Apparently Damon Wayans is Team Bill Cosby.
Wayans dropped in at Power 105.1’s The Breakfast Club on Friday to offer his thoughts on a range of topics, including the sex scandal surrounding beseiged comedian Bill Cosby.
“It’s a money hustle,” Wayans opined during the radio interview.
The former “In Living Color” star gave Cosby two snaps up, saying that he should split up with his wife Camille and then give a deposition telling the real truth … as Wayans sees it, anyway.
“If I was him, I would divorce my wife, wink-wink, give her all my money and then I would go do a deposition. I would light one of them three-hour cigars. I’d have me some wine and maybe a Quaalude and I would just go off, because I don’t believe that he was raping,” Wayans offered. “I think he was in relationships with all of them and then he was like, ‘You know what? [I’m] 78. It don’t work like that no more. I can’t get it up for any of y’all. Bye, bitches.’ And then they’re like, ‘Oh, really? Rape!’”
Wayans went on to question why the accusers were bringing their stories forth decades after the alleged assaults, theorizing that Cosby’s genitals might have wiped their memories clean.
“How big is his penis that it gives you amnesia for 40 years?” Wayans posited. “If you listen to them talk, they go, ‘Well, the first time…’ The first time? Bitch, how many times did it happen? Just listen to what they’re saying and some of them really is unrape-able. You just look at them and go, ‘You don’t want that. Get outta here.’”
Wayans ultimately suggested that the comedian was under such heavy fire because of his criticisms of black males.
“You know what Bill Cosby did wrong? He started criticizing young black men, and then he lost us, and so we’re not supporting him and they see that opening so now, you know what? ‘Attack him! Kill him!’” Wayans said. “But the dude from ‘7th Heaven,’ his show’s still on TV. Woody Allen‘s making shows and movies.’
Wayans concluded, “I just don’t believe this. It’s a money hustle.”
In recent months, Cosby has been accused of rape or sexual assault by dozens of women, with a common theme being that he allegedly drugged them beforehand.
Cosby’s attorney, Martin Singer, has denied such accusations in the past.
