Beverly Johnson On Revealing Cosby Allegations: ‘I Knew It Was An Important Thing To Do’
Beverly Johnson has no regrets on coming forward with her attempted assault allegations against Bill Cosby. Last month, the legendary supermodel wrote an essay in Vanity Fair where she claimed she was invited to Cosby’s home for an audition to appear on his self-titled hit sitcom in 1986. There, Beverly alleges Cosby gave her a cup of cappuccino that she charged was drugged, which she drank unknowingly. Beverly claims when the comic tried to make a move on her, she started to swear at him which prompted him to drag her down his New York brownstone apartment stairs, toss her in a cab and send her home.
