The actor's lawyer Marty Singer says in a statement that the former model's rape claim in a recent interview is an 'outrageous defamatory lie.'

AceShowbiz - Bill Cosby's lawyer has reacted to Janice Dickinson's claim that the comedian sexually assaulted her in 1982. Cosby's lawyer Marty Singer has sent a letter to TheWrap in which he calls the story "defamatory."

"Her new story claiming that she had been sexually assaulted is a defamatory fabrication," he said. In the letter sent on Tuesday, November 18, Singer also quoted a passage from the former model's autobiography and a 2002 interview with the New York Observer in which she said Cosby "blew her off" after dinner because she didn't sleep with him.

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight on Tuesday, Dickinson said that she and her publisher were pressured by Cosby's camp not to put the sexual assault story in her autobiography. In response to the statement, Singer said, "Neither Mr. Cosby or any of his attorneys were ever told by Harper Collins that Ms. Dickinson had supposedly planned to write that he had sexually assaulted her, and neither Mr. Cosby or any of his representatives ever communication [sic] with the publisher about any alleged rape or sexual assault about the book."

The former judge on "America's Next Top Model" previously said that the alleged assault took place in Lake Tahoe. "The next morning I woke up, and I wasn't wearing my pajamas, and I remember before I passed out that I had been sexually assaulted by this man. Before I woke up in the morning, the last thing I remember was Bill Cosby in a patchwork robe, dropping his robe and getting on top of me. And I remember a lot of pain. The next morning I remember waking up with my pajamas off and there was semen in between my legs," she claimed.
