Comedian Bill Cosby’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was vandalized, as the comedian continues to face allegations that he sexually assaulted over a dozen women.
A viewer submitted a photo of the star to Houston’s Fox26, showing the word “rapist” written on the star several times. It is not clear when the star was damaged, but after the picture floated around social media, it was finally cleaned off.
People Magazine confirmed that it was wiped clean. One of the magazine’s writers tweeted a picture of it cleaned, although faint traces of the markings remain.
The pressure on Cosby continued to ratchet up this week, since Judy Huth is trying to take him to court over an alleged assault when she was only 15 in 1974. Cosby fired back on Thursday, asking a judge to dismiss the case.
On Wednesday, Gloria Allred held a press conference with three more women who claimed they were sexually assaulted by the once-beloved comedian.
