After years of stonewalling, Bill Cosby will speak—under oath—and on the record—again. This time, his testimony will be compelled by the manicured hands of former supermodel Janice Dickinson, who just secured the right to depose him sometime this month.

Bill Cosby has replaced prominent Hollywood lawyer Marty Singer, who has served on Cosby’s defense team for years, the New York Times reports, in two civil suits with the law firm Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan.

Janice Dickinson’s rape claim against Bill Cosby falls well outside the statute of limitations, but she may have a civil case that could get some allegations against the disgraced comedian firmly on the record.

After supermodel Beverly Johnson accused Bill Cosby of drugging her at an audition for The Cosby Show in an essay for Vanity Fair yesterday, Janice Dickinson told TMZ she's "so proud of her." Dickinson herself has accused Cosby of drugging and raping her in 1982.

A month after telling Entertainment Tonight that Bill Cosby raped her, Janice Dickinson appeared on CNN last night and recounted the 1982 night she was allegedly assaulted by the comedian in a Lake Tahoe, Ca. hotel room.

In the wake of renewed rape allegations, Bill Cosby has seen his Netflix special postponed, his planned comeback sitcom killed and reruns of The Cosby Show pulled from rotation. According to the comedian's lawyers, however, it's not Cosby that should be worried, but the journalists covering his alleged crimes.

Yesterday, some 34 years after the alleged incident took place, Janice Dickinson told Entertainment Tonight that she had been raped by Bill Cosby—but we might have known about her story a years ago had her book publisher not gotten in her way.

Janice Dickinson says Bill Cosby drugged her wine and raped her after promising to help her with her career in the 1980's, detailing the assault in a new interview with Entertainment Tonight.

Hollywood PrivacyWatch: 11/24 — At the Arclight, JANICE DICKINSON and her live-in man (?) TOMMY FRY took in a screening of Synecdoche, New York. Surprisingly, Dickinson seemed to enjoy pretty much the entire thing, her trademark cackle echoing now and then through the mostly-empty theater, usually whenever there was poo onscreen, which was often.
