Alexander apologizes for 2012 sketch involving Courtney Stodden’s teen years
Jason Alexander issued an apology for a 2012 Funny or Die sketch in which Courtney Stodden, then 17, was depicted in a lewd scenario. Stodden has since spoken about not having agency in the production and noted that contracts were signed by adults while the paycheck went to her then-partner. Alexander expressed regret for any harm caused, while Stodden continues to advocate against child marriage and exploitation in media, calling for stronger protections for minors.
