Timbaland Under Fire For Comments On Bill Cosby’s Release + Says Someone Will Make Song About Actor That Will Go #1

While Phylicia Rashad faces backlash for supporting Bill Cosby after his controversial release from prison, producer Timbaland is up against criticism of his own.

As previously reported, Phylicia Rashad reacted to Bill Cosby’s release on social media. He was freed yesterday (June 30th) after his conviction was overturned. He was previously found guilty of drugging and sexually assaulting a woman in his home near Philadelphia in 2004.

Phylicia Rashad later released a follow-up statement in her Instagram stories after receiving tons of criticism.

Meanwhile, Timbaland has appeared to make light of the situation. He posted (and quickly deleted) a throwback photo of Bill Cosby with the caption,

“Who wants a jello pudding pop [smiley face Emoji] I’m home now [raised hands Emojis]”

He also said in his Instagram stories that he’s convinced someone will make a song about the actor that will top the charts.
