William Henry “Bill” Cosby, Jr. (born July 12, 1937) was an American comedian, actor, author, television producer, musician and activist. A veteran stand-up performer, he got his start at various clubs, then landed a starring role in the 1960s action show, I Spy. He later starred in his own series, TheBill Cosby Show, in 1969. He was one of the major characters on the children’s television show, The Electric Company, for its first two seasons, and created the humorous educational cartoon series, Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids, about a group of young friends growing up in the city. Cosby has also acted in a number of films.
Actually, it would be more appropriate to put the phrase in quotes. "Bill Cosby Dead." Thanks to an internet hoax, Google Trends is reporting that this keyword went "volcanic" on Saturday, 6 February, just after 1 AM EST. There's no reason to despair, however, as the 72-year-old comedian is alive and kicking (as far as anybody knows). It is unclear where or why the prank originated, but fans may take comfort in knowing that the Cos is still out there, possibly wearing a bulky, multi-colored sweater, probably pulling a goofy face, and definitely making someone somewhere laugh.
