Everyone is cutting their ties with Bill Cosby, including the bigwigs at Disney World. People reports that park officials removed the statue of Bill in the Hollywood Studios theme park in light of recently unearthed documents from 2005 where the comedian admits to giving Quaaludes to women he wanted to sleep with.

The statue was specifically located in the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Hall of Fame Plaza, where Lucille Ball, Oprah Winfrey, Dick Clark, and Walt Disney also have statues. [New York Daily News]
