Now Kramer's actor, Michael Richards, has written an autobiography, almost 18 years after he responded to some rude audience members at the Laugh Factory club in Los Angeles with a tirade described as “pretty ugly”.

Among other things, Richards used the n-word repeatedly, after being accused of not being funny anymore. It was captured on film and published TMZ.

– Of course, I wish I had just agreed with him. “Well, I'm not very funny tonight,” he said, “Is there anything I can do – wash your car?” Instead, I was struck by the remark: “It was a hit below the belt,” Richards writes in “Ins and Outs,” according to what Reuters reported. Los Angeles Times.

There he points out that “public condemnation and humiliation is a form of justice.” Actor and comedian Kramer has rarely been seen on stage or in front of the camera since. In the press interview, Michael Richards says that he is still working on controlling his anger.

-It's irrational. We face constant challenges, and anger is at the center of that. You try to be rational all the time, but it's always irrational, always the mistake you make, where you end up dead.
