EXCLUSIVE 'I'm emotionally scarred by that man Cosby': Janice Dickinson says she's devastated at being called a liar by comic's lawyer over rape claims

Janice Dickinson has broken her silence after being called a 'liar' by Bill Cosby's lawyer following her claims that she was drugged and raped by the comic legend.

The 59-year-old former supermodel, who says Cosby attacked her in 1982, tells MailOnline she is devastated at being accused of making up the allegations by Marty Singer, who is representing the star.

After being pictured looking distraught and tired, Janice said: 'I’m emotionally scarred from that man Cosby, I have PTSD.'

She added: ‘I am having vivid dreams, my memory is coming back of that time.

'I’m really not doing well – they are calling me a liar and I just want to be able to prove to the world that this happened.’

Janice came forward last week to claim that Bill Cosby lured her to his home and then drugged and raped her. She is just one of a number of women to allege she was drugged and attacked by the star.

The ex-America's Next Top Model judge claims that Cosby, now 77, called her while she was actually in rehab.

He asked her to travel to Lake Tahoe in California, where he was performing, and says that during dinner he gave her a glass of red wine and a pill because she complained of period pains.

Janice told MailOnline she was urged to meet Cosby by her agents at the time, adding: ‘My agents were trying to make a quick buck, he was promising me a role on the Cosby Show, and said ‘I’m going to help her with her career’.

‘He gave me some kind of pill for my period that knocked me out.’

'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,' she told Entertainment Tonight, adding: 'I remember waking up with my pajamas off and there was semen in between my legs.'

She said her last memory of the night was of Cosby taking off his robe and climbing on top of her, and that the next morning she remembers 'a lot of pain'.

Janice claims she tried to tell the story in her 2002 autobiography, No Lifeguard on duty, but was stopped by her ghostwriter, who was fearful of Cosby's legal team.

However, Cosby's lawyer Marty Singer said in a statement: 'Janice (Dickinson's) story accusing Bill Cosby of rape is a complete lie. There is documentary proof that Janice Dickinson is fabricating and lying about Bill Cosby.'

But Janice told MailOnline that she has notes from the meeting in her diary from 1982 as well as more Polaroid pictures of him from their time together – and said her friends can confirm this, adding: ‘He committed sexual assault and I can back that up. My friend Liz said the other day: ‘I remember you telling me about what this guy did to you’.

‘He pestered me with calls when I was in rehab’, she added: ‘He sent me red roses in rehab – how did he get my number and know I was in rehab if he didn’t know me?'.

Janice added: ‘A lot of women are championing the cause and giving me support, but the other half want to preserve his legacy, for what?'

The ghostwriter of her book, Pablo Fenjves, said Janice told him about the attack – but admits he told her they could not print it.

He told In Touch: 'Janice told me this story years ago, when I was helping her with her first book, 'No Lifeguard on Duty.’

She told me that Bill Cosby had invited her to Tahoe to talk to her about her career, but he had other plans.

‘She shared many of the details with me, and she was visibly shaken by the memory, but I told her that we wouldn't be able to use any of it.

'I knew the lawyers at HarperCollins weren't going to risk it. 'It'll be your word against his,' I told her. 'It doesn't matter that every word is true. He's a powerful man, and he'll do whatever it takes to protect himself.'

Janice's fresh comments come as it was revealed the University of Massachusetts-Amherst has cut ties with alumnus Cosby amid allegations by women accusing him of sexual assault.

A university spokesman told the Boston Globe on Wednesday that university officials had asked Cosby to step down as an honorary co-chairman of their $300 million fundraising campaign and Cosby agreed.

Cosby received a master's degree and a doctorate in education from the university and ever since then has insisted on being called 'Dr Cosby'.

He and his wife Camille have donated several hundred thousand dollars to the university, with reports suggesting the figure to be about $500,000.

Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley sent a letter to the university urging it to cut ties with Cosby.

Coakley says while Cosby has not been criminally charged, his association sends the wrong message when the state is focused on the prevention of campus sexual assault.

'Although Mr. Cosby has not been criminally charged nor convicted for these actions ... I believe the volume and disturbing nature of these allegations has reached a point where Mr. Cosby should no longer have a formal role at UMass, nor be involved in its fundraising efforts, unless or until Mr. Cosby is able to satisfactorily respond to these allegations,' Coakley wrote.

Cosby's lawyer has called the allegations 'unsubstantiated' and 'discredited'.

On Wednesday, it was revealed that Cosby testified under oath in 2005 that he gave the National Enquirer an exclusive interview about looming sexual-assault accusations by Canadian Andrea Constand against him in exchange for the tabloid spiking a second accuser's story.

Excerpts of Cosby's deposition from a civil lawsuit filed by Miss Constand quote Cosby as saying he feared the public would believe her sexual-assault accusations if the Enquirer published similar claims by Beth Ferrier.

Both women accused Cosby of drugging and molesting them.

'Did you ever think that if Beth Ferrier's story was printed in the National Enquirer, that that would make the public believe that maybe Andrea was also telling the truth?' Cosby was asked.

'Exactly,' Cosby replied, according to court motions initially filed under seal and made available from archived federal court records.

Cosby, in the deposition, said he had a contract with the Enquirer.

'I would give them an exclusive story, my words,' Cosby said in the Sept. 29, 2005, deposition. In return, 'they would not print the story of — print Beth's story.'

Cosby still refuses to comment on allegations made by numerous women of sexual assault.
