In the wake of the resignation of the popular Sesame Street character's puppeteer, Kevin Clash, amid multiple allegations of sex with minors, the toy manufacturing giant tells The Hollywood Reporter that they will continue to make and back products based on the squeaky-voiced creature.

"We are confident that Elmo will remain an integral part of Sesame Street and that Sesame Street toys will continue to delight children for years to come." |
