Three more women on Wednesday joined the list of about 50 other women who have already come forward to accuse ace comedian and actor Bill Cosby of sexual assault
The three women - two actresses and a former airline stewardess have made their allegations public.
One of the women, former actress Linda Ridgeway Whitedeer, claimed that while waiting for a casting interview in 1971, Cosby assaulted her in an office and forced her to perform oral sex on him.
"His attack was fast, with surgical precision and surprise on his side," Whitedeer had said. "I felt Cosby's left hand gently grab my long hair behind my head, his giant frame blocked the door."
Another woman, actress Eden Tirl, claimed during the recording of "The Cosby Show" in 1989, the actor assaulted her while locked in a dressing room. He was also alleged to have repeatedly harassed her on the set, grabbing and hugging her in an intimidating manner.
The third woman, Colleen Hughes, said she met Cosby in the 1970s while working as a flight attendant and Cosby invited her to have lunch with him after they met on a flight to Los Angeles.
She claimed Cosby poured some champagne into her Gucci shoe during the meal in a Beverly Hills hotel room and she later feel asleep, only to realize she had been assaulted when she woke up hours later.
Hughes however said she confronted Cosby about the alleged assault almost a year later, and didn't tell anyone else. "I lived my whole life with a terrible secret about what Bill Cosby did to me,” she said. “I never told anyone."
The veteran actor and comedian has been accused of sexual assault by almost 50 women, many of them claiming they were drugged.
