Bombshell joint reporting between Sunday Times, The Times, and Channel 4 (UK publications).
Five women independently accuse Brand of rape and sexual assault. One was a 16 year-old at the time Brand was 31. When the girl’s mother tried to intervene and express concern, Brand sexually assaulted the mother in front of the girl. I guess we now know why Brand tacked to the rightwing. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/russell-brand-rape-sexual-assault-abuse-allegations-investigation-v5hxdlmb6 |
Either his drug-fueled days are catching up with him (meaning he really did assault these women)
or He’s an easy target for fake allegations because everyone remembers his drug-fueled period. Equally plausible. He seems so earthy crunchy goody two shoes now. And he’s always seemed scrawny and weak. |
Oh no. This is bad. I was such a huge fan.
Ugh. It's so rampant and always has been. |
Reason why Katie Perry cut the bait so fast. |
I have a friend who dated him, almost 20 years ago in our early twenties. I’m not surprised by this. He’s a narcissist. |
IIRC, he dumped her. She was blindsided by his decision to leave the marriage. I saw the report that he was trying to get ahead of this within the last 24 hours saying some accusations were coming, though he didn't reveal the nature of those accusations. |
Is anyone surprised? He's creepy and disgusting. |
I'm surprised, never got that vibe from him. |
Most rapists don't walk around with a shirt on that says "I'm a rapist". I think you'd be surprised at rapists who don't give off a "vibe" whatever that means. |
Surprise, surprise. Comedy attracts complete scumbags. |
I’d be willing to bet that 50% of men have sexually assaulted a woman at some point in time. |
Children usually don’t make good decisions when it comes to their first romantic relationship. Because they are CHILDREN. |
He’s a self proclaimed sex addict. Unsurprised. |
Yep |
No, comedy doesn't attract scumbags any more than acting, or bricklaying, or IT. Now if you'd said, "Surprise, surpise, extensive drug use can fuel rapists," that would have made something like sense. |
