Katherine McKee alleges Cosby raped her in a Michigan hotel room in the early 1970s when she was on tour with Davis.
She joins more than 20 other women who have accused the comedian known as Americas Dad of sexual assault.
McKee, an actress and former Vegas showgirl, said she partied regularly with Davis notorious Rat Pack in the late 1960s and had known Cosby for eight years when the alleged assault took place.
Back then, I was Sammys road wife. He had an open marriage, and we were lovers. Thats how it went, McKee told the Daily News, talking about the alleged sexual assault for the first time.
She said Cosby, 77, ambushed her out of the blue one night after she decided to extend her stay around a Detroit gig so she could visit family. Cosby was in town too and invited her to a party on a boat, she said.
He was a buddy. He knew I was Sammys girl, she said about accepting the invitation.
McKee, now 65, said Cosby asked her to get some ribs from local hotspot Checker Bar-B-Q and then pick him up at his hotel.
I remember I walked in the door, and he had a robe and cap on. He took the ribs from my hands and just grabbed me, McKee said of Cosby.
He spun me around, pulled my panties down, and just took it. We were still standing at the door when he attacked me, she told The News. It was so fast and so shocking and so unbelievable, she said.
To me, there was a different personality involved. He was a different man. It felt like a different person performing that act.
McKee said she quickly fled to the bathroom to compose herself. Cosby got dressed, and the two shared an icy silence in the elevator down to the lobby, where someone was waiting to escort them to the boat party.
I never said a word. I was too uncomfortable about it, she recalled.
Bill was so rude and cold toward me the rest of the night. I thought, When this boat docks, I'm out of here. I just left.
McKee said she never uttered a peep to Davis about what allegedly happened.
I didnt want to put that in Sammys head, McKee said.
I was mad at my own self for not saying, What the f---? Why didnt I stop it and get him away from me? But it happened too fast. I was absolutely flabbergasted, she said.
And I had the guilt. I questioned myself, Why did I go there? Why did I bring him those ribs? Maybe he thought thats what I wanted too?
The actress, who appeared on The Bill Cosby Show in 1971 before the alleged attack, and Sanford and Son in 1972 said she just buried the freaky episode.
I figured, If I dont think about it, it wont bother me. Of course, with all these women surfacing now, it flushed it out, said McKee, who later became a casting agent.
It was a rape, but it seemed so strange to call it that. We think of rape as a stranger who attacks you in a parking lot, she said.
I chalked it up to another powerful person in Hollywood who just felt he could take what he wanted from women.
She also called it embarrassing that Cosbys wife of 51 years, Camille, released a statement suggesting her husband was the victim.
I knew (Camille). Wed been to dinner, all of us, many times, McKee said. This is not a stupid woman. She has her head buried in the sand.
