Bill Cosby’s talent agency finally drops him

Creative Arts Agency, the agency that has represented Bill Cosby for the past three years, has finally dropped the comedian. The decision must have happened recently and comes just days after 2005 deposition, revealing that Cosby admitted to obtaining Quaaludes to give to women for sex, was made public.

The news was reported by Deadline, which called up the agency. “We do not represent him at this time,” an agent told the site.

The decision must have happened recently, as IMDbpro.com still lists CAA as Cosby’s agency as of today. Cosby joined the agency in 2012 after 48 years at the William Morris Agency.

Since last fall, over 40 women have come forward to accuse Cosby of drugging and raping them over a period of decades. Cosby’s attorneys had claimed that the allegations were not true before the deposition was published, first by the Associated Press and then other sites. Then, Walt Disney World announced last night that it is removing a bust of Cosby at the Disney’s Hollywood Studios park.

Since Monday, Cosby’s camp has only released a statement to ABC News, which said that the only reason why the 2005 lawsuit was “because it would have been embarrassing in those days to put all those women on the stand and his family had no clue. That would have been very hurtful.”
