It's safe to say that Richard Pryor's widow, Jennifer Lee Pryor, is no fan of Bill Cosby. At all. In fact, she might hate him more than his three dozen accusers.
In a sitdown for Alison Rosen's podcast, Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend, Lee absolutely goes off on the 77-year-old comedian in epic fashion.
In light of the shocking sexual assault allegations against Cosby, Lee, who also served as a manager for Pryor, wasn't shy about sharing her insight.
"It was a well-kept secret that Bill f--ked everything that moved," she claimed.
However, "this kind of s--t that we're finding out about is beyond."
"I wasn't aware of this kind of business. There are people in the business who were aware of it," Pryor's widow adds, "and they're coming out now too."
"The condescension going on and the holier than thou. It got so over-the-top," she said of Bill's attitude, evident in his defiant, non-apologetic statements.
As for "people in the business" who knew, she didn't name names, but comics such as Roseanne Barr and Patton Oswald have also said as much.
Lee also was quick to defend her late husband Richard, no stranger to controversy himself, from any comparisons to the embattled, 77-year-old Cosby.
Yes, Richard Pryor was at times embroiled in personal and professional problems, but he's nothing like Cosby, who she says is just a terrible individual.
"Richard was dirty on the outside, but he was a good person, he was clean on the inside," she said, referencing Pryor's raunchy comedy and personal demons.
"Bill? F--k. He's a piece of shit," she added. "He's done."
"Clean, oh, 'clean.' He hated Richard because Richard ... he 'worked dirty.' Bill worked clean, so therefore, you know, Bill's just a f--king hypocrite, and dirty on the inside."
Bill Cosby asks a reporter NOT to include a portion of this interview in which he refuses to answer questions about sexual assault allegations made against him. It's a very awkward exchange.
Two more women have accused Bill Cosby of sexual assault. Carla Ferrigno and Terese Serignese both came forward independent of one another earlier today.
Another woman has come forward accusing Bill Cosby of sexual abuse. Michelle Hurd claims Cosby behaved very inappropriately toward her while she was working as a stand-in on The Cosby Show.
Janice Dickinson described an alleged sexual assault by Bill Cosby in vivid detail during a recent interview with CNN. Dickinson claims the attack occurred after a business meeting in1982.
Bill Cosby allegedly said in a brief interview that he only expects the "black media" to uphold journalistic standards in covering his sexual assault scandal.
Rosseanne Barr says she and just about every other woman in Hollywood knew about Bill Cosby and his alleged molestations for years. She isn't surprised at all, but what is surprising is what she hopes for Bill Cosby next.
Kathie Lee Gifford made a startling revelation on the Today show this morning. The TV personality stated that Bill Cosby acted inappropriately troward her while they were on tour together in the 1970s.
She also took shots at Cosby's wife Camille, calling the couple judgmental and when asked if his wife knew what her man was up to, said, "I think she had to."
Recalling an evening where she and Pryor had the couple over for dinner, Lee said she felt particularly slighted by what she felt was their air of superiority.
"Here's the perfect couple sitting right there for us to feel so ashamed. The perfect Camille, the perfect Bill. I never felt so judged and shamed in all my life."
Camille has defended Bill, as has is Cosby Show TV wife Phylicia Rashad, decrying the accusers as waging some form of conspiracy, in recent months.
Cosby has never been charged in any case regarding the accusations against him, though they just keep surfacing, one after another after another.
Most recently, former actress-model Heidi Thomas went public with a graphic tale of allegedly being plied with alcohol and raped by Cosby in 1984.
Jennifer Lee was married to Richard Pryor from 1981-82, then married the comedic legend again in 2001 until he passed away in 2005 from a heart attack.
