    Bill Cosby lost his bid to overturn his sexual assault conviction Tuesday, as an appeals court upheld the verdict in the first celebrity trial of the #MeToo era.     In its ruling, the Superior Court upheld the right of prosecutors to call other accusers to bolster their case — the same issue that was fought over in pretrial hearings before movie mogul Harvey Weinstein’s sexual assault trial.    “This decision is a reminder that no one is above the law,” Andrea Constand, the victim in Cosby's case, told The Associated Press on Tuesday. Cosby’s lawyers in his appeal said the suburban Philadelphia judge had improperly allowed the five women to testify at last year’s retrial although he’d let just one woman testify at the first trial in 2017.

      NBC and Netflix have cancelled and postponed American comedian Bill Cosby's tv show respectively. "At this time we are postponing the launch of the new stand-up comedy special  Bill Cosby 77 ," Netflix said Tuesday evening in a statement.   Cosby's publicist  has reportedly said  the decision was mutual.       The special was billed as a birthday celebration for Cosby, who was expected to share "intimate and wildly entertaining stories from his childhood, first loves, and the endless adventure of parenthood." The special was shot at the San Francisco Jazz Center and was supposed to show Cosby "at the top of his craft."  US TV network NBC has also released a statement canceling cosby's  show.  In the  statement, the company confirmed the project with the 77-year-old was "no longer in development" "We can confirm that the Cosby project is no longer in development," NBC Spokesperson Rebecca Marks said.      Eve
