what happened with kramer

Michael Richards, the actor who played Kramer in the TV show Seinfeld, had a racist tirade during a stand-up comedy performance at the Laugh Factory in California in 2006. The incident was caught on tape and severely damaged his career, leading to his cancellation as a celebrity. Richards apologized for his behavior on the Late Show with David Letterman and made an appearance on Jerry Seinfelds show, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, but his career never fully recovered. He had his own sitcom called The Michael Richards Show, which was canceled after just eight weeks. Richards has had several TV appearances and cameos since then, but his personal life has remained out of the spotlight.
