I love everything weird and colorful in this world, and I try to live a life that will make the world a little better once I'm gone.

Sesame Street Guest Appearances

Celebrities have walked down Sesame Street since the start. Sesame Street is the perfect way to see your favorite celebs let loose and show you a side of them you have maybe not seen. Some stars are just like you would expect them to be, but some may surprise you.

Some of the musical performances on Sesame Street are amazing classics that rival that of any other show. Musicians, comedians, actors, political figures, athletes. They all recognize that the entertainment and education of our children is important and with Sesame Street, they can do their part. And, with such great guests, Sesame Street has been able to entertain the adults watching with their kids.
