Gloria Allred has now made extortion legal.

The guy who did that to Letterman was STOOPID. Letterman already had a reputation and wasn't catering to kids. On top of all that, the chick was nearly 30 and dumping the extortionist's ass. That would be like one of Sheen's "goddesses" trying to extort him for blow. Just all around dumb on that guy.
By the way, this happened to John Stamos too with some chick saying she was 17. He went to the FBI. See Stamos knew he hadn't done anything wrong so he fixed that right up.
It is hard for me to feel sympathetic to anyone in this story. And I don't know where the truth lies. It's probably somewhere in the middle.

Foxxy, I don't disagree, I just think the reality of it is shitty.
I hate to sound as if I'm blaming the victim. But after all this time having passed, and no involvement of the police, and the relationship being established as consensual, this just seems like a shake-down.

But I will still throw a MYRIAD of side-eyes at Elmo's main hole-puncher for being nearly THREE TIMES that boy's age when this happened because seriously, consensual or not, WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH HIM?
To be 45 years old and having sex with someone who is not even 18, definitely falling under the umbrella of "pubescent", and definitely young enough to be his son?

If the guy was 18, he is considered a legal adult by law. Even legally it's not "sex abuse" unless it was forced, and I don't think it was. Despite the age declination between Kevin and this guy, he was of legal age. teen or not, the law saw him responsible for his actions, meaning he was of legal age to consent. Just because he was/is young doesn't mean he doesn't have the ability to greedy and manipulative.

IF the guy was 18, he claimed to be 16. A 40 something pervert putting the moves on a teenager has the upper hand on being a manipulative sexual abuser. What the hell is he doing fucking a teenager?

I honestly think that 18 is a bit too old for the age of consent. I know many, many people will feel this is just terrible. But, I really think that some people can be emotionally and intellectually prepared for a sexual relationship before then even if it is with someone a bit older. It would be great if the system allowed more for case by case examination- If the older party has some power, authority or control over the younger party etc.

I think they are hoping this will die down quicker than a long drawn out gossip site sensationalised coverage.
He may have a chance depending on how it plays out over the next few days but If they fought it regardless of him being proven innocent by that time he would most definitely be done. JMO anyway.
the accuser needs to be prosecuted for filing a false report
