Keshia Knight Pulliam is standing up tailing her Celebrity Apprentice terminating, and the Bill Cosby assault embarrassment, which her terminating by implication inhaled new life into. Pulliam was terminated on Celebrity Apprentice after Donald Trump censured her choice not to ring The Cosby Show patriarch for an altruistic gift.
Keshia’s group lost the opposition, a philanthropy camp trust drive, as an aftereffect of her refusal to connect Cosby, now entangled in a firestorm of assault affirmations.
The scene was recorded numerous months before that outrage broke, however her choice, and its part in her release by Trump, cast things in an altogether different light.
“I know The Cosby Show is in reruns,” said Pulliam, 35, today on Today. “Also everybody feels that we’re this family that eats each Friday night.”
“The truth was I hadn’t addressed Mr. Cosby. I felt it would be unseemly, extremely inconsiderate, to call somebody and be similar to, ‘Hey, along these lines, let me have some cash at this moment.'”
On the show, she offered a comparable clarification to Donald Trump, saying:
“So for me to get the telephone, having not conversed with [cosby] for a long time, aside from when we run into one another for an occasion … I feel that is not my spot to do.”
Trump, in vast part on the grounds that he couldn’t help contradicting this, released Pulliam, his first terminating of the new season featuring Kate Gosselin and so forth
Concerning the current charges made against her previous TV father?
“What I can say is this: I wasn’t there. Nobody was there aside from the two individuals who know precisely what happened. Whatever I can identify with is the man that I know and I adore.”
She went ahead to further address the cases made by more than 20 ladies against Cosby, including enormous names, for example, Janice Dickinson and Beverly Johnson.
“Eventually, they’re simply that, assertions,” Pulliam told NBC’s Savannah Guthrie. “You know, its all that much been played out in the court of general presumption.”
“Anyhow we’re still in America, where at last you are pure until demonstrated blameworthy. I wasn’t there. That is simply not the man I know. So I can’t identify with it.”
“The way that he’s been such a case, you can’t detract from the extraordinary that he has done,” she said, declining to toss him under the transport at all.
