Disgraced comedian Bill Cosby’s talent agency quietly dropped him last year in the wake of allegations that he drugged and raped more than two dozen women, Deadline reported Wednesday. “We do not represent him at this time,” a CAA official confirmed to Deadline. Cosby moved to CAA in 2012 after leaving the William Morris Agency, his agency for 48 years. Companies have quickly distanced themselves from Cosby after revelations that he testified to drugging women before having sex with them in a 2005 sexual-abuse lawsuit. Disney announced this week it was removing a bronze bust of Cosby from its Hollywood Studios theme park.
