Oh Bill Cosby.....I have such fond memories of you....Fat Albert cartoons, Mr. Huxtable, and my most cherished Mr. Pudding Pop himself. What I don't have is a memory of you drugging young women then raping them when they couldn't fight back!
In recent months Bill Cosby has been accused by lots of women of first being drugged-his drug of choice was quaaludes- then being sexually assaulted. These women, who didn't know each other, had eerily similar stories. Some stated it happened in his home, others while he was promising them gigs, and best yet...while his wife was home!!
Some of these women were famous models, some were wives of his friends and some were women hoping the famous Bill Cosby would give them an acting job. All these women coming forward to tarnish his perfect reputation....and he denied denied denied.
Not anymore!! In a sworn civil deposition he admitted to acquiring the drugs with the intent to give them to young women he intended to have sex with. While he hasn't admitted to raping any of the accusers, it does a new light on the situation. First off....he acquired illegal drugs. Secondly, he admits he gave them to women he had sex with (however he later retracts that statement to say woman-as he was being accused by one woman at the time). Lastly, this was a sworn statement to attorneys.....he knew this was being recorded and used against him in the civil trial.
So what makes this story so awful? I mean he's a rapist...I say we cut his dick off and beat him over the face with it daily. But there is also this loss of an 80's icon. His image was so wholesome, all sweater wearing.....family dancing kind of Dr. Huxtable you know? To think that under all that he was a sick fuck who drugged women to make them comatose, then had his way with them? Does he like having sex with corpses? Is that it? These women couldn't fight him off, they were drugged to the point of being blacked out! He found that hot and sexy? That's a new level of sick and twisted!!
His shows have all been pulled, his reputation is done......and I've lost my taste for them pudding pops.

Sadly many comedy geniuses have this darker side to them. As with all entertainers, it is best not to confuse the character with the real person.

It's hard to separate the two, which is why I think a lot of them suffer a dark side
DeleteI remember him from Picture Pages too. It was on every morning right before it was to go to school. So many memories of a good person :(
ReplyDeleteI agree...but was he creepy the whole time?
