Have you noticed that in the last four months few people have come out and publicly supported Bill Cosby? As numerous women continue to come forward, telling similar stories of being drugged and sexually assaulted by the comedic legend, the closest he seems to get to support is having a former co-star vouch for the fact that they were not victimized. Instead, slowly but surely several Hollywood insiders have decided to speak up and explain why they are not surprised by the allegations. Jennifer Lee Pryor, the widow of comedian Richard Pryor, is the latest to come forward, saying Cosby is a "hypocrite" and "dirty on the inside."
During an interview broadcast on Alison Rosen's podcast, Pryor actually asked for the opportunity to address the Cosby scandal. He had worked with her husband on various occasions, and there was no love lost between the two of them.
"Richard was dirty on the outside, but he was a good person, he was clean on the inside. Bill ... f**k. Clean, oh, 'clean.' He hated Richard because Richard ... you know, 'worked dirty.' Bill worked clean, so therefore, you know ... Bill's just a f**king hypocrite, and dirty on the inside. It was a well-kept secret that Bill f**ked everything that moved. This kind of s**t that we're finding out about is beyond. I wasn't aware of this kind of business. There are people in the business who were aware of it and they're coming out now, too," explained Pryor.
As for Cosby, well, his situation is not improving. In spite of insisting that his career is not over yet, he recently canceled concert shows that were scheduled as far off as June. Cosby's attorneys are also getting ready to ask a Boston judge to throw out a defamation suit that three of his alleged victims have filed against him.
