Jimmy Kimmel Destroys Bill Cosby for Defending R. Kelly

Again in 2017, singer R. Kelly cast doubt on the handfuls of rape allegations in opposition to comic Invoice Cosby, saying in an interview, “Once you wait 70 years, 50 years, 40 years, to say one thing that straightforward, it’s unusual,” including, “You realize why I say that’s as a result of it occurred to me, and it wasn’t true.”

Now that Cosby has been released from prison after his conviction was overturned on a technicality, he has returned the favor, defending Kelly, who was finally convicted for sex crimes this week.

When Jimmy Kimmel advised his late-night viewers about Cosby’s feedback on Wednesday evening, he was met with a smattering of laughter. “Oh, it’s not a joke,” he added. Because the host defined, Cosby’s spokesperson said that the comic believes Kelly was “screwed” and “railroaded” by the justice system and that his “constitutional rights had been grossly abused.”

“And if anybody is aware of about ‘grossly abusing,’ it’s Invoice Cosby,” Kimmel joked to groans. “It’s a disgrace he canceled his comedy tour as a result of he clearly has nonetheless received it.”

Kimmel equally mocked Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) for going all-in on the #FreeBritney motion as a substitute of tackling extra substantive points in Congress.

“Since when is Ted Cruz in favor of ladies making their very own selections?” he requested. “That’s a brand new one. He’s so determined to get one celeb to love him. I imply, overlook it, Ted, even Kirstie Alley thinks you’re a dick.”
