Janice Dickinson made it very clear: She thinks Bill Cosby is a monster.

The model sat down this week for a CNN interview in which she described how the comedian drugged her and allegedly raped her while the stars were in Lake Tahoe together over 30 years ago.

But Jill Scott has come out as one of the few celebrities who is actually standing by Cosby, as she defended him today against Twitter followers who believe he committed many atrocities against women back in the day.

“This is insane,” Scott told a follower about the charges against Cosby, adding that there’s no “proof" he’s guilty of any sexual assault against anyone.

 

Over the past few weeks, of course, multiple women have come forward and claimed the opposite.

In all, nearly 20 alleged victims have stated Cosby took advantage of them, while various publications have admitted ways in which Cosby made deals with them in order to avoid coverage of his lewd behavior.

But Scott isn’t willing to jump to any conclusions, not considering the importance of the celebrity at the center of this scandal.

"I’m respecting a man who has done more for the image of Brown people that almost anyone EVER. From Fat Albert to the Huxtables," she wrote on Twitter.

Scott was also quick to emphasize that she is against those who lack "substantiated proof" when they set to "destroy a magnificent Legacy," while giving advice to rape victims around the world:

Rape is a despicable, cowardly crime. If you’ve been raped- plz do NOT shower, go to police IMMEDIATELY, have a rap kit done. GET EVIDENCE.

What do YOU think? Is Bill Cosby guilty of sexual assault?
