Julia Louis-Dreyfus Curses in Front of Elmo in Leaked Sesame Street Clip

Elmo asks the actor for $5 for the swear jar.
  • A leaked clip of Julia Louis-Dreyfus cursing in front of Elmo is going viral after a Twitter user shared a clip of the foul-mouthed moment.

    The clip, originally from Sesame Street's 25th anniversary special in 1994, features an outtake of Louis-Dreyfus filming a scene with Elmo and Zoe. The Seinfeld star accidentally says the wrong name before realizing her mistake, saying, "Sh*t!"

    Still in character, Elmo responds, "She said a bad word. Five dollars," asking for $5 for the swear jar.

    "You're going to be a rich Muppet at the end of this day," jokes Louis-Dreyfus.

    Sesame Street is currently streaming on HBO Max, although the 25th anniversary special is not available on the service.
