I know many of you have just been waiting to hear his side of the issues as he has been slammed with several rape allegations.
Well, the renowned comedian, Bill Cosby broke his silence in the wake of renewed rape allegations against him – to explain why he’s not talking.
In an exclusive Nov. 6 interview with the Associated Press, the legendary comedian made his first public statements on the controversy swirling around him.
“No, no we don’t answer that,” Cosby said when first asked about fellow comedian Hannibal Buress’ resurrection of accusations from several women, including former model Janice Dickinson, that he drugged and raped them.
“There’s no response. There is no comment about that. And I’ll tell you why. I think you were told I don’t want to compromise your integrity but we don’t, I don’t, talk about it,” Cosby said.
After the interview was formally completed, the still-miked 77-year-old asked the AP reporter conducting the Q&A to “scuttle” his remarks and questioned whether that segment of their conversation has any “value.”
Cosby has been criticized for refused to publicly address in detail the allegations being made against him. His attorney released a statement Sunday saying Cosby will not “dignify” them with a response. Cosby has not been charged with any crime and has denied committing any sexual assaults.
