VIDEO Bill Cosby in silk pajamas assures us all he will be hilarious in Wheeling, West Virginia
Comedian Bill Cosby continues to battle allegations of sexual assault from dozens of 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 the phone about his upcoming show in Wheeling, West Virginia.
“Yes! I’m going to be in Wheeling, West Virginia, at Capital Music Hall,” Bill says excitedly. “Eight o’clock show, that’s right. And you know I’ll be hilarious. Can’t wait.”
I don’t know about you, but there’s something about Bill Cosby in pajamas talking on a 1970s-era rotary phone that makes me a little afraid. #flashback
The video comes on the heels of a statement issued by Bill Cosby a couple of weeks ago thanking fans for their support and declaring, “Hey, Hey, Hey — I’m far from finished.” Here’s the full statement:
Dear Fans: For 53 years you have given me your love, support, respect and trust. Thank you! I can’t wait to see your smiling faces and warm your hearts with a wonderful gift — LAUGHTER. I’m ready!
I thank you, the theatre staff [Heymann Performing Arts Center], the event organizers and the Lafayette Community for your continued support and coming to experience family, fun entertainment.
Hey, Hey, Hey — I’m far from finished.
Sincerely, Bill Cosby
In the spirit of comedy, feel free to offer up your captions for the photo at the top of this post, but remember you’ll need to keep it clean — we insist that our commenters not work blue.
