Bill Cosby No Concert Cancellations The Shows Will Go On

Cosby is also scheduled to perform in Melbourne, FL on Friday to a sold out audience and that show will go on as well. A rep for the King Center for the Performing Arts tells TMZ no one has asked for a refund.

Russell Armstrong's Father Gets Death Pics To Satisfy Foul Play Suspicions
The father of the late "Real Housewives" star Russell Armstrong will finally get photographic evidence to answer the question he's been asking for 3 years ... "Was my son murdered?"
The L.A. County Coroner has agreed to turn over pics, negatives, videos and X-rays to Louie Armstrong and his lawyers ... provided they keep the evidence under wraps.
The elder Armstrong has never believed his son took his own life. Russell was in financial straits -- owing a ton of money to business associates -- so when Armstrong was found hanging from an electrical cord Aug. 15, 2011, his dad immediately suspected foul play.
The Coroner ruled the death a suicide.

Bill Cosby I'm Not Talking About Rape Allegations
Bill Cosby says he will NOT talk about the old rape allegations that are making the rounds, but his mouthpiece is taking a clear stand ... the allegations were BS then, and they're BS now.
Cosby's lawyer says, "Over the last several weeks, decade-old, discredited allegations against Mr. Cosby have resurfaced. The fact that they are being repeated does not make them true."
As we previously reported ... Comedian Hannibal Buress called Cosby out last month during a stand up set -- wondering if people remembered Bill had been accused of rape by 13 women over the years.
The lawyer adds, "Mr. Cosby does not intend to dignify these allegations with any comment. He would like to thank all his fans for the outpouring of support and assure them that, at age 77, he is doing his best work."
During an NPR segment that aired this weekend an interviewer attempted to broach the subject with Cosby ... but he turned silent and shut the interview down.
The veteran comedian was also reportedly axed from an upcoming appearance on Letterman.

Richard Simmons Friends Call BS On 'Spin' That He's OK
Richard Simmons' close friends are now mad, in addition to being extremely concerned for his welfare ... because they believe his spokesperson is shoveling crap with the story that Richard's OK.
The spokesman told the NY Daily News ... Richard is "sad" but not clinically depressed, a shut-in or a recluse.
Now extremely close friends of Richard are pissed ... saying Richard's people are not leveling. For a variety of reasons, they believe something dire has happened.
-- The last contact any of his closest friends had with him is March 10.
-- The mother of an extremely close, long-time friend died a few months back, and Richard never contacted her, which is completely out of character.
-- Richard was close with Joan Rivers and, as one friend put it, "There is no way he wouldn't have gone to her funeral if he was OK."
-- He has abandoned his exercise studio, where he was a fixture. He hasn't been there in months, and everyone there says they have no idea why.
As we reported ... one of Richard's key people told us a looming knee replacement sent him into a massive depression ... exacerbated by the death of his beloved dog. But the close friends say they don't believe knee surgery or the dog would cause Richard to cut himself off from the outside world.
As one friend said ... "If Richard is really OK and is aware people are extremely concerned about him, he'd pick up the phone and tell them to relax. But he hasn't, and we're worried sick."
