Comedian Bill Cosby continues to battle
allegations of sexual assault from more than 30 women by pretty much completely ignoring the whole thing and hoping it all blows over (again). In his latest publicity move, the 77-year-old funny man posted a rather bizarre video clip earlier today in which he is wearing what appears to be silk pajamas and talking on a 1970s-era rotary phone about his upcoming show in Wheeling, West Virginia.
During Sunday's epic SNL 40th Anniversary event, Kenan Thompson briefly popped up at Bill Cosby in the Celebrity Jeopardy skit. Norm Macdonald later revealed they originally wanted Eddie Murphy to play the part, but he turned it down... Leading to what was possibly the most unwelcome of thanks from Bill himself.
Marc Maron finally spoke out about the Bill Cosby fiasco after a bit of silence on his WTF Podcast (it's a bit ironic that Bill Cosby has refused to go on his show because of it's indecent title,) and he articulated the complicated feelings about this horrible situation. He also called up Judd Apatow to further get his take on the situation, and Judd did not mince words.
Cosby has so far avoided major interruptions during his brief Canadian tour. That streak came to an end Friday night, when several dozen women stood up in the audience and joined together in a protest chant.
One night after receiving a standing ovation, Bill Cosby shocked audience members by joking about drugging the drink of a woman who got up briefly. That's when the heckling started.
The new accusations come in the wake of the standing ovation Cosby got in Canada, during his first performance in two months. Meanwhile, his TV wife says she was misquoted when she spoke out in Cosby's defense.
Bill Cosby's wife Camille has already spoken out in support of her husband despite mounting allegations from over 30 women, and now the comedian's TV wife from The Cosby Show, Phylicia Rashad is giving her opinion about the shocking situation.
Cosby's American concert schedule has been cut roughly in half since the allegations of sexual misconduct against him became louder and more prominent. According to one of the promoters of the upcoming Canadian gigs, the venue couldn't cancel on anyone, even if it wants to. Find out why.
Judd Apatow turned his full attention and vitriol against Bill Cosby and Cosby defenders this week, unleashing a Tweet-storm for the ages. The storm broke after the New York Post published an exposé on the army of private investigators working for Cosby's legal team.
