(AFP) - Two more women have stepped out of the shadows, Thursday to join the growing list of women who have accused TV star, Bill Cosby of sexual assault in the 1970s.
Charlotte Fox and another woman simply called Elizabeth now join about 50 women and still counting, who claim to have been sexually abused by the comedian/actor.
A former air stewardess, who did not give her real name, fought back tears to say Cosby drugged and assaulted her after taking her out for dinner and ordering a plate of lamb eyeballs.
"I will never forget it." she said. "A whole platter of eyeballs looking at me," the striking woman told a news conference at a private members club in New York.
They met on an American Airlines flight from New York to Los Angeles when she asked Cosby for an autograph.
Cosby insisted she drink, the woman said, then she slipped into a "trance-like state" similar to "being under anesthesia."
She recalled finding herself in Cosby's hotel room.
"I could barely stand up and I was either going to pass out or get very sick," she said.
"He made me kneel down. I don't want to repeat what happened next. All I know is that is was the most horrifying thing that could happen to any young woman."
She said she next remembers vomiting in his Rolls Royce.
"I apologized and the driver said I wasn't the first," said the woman, who used the pseudonym Elizabeth.
She was reportedly so ill that the captain made her take oxygen in the cockpit on the flight back to New York the next day.
The second woman, Charlotte Fox said she was working as an extra on a film set when she met Cosby, who invited her out for the evening as part of a group that ended up at the Playboy Mansion.
"We ate and drank. I became ill," she said and she remembers being in bed naked.
"I was incapacitated and couldn't say no. He engaged in sexual activity with me. It was not consensual. I was afraid to call out. He left. I didn't know where I was," she said.
Cosby has gone from megastar into a pariah over allegations of sexual misconduct spanning four decades.
