Comedienne Roseanne Barr is speaking out about the sexual assault allegations against Bill Cosby.

In an interview with Access Hollywood, Barr said that she was unsurprised by the allegations and that it took a man - comic Hannibal Buress - to reignite the issue for the media to cover the stories of sexual assault.

"You know, like every woman in Hollywood, there's hardly any hairdressers or waitresses or working women who don't know somebody. We've all heard it for a long time and it surprises nobody. We all know women who know somebody, if they didn't go through it themselves with Bill Cosby," Barr said.

When asked why nobody has spoken up until now, Barr said that "nobody gives a damn 'til a man says it," referring to Buress.

Barr and Cosby both had hit sitcoms in the 1980s that were produced by the same production company. Barr added that she has hope that Cosby will "make it right," though he continues to dispute the claims.

  2. Hahaha!!!
    That's one reason I never watched her show ,
    A man said it and listen at her stupid ass , she still don't believe . I learned some of my reporting from you sweetie ... write both sides of the story whether I agree or not .

    Lots of women don't come forward because people will say it was their fault [As they are doing in this case] . But I stand my ground , 'NO means NO' whether it's a rapist / boyfriend / husband .
