A former model and actress accused Bill Cosby of making sexual advances and lewd gestures toward her on the set of 'The Cosby Show,' just hours after the comedian canceled his shows in Boston.

Helen Gumpel, formerly known as Helen Selby, said that she never thought of herself as a victim because she refused his advances but her career was a victim, News.com.au reported.

The 77-year-old entertainer faces sexual assault accusations from at least 15 women. He denies the allegations and has never been charged with a crime.

Cosby, who has a home in western Massachusetts, told the Boston Globe he cancelled the shows because of impending "treacherous" weather.
