Bill Cosby's Manager Claims He Was Just "Having a Good Time" with Quaaludes – But Should We Laugh or Cry?

In a stunning, if not shocking, twist, Andrew Wyatt, Bill Cosby’s former manager, has resurfaced to defend Cosby’s controversial past actions. During an appearance on“TMZ Live,”Wyatt claimed that Cosby was just“having a good time”when he gave Quaaludes to women. It’s as if Wyatt was trying to charm us back into the disco age, where a little too much partying wasn’t such a big deal. Or was it?

The comments come amidst an ongoing civil lawsuit alleging that Cosby drugged and raped Donna Motsinger in 1972. With Cosby’s recent court history still fresh in everyone’s mind, Wyatt’s statements raise eyebrows and questions about accountability. He argues that Cosby feels singled out, suggesting that other entertainers were engaging in similar behaviors at that time. Apparently, peer pressure applies even in the world of comedy and film!

What’s even wilder is that Cosby previously confessed to obtaining Quaaludes to share with women, claiming he never took the pills himself—not the best of alibis! As Wyatt pushes the antiquated idea that this was simply“the way things were”in the’70s, many might be left wondering if this is the kind of nostalgia we really want to revisit. How far we’ve come, but how little things can change when the excuses keep rolling in!
