The Scandal star told Variety on the A Wrinkle in Time red carpet Monday night that she didn't think Seacrest should be on the Oscars red carpet in the midst of his sexual harassment scandal. Young now says she regrets her comments because she wasn't fully informed about the controversy. "I apologize to Ryan Seacrest," she said in a statement. "He has been exonerated from the allegations I was told about on the carpet, so my opinion is different now. I just want to clarify that anyone who uses my quote going forward is using the quote of an uninformed person and fanning the flames of a non-story by making use of an unwitting accomplice. I’ve learned that ‘I don’t know’ can be a complete answer. I will do better next time."
