Legendary comedian Bill Cosby is speaking out on-camera for the first time after dozens of women have come forth with sexual assault allegations against him.

Cosby appeared in a video, which aired exclusively today on ABC’s Good Morning America, where he’s seen wearing fuchsia pajamas and speaking on a phone about his upcoming comedy tour date.

“Yes. I’m going to be in Wheeling, West Virginia, Capital Music Hall,” he said in the 10-second video. “8 o’clock show, that’s right. And you know I’ll be hilarious. Can’t wait.”

“Dear fans, I hope you enjoy my wonderful video message filled with LAUGHTER,” he wrote to accompany the video clip. “Hey, hey, hey. I’m far from finished.”
