Jason Alexander, once known for his Seinfeld antics, is apologizing for a 2012 Funny or Die sketch that featured then-17-year-old Courtney Stodden — a moment he now admits was deeply inappropriate. In the sketch, Alexander made lewd comments about her body and even joked about “having his way” with her once she turned 18. Stodden, who was underage and lacked legal consent, revealed she felt objectified and exploited, with the money from the sketch going to her then-husband. She’s calling for stronger protections for minors in entertainment, demanding accountability and systemic change — a powerful reckoning that forces us to question how far we’ve come in safeguarding young people.
