Not every Bill Cosby concert has been sold out. Roughly 1,200 people - more than 38 percent of those who had tickets to an appearance at Denver's Buell Theatre - asked for refunds for the comedian's recent performance in Colorado, according to The Denver Post. The promoter promised that everyone would be refunded. "You call up, and the initial word isn't, 'Here's your money,' so they think they're never going to get them," Aeg Live marketing director Sara Williams told the paper last week. "But they are."

Bill Cosby received a standing ovation during a comedy show in Denver over the weekend, but outside the venue attorney Gloria Allred was leading the biggest public protest to date against the comedian in light of the sexual assault allegations brought against him.

Cosby has never been charged with sexual assault, despite allegations from more than 15 women claiming they were drugged and assaulted by him.
The latest accusation is from model Chloe Goins, who claims Cosby assaulted her in Beverly Hills in 2008. Cosby's attorney issued a statement to Et, saying...
