Sesame Street Adds Third Spanish-Speaking Character To Cast

As the U.S. continues to grow to be a “majority minority” nation, Sesame Street has added a third Spanish-speaking character to its cast, and will put a “special focus on Hispanic heritage” in the next season. “Armando” (above with bilingual puppet Rosita) will make his debut in September. The actor is 26-year-old Puerto Rico-born actor Ismael Cruz Cordova.


(Video) MLB: Matt Kemp Stops By “Sesame Street”

Matt Kemp can just do no wrong in my eyes. Lol. The Dodgers star hit up Sesame Street and did a “Word of the Day” segment with a fluttery Muppet named Abby. How cute! The episode airs tomorrow Thursday, March 28th on PBS. Check out the clip after the jump…


Kevin Clash (Voice Of Elmo) Moves To Have His Child Molestation Cases Thrown Out

In the case of Kevin Clash’s three underage sex offense charges, they might be too little too late. According to CLash he Statute of limitations deadline for sexual offense cases of this sort is six years, and all three accusers incidents occurred more than ten years ago. Clash just filed a claim to have all three cases thrown out and he wants them thrown out now. The men claim that they didn’t realize the damage that he had caused until now and that is why they are coming out against it but Clash thinks that’s just BS. I have sympathy for those that have been molested, it’s not cool. I’m sure it could take some people a long time to realize the damage that was done to them, but the law is the law.

(Video) Elmo And Friends Let’s Us Know That They Are Here To Stay!

Can we say funny!? Elmo and friends went to the Thanksgiving Day Parade and said they will NOT be bought down. We had Romney trying to cancel the show and put Big Bird all up in the middle of his politics, then poor Elmo’s name was tarnished when the Kevin Clash scandal came out. Check out the Sesame Street gang sing, “What I Am”. Drop down bottom. JaaiR (JR)


Elmo Still Getting His Shine On !!!

Don’t think that because Kevin quit Sesame Street that there isn’t another HAND for the job. Sesame Street reps says, “Elmo will be joining his Muppet friends on the Sesame Street float with an alternate puppeteer bringing him to life.” He still will be in the Thanksgiving Day Parade. You can’t stop ELMO! Drop down bottom for more. JaaiR (JR)


UPDATE! Kevin Clash Pushed To Resign!?

This may be the last update. Since the second accuser, Cecil Singleton has filed suit Kevin Clash has decided to quit his job. Sesame Street released a statement, “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.” I know this man is stressed out. Reputation means everything. #Sad. Drop down bottom for more. JaaiR (JR)
