BILL COSBY’s drug-and-rape scandal has caught fire again with several more women coming forward to accuse the 77-year-old comic of abuse.
Former model Heidi Thomas joins the list of women that now totals more than 30!
She claimed Cosby sexually assaulted her in Reno, Nev., in 1984 when she was a 24-year-old aspiring actress.
“I do remember waking up in his bedroom, and he’s naked,” Heidi said on Feb. 25. “He was forcing himself [on me].”
Only a few days earlier, Canadian model Linda Brown claimed Cosby drugged and assaulted her in Toronto in 1969.
The brunette said she was 21 and set up with Cosby on a dinner date. “I took a sip and blacked out,” she said. “When I awakened, I was naked in the bed beside him.”
Three other women recently claimed they, too, were assaulted. Former model Lise-Lotte Lublin said she was assaulted by Cosby in the Elvis Suite at the Hilton Hotel in Las Vegas in 1989 when she was 23.
Cindra Ladd, the wife of Hollywood producer Alan Ladd, Jr., claimed Cosby drugged and raped her in 1969.
And Helen Gumpel, an actress and former model who appeared on an episode of “The Cosby Show,” claimed the star made lewd gestures to her in the late 1980s.
Since the scandal broke, Cosby’s lawyers have repeatedly denied the accusations, which sources said could lead to a $350 million divorce.
Meanwhile the comic has declared: “Hey, hey, hey – I’m far from finished!”
In a statement before a show in Louisiana he said: “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!”
But the widow of famed comic Richard Pryor also slammed Cosby in an interview.
Jennifer Lee Pryor called him a “piece of s–t” who “f–ked everything that moved,” and blasted his wife of 51 years, Camille.
“Of course she knew,” Jennifer said. “Why is she going for the ‘okie-doke,’ as Richard would say? … I can guess why … ka-ching!”
