Jason Biggs Says He Showed 11-Year-Old Son His 'American Pie' Scene to Get Ahead of Gossip

He framed the choice as a parent-led “sex talk” to control what his pre-teen hears at school.

Overview

  • Biggs disclosed the decision on the Jan. 20 episode of SiriusXM’s The Julia Cunningham Show.
  • He said he and wife Jenny Mollen wanted to manage how their son learned about the widely referenced scene.
  • A recent New York street encounter, where a stranger shouted a crude reference, reinforced their concern about what the kids might overhear.
  • Biggs said his son guessed the gist, felt embarrassed, then laughed after seeing the clip and told his dad he was a good actor.
  • The actor, 47, shares sons Sid, 11, and Lazlo, 8, and noted the scene’s enduring notoriety from the 1999 film.
