“Seinfeld”<\/a> alum Michael Richards was seen out-and-about for the first time in two years.<\/p>\n

The reclusive ’90s star was seen embarking on a casual shopping trip at Melrose Place in West Hollywood earlier this week.<\/p>\n

Richards, 76, was spotted wearing a dark pair of pants, a dark jacket and boots during his outing. He was also wearing a pair of glasses.<\/p>\n

Richards spoke out about his “exodus” from Hollywood during an appearance on the “Today<\/a>” show in 2024. During a comedy club appearance in 2006, he made racist remarks that prompted his exit from the entertainment world.<\/p>\n

“I canceled myself out. Take an exodus. Get away from show business to see what the heck is going on inside me to have been so despicable that night, losing my cool and hurting people,” Richards said at the time.<\/p>\n

When asked how he’s grown since the 2006 incident, he said that he’s “probably more aware of myself,” and noted that “anger” was an issue for him.<\/p>\n

“Looking at it very closely, it’s something that’s always with us, certainly with me,” he said. “Not as horrible as it was 18 years ago. Anger had a hold of me.”<\/p>\n

Richards also noted that he’s apologized since the comedy club appearance and has come to terms with his actions.<\/p>\n

In 2018, Richards was diagnosed with prostate cancer<\/a>. He broke back into the entertainment world in 2024 with the release of his memoir, “Entrances and Exits.”<\/p>\n

During a discussion with Jay Leno for Interview<\/a> after the release of his memoir, Richards said he wanted to “review” his life.<\/p>\n

“Now in my 70s, having passed through a bout with cancer, I wanted to review my life, have a written account of myself for my fans and family,” he said. “I don\u2019t get out much. I\u2019m a very private man. The book has been my way of coming out and saying hello.<\/p>\n

“If I make a mistake, I\u2019ll embrace it and say, ‘OK, let\u2019s get through this,’ rather than trying to bulls— myself out of it,” Richards concluded.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
