Bill Cosby has spent the better part of the last two months fighting to salvage his career after numerous women have come out of the woodwork to accuse him of sexual impropriety. He has not taken direct aim often. Instead, he has hired a team of investigators to find skeletons in his accusers's closets and used his minimal time onstage to take a verbal sideways shot, but all the while Cosby seems to have thought that, eventually, it will all go away. The fact that Amy Poehler and Tina Fey fired shots at Cosby during the Golden Globes may have had a bigger impact than anyone would have imagined.TMZ caught up with Michelle Hurd, an actress from "Law & Order" who is also a Cosby accuser. She found it ironic that a steady stream of women making similar allegations about being drugged and then assaulted have at times found themselves under the media's microscope, but once two respected fellow comediennes took aim at the man who once might have been sort of their idol, things look different.Fey and Poehler roasted Cosby out in the open and in front of an international audience. There was no hesitation in their words, and by the time they finished there seemed to be little doubt of how Hollywood as a whole is now viewing Cosby. It was also a bit ironic that these direct shots were fired at Cosby in prime time and on NBC, the network that he once helped to propel to the No. 1 position with "The Cosby Show." -
Tina Fey and Amy Poehler Shock Us While George Clooney Delivers a Memorable Speech at the Golden Globe Awards
Did you tune in to the 2015 Golden Globes last night, Jan. 11? Aside from the obvious awards being handed out, there are usually a bunch of moments that, let's face it, sometimes are more memorable than anything else about the show itself. This morning there are a handful of things people are talking about, like George Clooney. First, he and new wife Amal Clooney brought some of that old Hollywood glamour to the red carpet, and then he accepted his award by praising his wife.Clooney said he has waited his whole life — all 53 years of it — to find the love he now has. Aside from being gracious, acknowledging the people in France who refuse to walk in fear, Clooney also gave hope to everyone out there who has yet to find real love.The show also started with a real kick by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, who went there — and by "there" I mean the Bill Cosby scandal. Their bit about putting "the pills in the people" sent a momentary shockwave through the room before everyone actually reacted. Is it cool to make fun of the guy who helped NBC skyrocket to No. 1 so many years ago? Is it OK for women to make sideways rape jokes? Who knows, but Fey and Poehler went there and, let's face it, Cosby was the proverbial elephant in the room until they did.There is always one F-bomb, right? Kevin Spacey dropped it last night after winning Outstanding Lead Actor for his work on "House of Cards." It was his eighth nomination and first win, so we could not really blame him for being shocked to actually be holding that trophy!Chrissy Teigen's cry face has given the Twitterverse a new meme to work with this week. She was completely overcome with happy tears when her husband John Legend won the Golden Globe for Best Song.
