Let’s talk about Jerry Seinfeld. The legendary comedian is back on the road, doing what he does best—making audiences laugh with his sharp wit and unmatched humor. But it seems there’s more to this tour than just the laughs. Jerry’s bringing along his famously obsessive habits, and they’re driving his team a little crazy.
According to a source who spoke exclusively to Closer, Jerry, now 70 years old, is just as particular about cleanliness as he is about his comedy. "Jerry's not just meticulous at home; he's just as detail-oriented when he's on the road," the source revealed. "His obsession with hygiene and wellness has some of his fellow travelers rolling their eyes, but hey, you can't argue with success."

Living the Seinfeld Way on the Road
When Jerry hits the road, he doesn’t leave anything to chance. "He brings his own sterilized water bottles and an entire arsenal of 'green' cleaning supplies," the source explains. "Every surface has to be spotless before Jerry will even think about sitting down, especially in the bathroom. It’s a ritual that can take some getting used to."
But it doesn’t stop there. Since Jerry’s constantly moving from city to city, he’s also brought along a personal grooming kit that includes organic face cleansers and moisturizers, along with his own towels and pillows. And let’s not forget the hand sanitizer—Jerry uses it religiously, as if his life depends on it. "He wouldn’t touch a hotel’s toiletries with a ten-foot pole," the insider added.
Obsessive Behavior Goes Beyond Hygiene
Apparently, Jerry’s meticulous nature extends far beyond cleanliness. "He’s just as picky about his food and coffee," the source revealed. "Jerry’s quirks might make him seem like a diva, but people put up with it because he’s hilarious. At the end of the day, he’s all about making people laugh, and he’s really good at it."
While Jerry's been keeping busy—directing and starring in the comedy film Unfrosted, which hit theaters earlier this year—one of his Seinfeld co-stars is reportedly struggling to find similar success. A separate source told Closer in August that Jason Alexander, best known for playing George Costanza, is eager to reignite his Hollywood career and could use a little help from his former co-stars, especially Jerry and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
"People in the television industry have a soft spot for Jason because of his unforgettable performances on Seinfeld and his undeniable comedic talent," the source explained. "But turning that into a long-running comedy series has been a challenge. Jason's been searching for the right project for years without much luck."
The source went on to say that Jerry and Julia, now 63, haven’t done enough to help Jason, 65, get back on TV in a big way. "They have great instincts when it comes to material and writers, but Jason's too proud to ask for help from his old co-stars," the insider added. While the former co-stars remain friendly, don’t hold your breath for a reunion anytime soon.

No Plans for a Seinfeld Reboot
Rumors once swirled about a possible Seinfeld reboot, but Jerry shut those down during an interview with Extra earlier this year. When asked if fans would ever see the iconic '90s sitcom return, Jerry was blunt: "No."
In the beloved show, Jerry played a fictionalized version of himself, alongside Jason as his best friend George Costanza, Julia as his ex-girlfriend Elaine Benes, and Michael Richards as his eccentric neighbor Cosmo Kramer. While the idea of a reunion might sound tempting, it seems the original cast is content with letting Seinfeld remain a timeless classic.
