Voice of Elmo NEW LAWSUIT Allegations of Sex with SECOND Underage Boy


Kevin Clash -- known as the voice of Elmo -- is facing NEW allegations that he had a sexual relationship with a SECOND underage boy ... TMZ has learned.



The accuser -- who is now in his 30s -- has filed a lawsuit against Clash ... claiming the two met on a gay phone chat line back in 1993 ... when the accuser was 15 years old and Clash was 32.

Among the allegations, Singleton claims, "[Clash] trolled gay telephone chat line rooms to meet and have sex with underage boys."

In the lawsuit, filed in federal court in NYC, Singleton claims Clash "groomed [the accuser] to gain his trust by, among other things, taking him to nice dinners and giving him money."

Singleton claims while Clash was featured on "Sesame Street," he was "preying on teenage boys to satisfy his depraved sexual interests."

In the suit, Singleton claims ... although the sex occurred nearly 20 years ago, he didn't take action until now because ... he "did not become aware that he had suffered adverse psychological and emotional effects from Kevin Clash's sexual acts and conduct until 2012."

Singleton is demanding more than $5 million.

We broke the story, Clash struck a settlement with a previous accuser who initially claimed he had a sexual relationship with Kevin beginning when he was 16 years old. As part of the settlement, the accuser issued a statement recanting his claims.

I'm not 100% sure, but I remember her saying that some of her family members didn't believe her and told her not to go public with it. At the time she came forward with it, she was still in denial and thought it was "love." Some of her family members still don't believe her.

mackenzie phillips just seems completely fucked up. i remember her telling the mick jagger story and what was scary was how blase and nonchalant she was about it. like she didn't even seem to understand how messed up it was. it's sad, i'm so rooting for her to do well. i think one of the guys on a reality show she was on (celebrity rehab?) singled her out as being one of his favorites because she had a heart of gold. GO, MOLLY PHILLIPS.

(she was on a criminal minds ep recently! i hardly recognized her.)

I think the story is he took her virginity when she was like 16, and was good friends with her father.

she was telling a story of how mick jagger "seduced" her when she was 18. iirc, she and her dad and jagger were making sandwiches, and then the dad had to leave for a minute to get something. as soon as he left the apartment, jagger locked the door, turned to mackenzie, and said, "i've been waiting for this since you were 10 years old." o_O

and then her dad came back and was pounding on the door telling jagger to not do this, but mackenzie was all, "it's okay, dad, go away," and...yeah. mackenzie said that jagger was very ~sweet to her afterwards and made it sound like a run-of-the-mill seduction story, which... gurl, no.

JFC I just want to give that woman a hug. So many predator rapists in her life.

people seem to think that if you make more than one sexual assault or rape allegation, it must mean you're lying. but iirc, if you've been assaulted once before, it actually increases your chances of being assaulted again. rapists prey on that sort of vulnerability.

People have lost their damn minds in this post. All these absurd rules that if abuse victims don't conform to they must be lying.
