Michael Richards reflected on his decision to leave Hollywood after exploding in anger and hurling racist slurs at hecklers during a 2006 stand-up show.
The three-time Emmy winner continued: 'Crisis managers wanted me to do damage control. But as far as I was concerned, the damage was inside of me.' Richards said that he believes his rage stemmed from his own insecurities and fears of not being accepted. While reflecting on his infamous tirade at the Laugh Factory nearly two decades ago, the 74-year-old Seinfeld star admitted he's 'not looking for a comeback' or the public's forgiveness
According to The Guardian, at the time, his two-minute tirade left the audience 'confused' and 'uncertain whether the extreme language was part of Richards' act.' 'I was a good character actor, but I was comfortable being the character, not in being me,' he reflected.
