Bill Cosby’s shows will go on, unless they get cancelled before he takes the stage. He issued a statement to fans today, insisting that he will still continue his North American comedy tour.
The statement came days after his show in Worcester, Massachusetts was cancelled and after he was heckled during his three Ontario, Canada shows last week. The CEO of the Worcester theater even said that they were “relieved” that Cosby’s promoter cancelled the show.
“Dear Fans: I have thousands of loyal, patient and courageous fans that are going to leave their homes to enjoy an evening of laughter and return home feeling wonderful. I'm ready!” Cosby said in a statement to E! News. "I thank you, the theatre staff, the event organizers and the Colorado Community for your continued support and coming to experience family, fun entertainment."
Cosby later added, “Hey, Hey, Hey -- I'm Far From Finished,” in reference to his 2013 standup special.
Cosby is set to perform in Denver at the Buell Theatre on Jan. 17 and that show will go on. However, KUSA reports that Ticketmaster will refund tickets though, for anyone who no longer wishes to attend.
The former Cosby Show star is facing accusations from over 20 women who claim that they were sexually assaulted and drugged by him. On Wednesday, model Chloe Goins met with LAPD detectives, claiming that she was assaulted by Cosby in 2008.
