Bill Cosby 'wants to get back on stage' after prison release

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

After his release from prison, Bill Cosby seems to already be eying a return to stand-up comedy.

Cosby's spokesperson, Andrew Wyatt, has suggested in multiple interviews he could embark on a comedy tour after his sexual assault conviction was overturned this week, The Hollywood Reporter reports. Wyatt told Fox News that Cosby "wants to get back on stage sooner or later," and he also claims the comedian has been receiving interest from comedy club owners.

A number of promoters have called," Wyatt told Inside Edition. "Comedy club owners have called. People want to see him."

Cosby has faced allegations of sexual assault and rape from dozens of women and was convicted of sexually assaulting Andrea Constand in 2004. But the Pennsylvania Supreme Court overturned his conviction on Wednesday after finding he couldn't be charged because of an agreement he had with a previous prosecutor. Despite his spokesperson's comments, though, Variety writes that industry insiders believe there "is little chance" of Cosby making a career comeback.

[MyOwnPeace]

6. You NAILED it! - Brilliant!

[GoodRaisin]

8. No. Not unless he was white.

[jimfields33]

4. Nobody or very few

He’s allowed to do this because he’s had his conviction overturned. If it were me, I’d stay in my mansion and keep my head down. Of course I could never do the crime he’s alleged to have done.

[PortTack]

3. I hope he does and gets booed off the stage!

[XanaDUer2]

5. That takes nuts

ps one disturbing story was a woman who became semi-awake while he was forcing himself in her mouth. He was saying, " your friend wants to (ejaculate I'm assuming he used slang) again."

This is a real pos here.

[stillcool]

7. is he senile?

well, it is Fox, so whatever. Maybe they'll give him a gig.

[milestogo]

9. As long as they are allowing the audience to throw things at him, I'm all for it.

[Politicub]

10. It will be called the Rape America Great Again tour.

[RANDYWILDMAN]

11. Wow

can't he just go away and die.

He inflicted so much pain and he does not care.

[Initech]

12. I will happily boycott his shit and any venues who dare host his shit.

[Ritabert]

13. He wasn't even that funny back in his heyday

Who wants to listen to him?

[Throck]

14. A special edition if COPS?

Or will they cast him as a priest?

[moondust]

15. Still a felon.

Being let out on a technicality did not absolve him of his crimes. Just ask his 60 accusers.

Has he tried TFG's "it's all politics" ploy yet to try to minimize his crimes?

[Zeitghost]

25. His conviction was overturned

It most certainly did absolve him of his crimes (legally) and he is not a felon.

[moondust]

26. Maybe within the legal system.

The real world knows he'll always be a felon guilty of multiple crimes. Just ask his 60 accusers.

[drray23]

16. Strange. He is worth $400 millions. You would think he would just lay low

[Buckeyeblue]

27. We just got done dealing with a narcissist for 4 years

We've learned that it always has to be about them. It's the money for sure. But it's also the attention. Bill Cosby needs the attention. My guess is the guys in prison gave him plenty. Which is why he probably didn't suffer too much.

[abqtommy]

17. Wherever Bill goes now he'd be well-advised to invest some of his money in some

robust bodyguards.

[Bayard]

18. I saw him 10+ years ago

He sat in a chair on the stage, and was not very funny.

When I was a little kid, my brother brought home one of his comedy albums. It was hysterical.

But yeah--retire and think about your life now, Bill. Be glad you aren't doing it behind bars.

[XanaDUer2]

24. I used to watch his cartoon as a kid in the 70s

there was a lesson in each episode. He was raping women back then

[NCjack]

19. Maybe he do the prison circuit, with a show theme of an old comedian

who deceives and drugs ...

[tonedevil]

20. He can tour with Louis CK. /nt

[Raine]

21. Yah cause when I think of Cosby a good laugh is what comes to mind 🙄 oh please! nt

[Hekate]

22. "He is toxic," says Variety...

On Thursday, Variety reported that Hollywood is unlikely to embrace him.
“No one is going to work with him,” a talent agent told the trade. “No studio. No A-list actor or filmmaker. It would kill your reputation. Not to mention that you’d have to justify it to your friends and family. … He is toxic.”
