Elmo Loses His Voice As Another Accuser Drops From The Sky (UPDATE)
I don't like that it took two accusations of illegal boy boning, but I am glad that Elmo can't let out another nerve-killing, soul-butchering annoying cackle for now. Elmo is temporarily mute today, because his voice box has quit this bitch and is done fisting Muppets. After 28 years of being the voice of Elmo, Kevin Clash is no longer the voice of Elmo. Sesame Street released this statement to everyone today:
Sesame Workshop's mission is to harness the educational power of media to help all children the world over reach their highest potential. Kevin Clash has helped us achieve that mission for 28 years, and none of us, especially Kevin, want anything to divert our attention from our focus on serving as a leading educational organization. Unfortunately, the controversy surrounding Kevin's personal life has become a distraction that none of us want, and he has concluded that he can no longer be effective in his job and has resigned from Sesame Street. This is a sad day for Sesame Street.
Usually, when a dude resigns from his job while in the middle of a sexo escandalo, it means that more accusers are about to come forward and another one has. 30-something Cecil Singleton, the one on the right serving up some subway-style El Debarge-ness, has gone to TMZ and showed them on the Elmo doll where Elmo tickled him when he was 15. Cecil now joins Sheldon Stephens in The Elmo's Underage Pieces Club.
Sheldon allegedly got around $125,000 to go away, but Cecil wants around $5 million. Cecil is suing Kevin Clash for $5 million, because he says he "did not become aware that he had suffered adverse psychological and emotional effects from Kevin Clash's sexual acts and conduct until 2012."
In Cecil's lawsuit, he says that he met Kevin Clash on a gay phone chat line in 1993. Cecil was 15 at the time and Kevin was 32. The two met in person and Cecil says Kevin tried to gain his trust by taking him to fancy dinners and giving him money. Cecil says that he wasn't the only one and Kevin regularly had sex with teenage boys he met on the chat line.
This mess was already a come-to-life nightmare and now it's an even bigger come-to-life nightmare, and a lot has to do with 900 numbers from the 90s being brought up. I completely blocked out the tragic memory of lying to my mom when she asked my why there was $30 worth of 1-900 charges on her phone bill. To think, I could've told her that I was just having a G-rated conversation with Elmo. UGH!
I'm sure the next accuser is going to show all of us a face-less, shirtless picture that Elmo e-mailed him after meeting in an AOL chat room. I hate Elmo even more now. Put that sucio bitch in prison and make Grover the star of Sesame Street for once and for all.
UPDATE: Cecil Singleton's lawyer apparently made a typo on the documents. Cecil says he's currently 24 years old and not in his 30s. The alleged abuse happened in 2003, not 1993. Wait, so gay phone chat lines existed in 2003?!

I'm going to peg the guy on the right as that.
WTF, sorry at that FAUGHKN AGE this SO CALLED VICTIM knows better, it's nothing more but to milk money on ELMO, i HONESTLY do not care if this guy was fondled , at a certin age people KNOW BETTER, i bet this TOOLBOX was begging for it, this kinda crap is the reason why REAL CASES are tossed out ( cuz of fake ones like this)

"I'm willing to bet that these guys were more than willing regardless."
^This They even admitted it was consensual. One has a history of hustling, the other guys supposed story of being in a chat when he was supposedly 11 or 15, whichever he thinks will get him the biggest pay day.
"Does that make it okay that Clash allegedly had sex with underage teens, no it does not but it also doesn't mean I have any sympathy for their "emotional trauma" that conveniently surfaces now."
AND THIS^These guys clearly WERE NOT victims! I do not believe these dudes were "traumatized" by Clash. There is just too much shade, backtrack and head scratching at their stories.
"I think they are doing a disservice to so many other victims of genuine sexual abuse."
And also this^ I also think the people on here actually defending these shady pieces of shit are doing a disservice to REAL victims.

These creepy ass twinks make it hard for me to feel any sympathy. Also they all seem like opportunists who can't get their stories straight. That being said, Clash should never have started sleeping with these teen grifter-types. He's in the wrong, and is now facing the consequences. My mom always says, "What you do in the dark will come out in the light." So true.

I just think it's sick to fuck or want to fuck someone half your age. Even worse when you could have borne them as your child. (That's right, I'm lookin' at YOU, Vadge!!) When the child is not of age to give legal consent, it's abuse. The adult, who is the responsible party, is supposed to know better. Just because the kid's boner works, doesn't mean he's emotionally or mentally equipped to deal with the situation. That said, you can best believe when my boy gets to be 15, some 20-something predator of either sex comes near him, I'm fucking them up.

For me the question of abuse is the issue. Clash has allegedly clearly abused his position and power (money, "star" status that impresses the easily impressionable) but I'm willing to bet that these guys were more than willing regardless.
Does that make it okay that Clash allegedly had sex with underage teens, no it does not but it also doesn't mean I have any sympathy for their "emotional trauma" that conveniently surfaces now.
Any adult that abuses a position of trust in order to have sex with underage kids deserves what they get and therefore these guys coming forward can enjoy their pay-day but I think they are doing a disservice to so many other victims of genuine sexual abuse.
Aren't you supposed to be 18 to participate in chat lines and if so, maybe he said he was 18? I'm sorry, this all seems too suspicious. I've been victimized sadly and the LAST thing I thought of was money or suing. I just can't with this.

off topic: I just saw some WTFness on TMZ about Terry Richardson making a video of Lady Caca fucking on a cake, then having a seizure in a bathtub, it's as disturbing as it sounds
On topic: sexual abuse is horrible but i get the feeling that neither of these guys felt this way until they found out he was worth some money. i can remember being 16 and dating a much older guy, i felt like it was consensual at the time, even though now I see that it probably wasnt healthy at all, i still wouldn't try and sue him, that would be ridiculous

My money is on Grover or Miss Piggy, I'm pretty sure what she was doing to Kermit was sexual abuse in the workplace.
"did not become aware that he had suffered adverse psychological and emotional effects from Kevin Clash's sexual acts and conduct until 2012."
Right, he didn't become aware of the "adverse psychological and emotional effects" until Sheldon stepped forward with his money shovel.
I'm sorry, but none of these "victims" have a sympathy factor to them whatsoever. They all have a skeeze factor that makes it hard for me to feel sorry for anyone involved. It's clearly about the hustle and money.
I know a lot of people are jumping on this bandwagon against Clash, but no one in this shitstorm is likable and easily identified as a "victim" in my opinion. Also what's an 11 year old doing on a chat line?

Didn't think I would be the only one. Ok here goes.
The correct term for an attraction to a pubescent is ephebophilia.
Teenagers of both sexes are often far more sexually mature than their calender years.
Both of these men are grifters. Dude was 15 and working a gay chat line??? Don't give me that shit that he had something go horribly wrong in his life blah blah bullshit. Most of us do and we don't sell our bits.
As a teenager I liked older men. Should I find them and sue their asses? Uhm no. Because there would be no money and my 15 minutes involved.
Should the twink I boinked for two years when I was in my 30's sue me? No again. For the same reasons.
I have always found Sesame Street vile, and this coming from a person who was made to sit and watch that pandering pile as a kid.
To see Elmo go down in a in flaming mess of Astro Glide, and spray on vinyl is okay by me.
What is not cool is an adult man trolling for underage boys. WTF?
*shudder*
Today children, the letter "G" is brought to you by the gimp box. Elmo LOVES his gimp box. (insert Elmo pitch squealing here)
PS. I thought this would also happen to Mr. Rogers, couldn't stand him either. Good thing the guy peaced out early, or the Craigs List hook ups would be rounding the lawyer's office by now.

I have always found Elmo fucking annoying. This doesn't ruin Sesame Street for me but it's beyond unfortunate. IF he is found guilty then he deserves to deal with a lot more consequence than just fines. We treat abuse of boys way too lightly, seeing it as a rite of manhood rather than what it really is.
I would really like to voice my opinion with out getting pitch forked.

Sesame Workshop said "Elmo is bigger than one person," which leads me to believe Elmo will stay on with a (hopefully) non-pedophile voice. Gotta say, hubby and I already changed the "Chicken Dance Song" to "Elmo acts like a pedo, Elmo really likes to fuck"

For the amount of time Sesame Street has been on air and how pevs have a way of getting near kids I'm actually surprised this hasn't happened before.
Actually in the laws of probability I honestly think is HAS happened before but perhaps before the Internet age and they were able to keep a story quite.
I would not be surprised if this opens the door for a little investigative work and we do in fact find out about other cases that were covered up.
I have a feeling this story is not over yet
I'm old enough that I aged-out of Sesame Street long before Elmo made an appearance, so my memories are safe.
Feck!! Another childhood memory ruined forever. Thanks a lot, Kevin Clashole!!

He obviously fucked on the other dude when he was UNDERAGE or the settlement wouldn't have been offered, accepted, then retracted in order to go after something bigger... the lawyers must think they have something that proves it... Not that it makes it right to come forward years later and bash this man publicly, it's the fact he's fuckin on teenagers while working for the number one show that is focused on children. I feel bad for the guy, but only for making poor life choices.

I can say that someone close to me was the victim of sexual abuse at the age of 10, and it wasn't until his own son reached that age that the memories of abuse came flooding back. I'm not saying that the accuser might just be looking for a pay day, but I do know that repressed memories can happen. I wouldn't be surprised if the flood gates have just opened. Sad all around.
It was the best decision to rid of Kevin from Sesame Street. Too many hungry boys are coming from the wood work and its not going to end.
