Russell Brand has been accused of rape, sexual assault and emotional abuse over a seven-year period at the height of his fame.

The allegations between 2006 and 2013 were the result of a joint investigation by the Sunday Times, the Times and Channel 4 Dispatches. Brand denies the allegations.

Five alleged victims, four of them anonymous, were interviewed in the Dispatches documentary aired on Saturday night.

Very smart guy. And jeez-Louise does he talk fast. Your mind actually has to step up a couple of notches to keep up with what he’s saying. You find yourself thinking...maybe I should be taking notes. I didn’t like him much previously, but he’s changed...come around to our way of thinking.

Someone always gathers the “accusers” together. So easy to see through this crap.

If you haven’t heard of Russell Brand, you’re definitely living under a rock

British far-right commentator Katie Hopkins made this 4:43 minute video in support of Russell Brand. Katie herself was cancelled for her conservative stand, but has fought back, and is winning. As Katie says, Russell Brand was the first to admit his sexual addictions. He even wrote about it. He also once broke into her radio show, and called her a "Nazi," yet Katie comes to Brand's defense, and her response is brilliant as always:

Russell Brand: keep going lovely. Every day is a day of DEFIANCE

Russell change Brands. That's a no-no. He's too influential. He's now in the cross-hairs.

"And jeez-Louise does he talk fast. Your mind actually has to step up a couple of notches to keep up with what he’s saying. "

I use the closed captions, although the spelling can be atrocious. Every so often you can get a laugh when they substitute the wrong name or word for what was actually said in the video.

I’ve never heard of him and I am a social media influencer. Well, at least I post on FR.

I guess, instead of him talking fast, I should've said he's "intense". He's not THAT fast, but he's intense and he quickly strings his thoughts and sentences together with that intensity, when he gets wound up. I went back to look for the interview he had with Tucker Carlson, as an example. (Thanks for the suggestion of closed caps.)

And he should be commended for cleaning up his life but he was living in Hunter Biden territory, and he often admits to that lifestyle of no boundaries.

Agreed on that.

Women hurling accusations behind anonymity is BS though.

Masterson’s case demonstrates evidence isn’t even needed.
Innocent until proven guilty is no longer the law.
America as it was intended is dead.
I’m aware Brand is a Brit.

He’s getting the Bill Cosby Treatment.
He is very articulate politically, and has made several conservative leaning remarks. I’ve been waiting for him to ebter politics in some manner.

What an ugly mug... looks like a fringe Paleolithic creature.

That's a terrible photo of him. Here's a better one. Picture him in a Robin Hood or Shakespearean production and you may better appreciate his ancient Celto-Wasp looks:

He has or had a show. He is conservative. So there you go.

It’s that “me too” crap. Women are reviewing their dance cards for the last 4 decades. If any stars, famous types, or dudes with money are there on her guest register, they make an accusation for cash.

Simple as that. They were plaster casters outside the backstage door back in the 90s... now they suddenly remember they felt guilt once a few weeks later, but a few hundred thousand would make it all better.

Thanks for the link to the video. The left was in adulation of this guy when he was acting like a cellar dweller. Once he discovered God, decided he needed to turn his life around, and woke up to the realities in this world, they had to condemn him, and bring him down. I have seen some of his videos on YouTube in the past, and remember him from some movies, but I never knew anything about his personal life.

I’ve listened to his various podcasts for at least 2 years. From yoga, breathing, 12 steps and politics. It’s all been very good - although, I’d say not as strong lately - more playing to an audience than the beginning of his programming. Unfortunately, the accusations have a very strong sense of being true. Including a rape crisis center visit by an accuser. The anonymous part won’t last long. They will disclose.
