Jerry Seinfeld has spoken out about comedy legend's Bill Cosby's sexual assault allegations, saying that the situation around his comedian friend is "sad and incomprehensible" while on the red carpet for the premiere of Chris Rock's new movie "Top Five." As stars gathered for the premiere and comedian friends such as Cedric the Entertainer also expressed their worry, new allegations from three women about Cosby emerged. Speaking to "People," Seinfeld explained his reaction to the news regarding Cosby, saying, "I was very upset, very upset. Still upset. I don't know what to make of it, but it's just upsetting." "It's sad and incomprehensible," he told "Entertainment Tonight" online, which also reported on another veteran comedian, "Soul Man" star Cedric the Entertainer, calling the situation about Cosby an "unfortunate scenario," saying that "if the allegations have any truth to them, you want the truth to come out. You want justification for all the people. That's all you can really say." Read More »
