Things appear to be going from bad to worse for TV legend Bill Cosby.

The actor, comedian, and cultural commentator has been embroiled in a swirl of rape allegations, which though only hitting mainstream media know, actually date back to several years ago.

And while the 77-year-old has maintained innocence regarding the multitude of claims, they continue to file in.

Today being no different.

Former supermodel Janice Dickinson sat down with Entertainment Tonight to share shocking allegations of sexual assault she says was carried out on her by ‘The Cosby Show’ star.

The Band Aid 30 remake of ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas’ has been the subject of much debate since its recording over the weekend.

Indeed, for all the praise showered on the 2014 version of the track (which was first released in 1984), there has also been many who’ve branded it unnecessary and even culturally insensitive.

However, despite the back and forth, sales of the charity single (which aims to raise money for the Ebola relief effort in Africa) have proven phenomenal.

Whatever you peg them, the Smith kids – Jaden and Willow – have certainly been earning their fair share of names from spectators as of late.  The elder Smith and his bevy of memorable quotes like “how can mirrors be real if our eyes aren’t real” and “if everyone dropped out of school we’d have a more intelligent society” have earned mix review from commenters who can’t decide of the former ‘Karate Kid’ is genius or nah.

Willow, on the other hand, has made just as many headlines for her outspoken nature.  Now, it seems the duo is poised to keep the side-eyes and raised eyebrows coming via an interesting New York Times interview that’s leaving many-a-head scratched.  Read some of the quotes below:

As if the Lifetime-lent Aaliyah biopic that aired Saturday night didn’t ruffle enough feathers by itself, producer Wendy Williams’ response to the backlash didn’t exactly help.

Taking to her top-rated talk show this morning to scoff at naysayers who slammed the film’s casting and overall production, Williams was quoted saying:

“Everybody’s got an opinion.  Whether you loved or hated it, you watched [because] it was the second highest rated movie on all of cable this year so far.”
