Bill Cosby has released a video message for his fans. The actor is promoting his upcoming Saturday show scheduled in Wheeling, West Virginia in the video.

In a short clip, the famous comedian is seen dressed in fuchsia-colored pajamas, sitting in an easy chair and talking on the phone. "You know I'll be hilarious," Cosby says. "Can't wait."

Another note ran along with the video that reads "Dear fans, I hope you enjoy my wonderful video message that's filled with laughter... Hey, hey, hey, I'm far from finished."

The video nowhere mentions anything about the sexual assault allegations, Huffington Post reported."Far From Finished" is in reference to Cosby's ongoing tour. The tour is drawing a lot of criticism and many of the shows has been cancelled.

This is the first video message released by Cosby after the allegations of sexual assault renewed against him. Almost 20 women had declared officially that the 77-year-old comedian had sexually assaulted them around a decade ago.

Although Cosby is yet not charged in any of the cases as they fall outside the statute of limitations, his reputation as American Dad has been tarnished to a great extent. The claims made by women are yet not verified by any third party authority, but a string of Cosby's shows has been canceled. One of the December show was jilted by almost hundreds of protesters who shouted slogans and flashed banners outside the venue.

Cosby has always remained mum on the issue. The famed comedian has never addressed any of the allegations raised against him yet. However, his lawyers have denied some of the allegations but have not given any response to other accusers.

 Two of the Cosby' s upcoming show planned to be held at  Warren, Ohio, and Lexington, Kentucky, has been cancelled recently while the rest of the three are on schedule.  Four of Cosby's shows last month were also cancelled.

Since the sexual assault scandal broke out, Cosby is drawing flak from fans as well as fellow comedians. Cosby is also being sued for defamation by three women and another woman has filed a civil suit against him, alleging he molested her when she was just 15 years old, National Post reported.
