\nJason Alexander has issued an apology to Courtney Stodden for an inappropriate 2012 Funny or Die sketch, in which the Seinfeld<\/em> actor rubbed a cellphone on Stodden\u2019s breasts when she was a mere 17.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cLooking back at the comedy sketch in which Ms. Stodden and I participated in 2012, I completely agree that it was inappropriate and I truly regret it,\u201d Alexander said in a statement shared with The Hollywood Reporter<\/em>. \u201cBut more importantly, I am deeply sorry for any harm or distress it has caused Ms. Stodden. I offer her my sincerest apologies.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tHowever, in a follow-up statement shared with THR<\/em> after Alexander\u2019s apology was widely reported on by the press, Stodden said, \u201cI appreciate Jason Alexander\u2019s public apology. People keep asking if he\u2019s apologized privately, and he hasn\u2019t. A private apology would be meaningful, but meaningful action would be even more powerful.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIf he truly regrets what happened, I\u2019d invite him to support Unchained At Last and the fight to end child marriage through AB 1267,\u201d she continued. \u201cThat\u2019s how we turn accountability into lasting change.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a Monday Instagram post, Stodden shared a photo from the sketch, where she was wearing a red bikini top and Alexander had a phone over top her breast. In the caption, she explained that she was underage when it was filmed. She wrote, \u201cJason Alexander repeatedly rubbed his phone across my breasts while saying there was \u2018no signal\u2019 in my head but \u2018plenty of signal\u2019 in my chest.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cLater in the sketch, he joked that when I turned 18 he\u2019d like to take me behind the couch and \u2018have his way\u2019 with me. IMDb credits him as one of the writers of the episode. As an adult, that fact has become harder \u2014 not easier \u2014 for me to understand,\u201d she continued. \u201cI was a minor. I didn\u2019t have the legal power to decide whether I wanted to participate. The contracts were signed by adults. The paycheck went to Doug [Hutchison]. The production moved forward. I was the only child in the room. I felt so alone.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe model wed her ex-husband The Green Mile<\/em> actor Doug Hutchison when she was 16. He was 51. In her Instagram post, she said, looking back, she questions how any adult allowed the sketch to occur. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cLooking back now, I don\u2019t see comedy. I see a 17-year-old girl whose body became part of an adult joke. People still say, \u2018You chose to be there.\u2019 Legally, I couldn\u2019t make those decisions for myself. That\u2019s the point. I can\u2019t change what happened to me but I can ask myself: How did so many adults look at a minor and decide this was acceptable?\u201d she wrote. \u201cThat\u2019s exactly why I speak out today. Children deserve laws that protect them. They shouldn\u2019t have to become adults before realizing the law should have protected them all along.\u201d<\/p>\n
