Raven-Symone Calls Bill Cosby Accusations ‘Disgusting’: ‘Keep Me Outta This’

A fake story, headlined "Raven-Symone Files Molestation Charges Against Bill Cosby," reportedly claimed that the actress stated that she had been drugged and raped by her TV grandpa in the years after "The Cosby Show" ended, according to the LA Times.

Raven-Symone took to social media to slam the alleged reports that she was sexually assaulted by Bill Cosby.

"I was NOT [taken] advantage of by Mr. Cosby when I was on the Cosby show! I was practically a baby on that show and this is truly a disgusting rumor that I want no part of!," the 28-year-old wrote on Wednesday on Instagram.

She added, "Everyone on that show treated me with nothing but kindness. Now keep me out of this!"

Alleged victims of Bill Cosby, including model Janice Dickinson, have been coming forward with detailed stories about the comedian.

The 77-year-old comedian isn't only being hit with sexual assault accusations. Talk show host Wendy Williams reportedly described how Cosby allegedly tried to get her fired from a radio host job in 1990 after she mentioned rape allegations against "The Cosby Show" star on the air, according to Vice.

"Once upon a time, I worked at a radio station here in New York called 98.7 Kiss. I used to work with the morning show. I did this segment called 'Dishing the Dirt,' which is like 'Hot Topics,'" explained Williams.

She continued, "I've been doing this for a long time, but back then-it was like 1990-there was no internet. You get your information from what you see when you're out at the club or by reading the magazines. I was perusing the Enquirer magazine, and I came across an interview that they did with Dr. Cosby. Ironically, this is one of the only times he has ever spoken out about these sexual allegations, and it was to the Enquirer back then."

When Williams reportedly discussed the allegations on the air, Cosby decided to take action.

"[Cosby] demands for me to be fired, talked to the general manner in such a way that the general manager-my own boss-turned on me like a wild pit bull [and] called me into his office in the middle of the morning broadcast. Cosby's on the speakerphone. Cosby dressed me down and called me everything but a daughter of God. Now, that's my own personal account with these allegations, and this, like I said, was back in 1990," explained Williams.
