Model and actress Beverly Johnson, best known as the first African-American to appear on Vogue's cover, is the latest woman to come forward alleging Bill Cosby drugged and attempted to assault her.
Johnson met Cosby in the mid-80s, when the comedian asked her to audition for a small role on The Cosby Show, she writes in Vanity Fair. While running lines at his house, she says he spiked her cappuccino. As she got woozier, she realized what was happening and yelled at him while he had his hands around her waist.
