Bill Cosby's NOT Having Issues Locking Down Comedy Clubs for Comeback Tour Despite Reports

Disgraced sex pest Bill Cosby, 85, will still get redemption with a new comedy career as RadarOnline.com is told promoters are begging the actor — once coined "America's Dad" — to tour despite reports that say otherwise.

While rumors swirled that Cosby's grand plan was nothing more than "a pipe dream" and comedy clubs "weren't willing to book" the convicted predator, who was ordered to pay $500,000 in damages to Judy Huth after a California civil jury found she was assaulted by the comic at the Playboy Mansion in 1975 — when she was just 16, the comedian's rep told us that's not true; however, they have hit delays.

Cosby announced in December he was hitting the road for standup shows this spring and summer and promised to be "the Bill Cosby my audience knows me to be."

And he's already made moves back into the spotlight.

As RadarOnline.com reported, The Cosby Show cutup was spotted in public for the first time since he was sprung from a Pennsylvania prison on a technicality in June 2021 after serving three years behind bars for the 2004 sexual assault of Temple University exec Andrea Constand.

In the photos, the once gregarious standup relied on a cane and the shoulder of an assistant to navigate a Manhattan street. Ironically, he wore a University of South Carolina sweatshirt — even though the school's board of trustees his honorary degree.

A source close to Cosby shared that the Big Apple outing was a rare occurrence as the former actor is largely confined to his rural Massachusetts compound with his wife of 59 years, Camille.
