Ever since Hannibal Buress spoke about the often-silenced rape allegations against him in his stand-up routine, the Bill Cosby scandal has seen a rapid snowball effect growth, as the comedian has had to cancel a number of public appearances due to protests against him.
For months, the Bill Cosby scandal has continued to grow as over three dozen women have spoken against him, all telling similar stories about having been drugged and then abused, including former supermodel Janice Dickinson; meanwhile, talk show hostess Kathie Lee Gifford claims Cosby once tried to kiss her, while comedienne Roseanne Barr said Cosby's behavior was a known secret in Hollywood.
Throughout the Bill Cosby scandal, the actor and comedian has kept a low profile, not speaking in public too often and altogether denying claims through his lawyers, though never him - and now he was supposedly breaking his silence on the subject, though his cryptic speech leaves doubts.
According to People Magazine, the Bill Cosby scandal has already seen 40 women speaking against him and claiming they were sexually abused by the star, who's had a wholesome image in the media for the past few decades; and the first time he was supposedly tackling the issue, he managed to dodge questions.
In a recent interview with ABC's "Good Morning America," the comedian was finally asked about the Bill Cosby scandal that has created headlines all over the world for more than six months, as GMA correspondent Linsey Davis asked the star what he would answer to young stars who think the allegations are true - in an interview that CNN has deemed "convoluted."
"I think that many of them may say, 'Well, you are a hypocrite. You say one thing, you say another,'" Cosby said to Davis, according to Yahoo. "My point is, 'OK, listen to me carefully. I'm telling you where the road is out. I'm telling you where, as you drive, you are going to go into the water. Now, you want to go here or you want to be concerned about who is giving you the message?'"
It's unclear what exactly the 77 year-old meant, but it seems to be something along the lines of "don't believe your eyes but what I tell you."
Last year, a similar scandal broke in regards to another wholesome public figure, "7th Heaven" actor Stephen Collins, who ultimately confessed to having sexually molested three underage girls in the past.
Despite the Bill Cosby scandal, there's a good chance he won't be criminally charged as some of the allegations come form as far back as the 60s, and the statutes of limitations haven't allowed prosecution.
