NEW YORK, July 8 (UPI) -- Before Raven-Symoné forms an opinion on Bill Cosby's sex scandal she wanted there to be proof and now there is.

Since the 77-year-old actor admitted on Monday that he gave Quaaludes to a woman before having sex with her, Raven-Symoné said, "now there are real facts."

During Tuesday's episode of The View, Whoopi Goldberg addressed the news and asked the panel whether they think the actor is guilty or not for all the other charges.

Raven-Symoné, who had a close relationship with Cosby since working with him on The Cosby Show, said: "I don't really like to talk about it that much because he's the reason I'm on this panel in the first place. He gave me my first job. But at the same time, you need the proof, and then I'll be able to give my judgment here or there."

Back in November, the 29-year-old responded to a rumor that she had been one of the women Cosby had victimized.

She wrote on Instagram: "I was NOT taking advantage of by Mr. Cosby when I was on the Cosby Show! I was practically a baby on that show and this is truly a disgusting rumor that I want no part of! Everyone on that show treated me with nothing but kindness. Now keep me out of this!"
