ELMO’s Voice: Kevin Clash,Denies Having Relationship with a Minor.

And now the man behind Sesame Street's famous ticklish muppet Elmo, Kevin Clash, is becoming known.

News is emerging that Clash, 52, has taken a leave of absence from the kids show following allegations that he had a relationship with a boy, who was 16.

The Sesame Workshop says the puppeteer denies the charges, which were first made in June by the alleged partner, who by then had turned 23.
