These Bill Cosby Comments About Phylicia Rashad Are Kind of Strange Iyana Robertson Posted December 30, 2014
Understatement alert: Bill Cosby isn’t having a great year.
As controversy surrounds the comedian in regards to his influx of rape allegations, new bits of information continue to surface. In an interview with NewsOne back in November, which was published yesterday (Dec. 29), things take a bit of a creepy turn. Initially recalling the overarching idea of his classic A Different World series, the conversation turns to his on-screen relationship with Phylicia Rashad, who played Clair Huxtable on The Cosby Show.
Leaning in to give a scoop, Cosby discusses Rashad’s then-husband ex-football player and sportscaster Ahmad Rashad. In what can only be described as strange, he says the chemistry between Cliff and Claire Huxtable was ruined by the actress’ pregnancy:
Ahmad Rashad messed up that thing. When he married her I didn’t mind, but then she got pregnant and I didn’t want Cliff and Clair to have another kid. So we had to hide her body, which took me away from — took Cliff away from – touching her and playing with her because I didn’t want the audience to see that. So when that season was over, and she went on and had the child, it was gone. Not the love for her, but it was gone in terms of, now we have to get back to the touchy – I just lost it.
We’re not sure what to make of this. Watch Bill Cosby talk Cliff and Claire Huxtable in the video above.

12687463, Strange that he places blame with Ahmad Rashad. Posted by daryloneal, Tue Dec-30-14 07:44 PM
He really resented him for their relationship.

This isn't even about the scandal. But, this is about just how creepy he comes off in that interview. Cliff is no longer America's favorite dad...he's a frakkin creep!
|
12687511, did that not create a template for Posted by sosumi, Tue Dec-30-14 09:22 PM
real life pregnant actors who were not pregnant on their shows... bunch of tv wives/moms started carrying big boxes and going away and solo trips
but yeah the huxtable cuddling was always creepy because kids did not want to think about their own parents together much less them or was that part of the white people need to see black love idea… yuck either way
|
12687512, yep that was real creepy Posted by luminous, Tue Dec-30-14 09:24 PM
especially when he leaned in and started whispering...
|
12687564, lol he acted like he was about to drop some knowledge Posted by makaveli, Tue Dec-30-14 11:26 PM
like he had some great inside story that people would be interested in and then things went downhill.
|
12687520, I'll give this benefit of the doubt Posted by atruhead, Tue Dec-30-14 09:44 PM
he could mean his respect for her becoming a mother beat out seeing her as his fictional wife
but wording it that her husband messed up their dynamic is wild and I still think he's a rapist. this just would have been less suspicious if there were no allegations
|
12687531, What in the entire fuck was THAT. Posted by Brew, Tue Dec-30-14 10:17 PM
Jesus this dood is creepy as hell. How did it take us this long to notice it.

It was just a few months ago. He was like a regular on the show and the audience loved him.
I wonder if Fallon has commented on him yet.
|
12687795, ionno man... I saw him on fallon sounding kinda crazy Posted by legsdiamond, Wed Dec-31-14 11:03 AM
It took a looooong time for him to get the audience to laugh and even then it was a lite awkward chuckle.

12687792, i'm trying to think of an angle where its OK to be mad about the tv chemistry... Posted by legsdiamond, Wed Dec-31-14 11:01 AM
like agents who get mad at actors who get married or the teen singer who gets prego...
BUT I know that dude is off his rocker so the way he says it screams creep life.

12687833, Bill Cosby is probably suffering from Dementia. Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Wed Dec-31-14 11:29 AM
In that regards he reminds me alot of my dad. The shit that comes out my pops mouth he never would have said a decade ago. Also doesn't seem to have a good take on his present situation.

12687881, i get it Posted by southphillyman, Wed Dec-31-14 12:02 PM
it's obvious at this point that he was irrationally committed to preserving the image of every character even if it impeded on the lifestyles/career moves of the actors can't say it didn't work cosby show is/was probably the pinnacle of the modern american family ideal and some people seemingly are having trouble separating bill cosby from cliff huxtable so.......
that being said it seems creepy in light of recent developments
|
12687899, uhhh he was having this problem himself Posted by imcvspl, Wed Dec-31-14 12:16 PM

12688106, people dont understand acting or performance Posted by Binlahab, Wed Dec-31-14 02:52 PM
ill try to summarize it but i doubt it will matter.
he is saying the chemistry he felt as an actor w/ his leading actress in the roles of loving husband and wife on their show...that chemistry was never the same because during and after her pregnancy he felt weird abt touching her
chemistry is something in acting you cant fake its either there or it aint
i get what hes saying and i dont loathe him @ all
does it really matter?

12688125, oh jesus fuckin christ Posted by thegodcam, Wed Dec-31-14 03:07 PM
|
12688126, There are far, far, far, far, far less creepy ways to say that shit. Posted by Brew, Wed Dec-31-14 03:08 PM
And one important omission would've been the part about fucking blaming her real life husband for doing normal human marriage things and getting his real life wife pregnant.
|
12688128, i need to create a pearl clutching machine for hoes like you. Posted by Binlahab, Wed Dec-31-14 03:11 PM
OH NOEZ! he said something in a way that makes me feel icky!
bitch grow up
does it really matter?

12688328, actually, nvm. Posted by AFKAP_of_Darkness, Thu Jan-01-15 05:04 AM
it's a brand new year... gotta waste less time getting myself into stupid arguments on OKP, so I'll reserve comment.
(but basically, I agree with Binlahab... this is just decontextualized red meat thrown to the public by a click revenue-hungry media trying to keep the feeding frenzy going)

12688416, RE: actually, nvm. Posted by Tommy-B, Thu Jan-01-15 02:16 PM

|
12688240, If Ahmad Rashad was a hood nigga he got grounds to fuck Bill up Posted by ShinobiShaw, Wed Dec-31-14 06:34 PM
So yes this is a violation either way.
|
12688244, yeah kinda but the allegations certainly make it worse Posted by makaveli, Wed Dec-31-14 06:50 PM
|
12688334, It'd still be strange, but the allegations got people adding extras. Posted by Monkey Genius, Thu Jan-01-15 08:17 AM

12688397, RE: Bill Cosby on Phylicia Rashad's marriage "Ahmad messed up that thing" Posted by TR808, Thu Jan-01-15 01:22 PM
It wasnt as creepy as I thought it was going to be . maybe I should have watched it before I read the comments....
I'll give him a pass based on what i THINK he meant.
I thought I remember there being complaints about him adding extra touches and kisses and things in as adlibs when they were not in the script... am I wrong about that?
