Introducing Kevin Clash | the man behind Elmo’s red fur

Kevin Clash – the man behind the muppet – speaks to TIME.

When you do live events with children and Elmo, do they see you?
Some of the time they do. Most of the time they don’t. But I’m telling you, they just see me holding their friend. They don’t know me from a hole in the wall and they don’t care to.

You’re that guy hanging out with Elmo.
I’m the guy holding their friend. Ever since I’ve been doing Sesame Street that’s been the case. They don’t care about us.

And if that doesn’t give you enough of a Sesame Street fix – have a look at what happened when Elmo met Ricky Gervais.
