Controversial comedian, Bill Cosby, performed his first gig amidst the sex controversies for the first time in three years on Monday night at the LaRose Jazz Club in Philadelphia. His blindness was among the issues he joked sparingly about.

While telling the audience that he “used to be” a comedian, he said “You see a blind person walking into a pole and you speak perfect English. There’s a word called ‘stop.’ Not whoa, whoa, whoa whoa.”, Nathan Frandino reports.

The audience was very welcoming this time.

Bill Cosby who denied all sexual assaults described his encounters as consensual.

He is billed to appear in court for a retrial on charges that he assaulted Andrea Constand in 2004.
