Beverly Johnson revealed in a shocking new interview with
Vanity Fair that Bill Cosby drugged her, but she managed to thwart any further harm, unlike many of the other women with similar accusations. The event happened in the mid-80's after the supermodel went to the actor's apartment to read for a part on
The Cosby Show. The comedian insisted she drink a cappuccino from his new fancy machine, but she quickly realized his sinister motives.
"I told him I didn't drink coffee that late in the afternoon because it made getting to sleep at night more difficult. He wouldn't let it go. He insisted that his espresso machine was the best model on the market and promised I'd never tasted a cappuccino quite like this one," she told the mag.
"Now let me explain this: I was a top model during the '70s, a period when drugs flowed at parties and photo shoots like bottled water at a health spa. I'd had my fun and experimented with my fair share of mood enhancers. I knew by the second sip of the drink Cosby had given me that I'd been drugged—and drugged good," she continued. After propping herself up on Cosby, she asked him: "You are a motherf***er aren't you?"
Her anger is what ultimately saved her from further harm, as Cosby got "pissed" after she began acting out. "I recall his seething anger at my tirade and then him grabbing me by my left arm hard and yanking all 110 pounds of me down a bunch of stairs as my high heels clicked and clacked on every step. I feared my neck was going to break with the force he was using to pull me down those stairs," she recalled. The fashion icon was then shoved in a taxi by the TV star.
So how come she never decided to press charges?
"At a certain moment it became clear that I would be fighting a losing battle with a powerful man so callous he not only drugged me, but he also gave me the number to the bedroom he shared with his wife. How could I fight someone that boldly arrogant and out of touch? In the end, just like the other women, I had too much to lose to go after Bill Cosby. I had a career that would no doubt take a huge hit if I went public with my story and I certainly couldn't afford that after my costly divorce and ongoing court fees," she explained.
She's brave for telling her story!

We aren't ever gonna forget Dre now!
Forbes just released their list of the world's highest-paid musicians of 2014 -- and Dr. Dre has coming in on top, and way on top. Due to the recent sale of his company, Beats, for $3 billion, the rapper/businessman came in at $620 million, $500 million more than the No. 2 musician, Beyonce, who made $115 million in 2014.
The Eagles, who did a
History Of The Eagles tour, earned $100 million. Bon Jovi came in fourth with $82 million and Bruce Springsteen landed fifth with $81 million.
The artists under 30 who made the list were Justin Bieber ($80 million), One Direction ($75 million), Katy Perry ($40 million), Miley Cyrus ($36 million) and Lady Gaga ($33 million).
Looks like Taylor Swift just missed the Top 10. T-Swizz finished at No. 11 ($64 million).
Money, money, money!

Julia Roberts did not receive a Golden Globe nomination for her work in
The Normal Heart, but when you look this great at 47, who cares?! And yes, we had to double check her age because we can never believe it!
The actress popped up in Malibu on Wednesday, and she joked around with X17 photographers and flashed her megawatt smile after running a few errands. On Tuesday the first photo from Julia's Givenchy Spring 2015 ad campaign hit the web, and not only does she look amazing, but various websites report that she got paid around $1 million for the gig.
"She did it for the high-end luxury association and because it was beautiful imagery shot by Mert & Marcus [Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott], who are the biggest and best photographers," a source tells
E! Online, adding that it wasn't about the money. But it's definitely an added bonus...

Slim and sexy!
Kirstie Alley caught a flight out of LAX yesterday, and we almost didn't recognize her because she has lost so much weight! The actress was clad in leggings and a green coat, but her best accessory was her corgi puppy!
Her shrinking size is due to her renewed partnership with Weight Watchers, and she's living proof that the system works!

Reese Witherspoon may be the 38-year-old mother of three, but her legs look the same as they did back when she filmed
Legally Blonde -- and that was almost 15 years ago!
Reese attended the premiere of
Inherent Vice at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood last night, and she happily waved to fans and photographers. We know she got a bad rap after her disorderly conduct arrest in 2013 (you know, when she pulled the "Do you know who I am?" card on a cop and fibbed that she was pregnant), but it seems like she's totally recovered from that.
This week she earned SAG and Golden Globe Best Actress nominations for her role in
Wild, and we're willing to bet her name will be on the Oscar noms list later this winter...

No animosity here!
Most people would assume Matt Bellamy would be broken hearted after Kate Hudson called off their engagement, which X17online
EXCLUSIVELY reported first, but that's not he case! In fact, the Muse rocker is surprisingly upbeat about his fractured relationship.
"Love all of you guys! We're both very happy, it's for the best. Thanks for your kind words. Now about that new album…" he tweeted in a message to his fans.
The former pair share their 3-year-old son Bingham and plan to amicably co-parent, so it's not like he can publicly slam the actress, but we have a feeling he wishes he could tell us the whole story! Like how the mother of his child starting doing the horizontal tango with Derek Hough!

It looks like a trip to India changed her! Switching up her usual bodycon style, Paris Hilton arrived at LAX on Wednesday looking oh-so-hippie dippy as she rocked a colorful dress. Did the trip to India awaken the inner enlightened one within the heiress? Is the party girl going to be burning incense, wearing no shoes and giving up all her earthly possessions? Probably not -- but she is going to wear some loose fitting clothing -- at least for a day.
And we couldn't help but notice that there's a camera on her leather jacket (maybe it's vegan leather?!) -- is she undercover filming for a new reality show?! Or is Paris paparazzing -- the paparazzi?! Oh how sly of her!
It seems like former reality star was only in India briefly. On Monday, the celebutante wrote, "Finally after 24 hours of traveling, I've finally made it to my final destination of the trip. Pune, India. So tired & jetlagged!"
Either way, the heiress was in India earlier this week partying with Bollywood superstar Salman Khan. The 33-year-old was DJing at a private party in Pune for the birthday of businessman Balaji Rao.
Although she's home for now, it sounds like the jet-setter is going to be on the lam again. Last night, Paris tweeted, "Only been home a few hours from my trip to Inida & now packing again for my tour in Europe tomorrow. Cannes, London & Paris. Can't wait!"
What a busy, groozy girl!

Hopefully he doesn't talk like this around his kids!
If you watch
Keeping Up With The Kardashians, you know Scott Disick can be a bit of a douche at times, but he completely lost it yesterday when he brushed past an 82-year-old man on the sidewalk and screamed no less than five F-bombs at him.
As he made his way to his car with Kourtney, Scott went off:
"Excuse me man, f*ckin’ move! You’re (unintelligible) if you look at you, you old f*cker! Shut the f*ck up! I don’t give a f*ck how old he is, get away from my f*cking car!"
Our X17 videographer chatted with the guy after the profanity-laden shouting match, and he told us he's 82 years old, and while he couldn't believe what an "a**hole" Scott was, he had no hard feelings.
Between expecting his third child with Kourt and all the reports that they're headed for a split, it seems like Scott is super stressed out! Or maybe he's always this much of a jerk?
