This has been brewing for a while. Brand has come out saying what he's said all along that this is politically motivated. I tend to agree that there are many who would like him discredited and shut up. However, I'd also like to think the English justice system wasn't that corrupt.

These allegations are related to something that may have happened 25 years ago. Also, I'm not sure if there is any evidence other than testimony.

I know nothing about this, but the headline does not shock me.

Looking at his Wiki page, the section about sexual misconduct allegations is pretty substantial, and includes numerous allegations with numerous women. This new charge is not an isolated event.

And in this particular case, I suspect where there's smoke there's fire.

Just FYI, the last time there was a Russell Brand thread I got banned for a month. We'll see how this one goes.

Im going to take a wild guess that if he had stayed on the Blue Plantation, these accusations never would have happened.

He is shady as heck and all his new spiritual stuff has 'grifter' written all over it. I hoped not, but then he started trying to sell some crystal and that pretty much sealed the deal that IMO, he has not one authentic honest fiber in his being. He's been accused of this type of stuff for a long long time. It was going to come to roost eventually. I think his sudden spiritual kick was to try to combat those allegations so he can say that he is a reformed man.

I hope I'm wrong.

where do you think corrupt governments and justice departments learned from?

Allegations of sexual harassment and impropriety go back to the early 2000's. He was accused of sexual assault by his ex girlfriend in 2014. The Sunday Times was investigating allegations of sexual assault and rape in 2019. Pretty sure his political views and statements have nothing to do with it because this has been following him for 20 years.

I was even willing to overlook that whole deal as wierd new age /new convert zeal, but when he posted the magic amulet, I was 100% out. it does seem as though he's taken all of that down off of social media, but I can't help but think that was the real him come out to show true colors.

Minor quibble with this tweet. Russell Brand was in his tighty-whities baptizing people. He was not, as far as I know, baptizing people in his tighty-whities.

He specifically turned right wing nut because of these allegations. No one embraces sexual predators quite like the right, just as long as they are "owning libs". Also, right wingers are a lot easier to grift.

If it's he said, she said, and he is Russell Brand, I'm highly inclined to believe what she said.

This is such an insane position for anyone on either side to take.

There are a lot of legitimate reasons these accusations don't come up for a long time. Maybe weigh the evidence before making an accusation of lying for money.

Absolute incredible statement considering reality and facts. Good lord!

LOL!

Hegseth, Gaetz, and the Tate bros would like a word. But you know, "reality and facts" I guess.

I don't really think any party in power has a monopoly on ethical behavior.
They are all pretty scummy at the top. That's how they got there.

All of the Kennedys, Clinton, Biden.

Biden's own VP called him a rapist and a racist and then he hires her a few weeks after she says this.

We can go all day with your clown world take. How far back in time and which US Congress do you want to go with?

Power corrupts. Fame and money come along with a lot of temptations that us peons never face, as well as potential entrapment schemes. Makes me cherish my normal, boring little life.

I'm really never shocked anymore when I hear that an A-lister is or was a horrible person when off screen. Pretty common to let money and or fame inflate your ego to the point you think you're untouchable. I'm guessing for every career that goes down in flames over this stuff there are dozens more that slip under the radar. Woody Allen will go to the grave still celebrated for his work despite the awful **** he's done. Michael Jackson is surprisingly still adored despite even worse. It usually is best just to not know what entertainers and politicians and business tycoons are actually like.

So rumors, wild claims for someone that lied under oath several times along with changing her story several times with no corroborating evidence, and conspiracy theories versus verifiable evidence in Gaetz, multiple accusations in Hegseth case, and literally being found guilty in the Tate brothers case.

Rather than denounce those that still hold power, the right continues to play the "what about" game. Anthony Weiner got caught being a perv and he was ousted almost immediately, no one on the left was defending him. Meanwhile, you have people jumping over backwards to defend right wingers.

Literally in this thread you had someone pulling the "if he was a dem this would've been buried" BS. The last thread we had here on this exact subject had many of our typical F16 posters defending him.

There is crappy people on both sides, unfortunately the right's standards the last 10 years seems to have completely gone out the window in favor of "own the libs" as the only standard that matters.
