Hecklers disrupt Cosby show

A tight 5: January 11

AROUND 30 hecklers disrupted Bill Cosby’s show in Canada on Friday by chanting: ‘We believe the women’. After they left the theatre in Hamilton of their own accord, a man yelled out: ‘You're a piece of shit. You rapist,’ and ejected from the venue. Cosby has not been charged in connection with any of the allegations made against him.

ACTOR and comedian Taylor Negron has died at the age of 57. He racked up more than 130 small TV and movie parts over his career including Friends, Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiam – and Fast Times At Ridgemont High. Ben Stiller said Negron, who had been suffering from cancer, was a ‘very smart, funny caring individual with a unique comedic voice’.

JAMES CORDEN’s new American chat show is to be screened in Australia too. Channel Ten has confirmed that it will continue to air to The Late Late Show once Corden takes over from Craig Ferguson in March. There has been no news yet about any British broadcaster securing the rights.
