The docuseries ‘Dispatches’ is causing quite a stir, and the first episode has yet to be broadcast. According to reports, the program would reveal “serious criminal allegations” against a public figure. Russell Brand – known as an actor in ‘Get Him to the Greek’ and ‘Forgetting Sarah Marshall’, and as Katy Perry’s ex – took flight and published a video on his YouTube channel in which he calls on people not to believe anything. . Why did he already realize that he was the target of the documentary? He received two “extremely disturbing letters” from a newspaper and media company detailing the allegations.

Brand called it “a litany of extremely blatant and aggressive attacks that are not true.” He continued: “These allegations relate to the time when I was working in the mainstream, when I was constantly in the newspapers, when I was in the movies. And as I’ve described extensively in my books, I was very promiscuous at the time. But all the relationships I had were absolutely mutual.” That made it appear that the accusations were of a sexual nature, and that now appears to be true.

Rape

The allegations against him have been leaked, and they appear to involve rape, sexual abuse and emotional abuse. Four women are said to have fallen victim to his “criminal behavior” between 2006 and 2013.

One of them claims he raped her against the wall of his Los Angeles home. Another woman believes he had sex with her when she was just 16 years old. Brand was 31 at the time. He even called her ‘the child‘. The two are said to have had a relationship for three months that was riddled with sexual and emotional abuse. Brand thus “forced his penis down her throat” until she had to fight him off violently.

A third victim claims that Brand sexually assaulted her while she was working with him in Los Angeles, and that he threatened to take legal action if she said anything about it. “He grabbed me and pushed me onto the bed. And I swear to God, then I saw a black gleam come over his eyes, like the devil. As if someone else had taken over his body,” she says. “He put his hands down my pants, but I fought back so hard… He didn’t rape me. But I don’t know what the definition of ‘sexual assault’ is, but that’s what it felt like.”

The fourth woman also says Russell assaulted her, describing it as “physical and emotional abuse.” She describes a nasty incident in which Brand forced her to brush her teeth until her gums were destroyed, “so she could taste anonymously”.

Attack

Brand claims that the channel deliberately wants to attack him. “I have always been transparent. But to see that transparency now develop into something criminal that I absolutely deny, makes me wonder if there is another agenda at play,” he says in the video.

The comedian has also been removed from the websites of his PR firm and agency. Brand was also scheduled to perform a comedy show at Troubadour Wembley Park tonight, for an audience of 2,000. In the meantime, Brand has arrived, which shows that he will continue with the performance.

Who is Russell Brand?

Brand’s star began to rise twenty years ago, when he started working at MTV as a presenter and rose to fame with his comedy shows in the United Kingdom and America. The BBC and Channel 4 also gave him a prominent role in their TV programmes. With his bad boy image he even made it to Hollywood, where he got comedic roles in films such as ‘Forgetting Sarah Marshall’ and was allowed to lend his voice to ‘Despicable me’. At the time, he was also married to Katy Perry for two years.

But his success was overshadowed by a drink and drug addiction, as well as a sex addiction. For example, he once stated that he had sex with 80 women in one month. The BBC fired Brand after too many drunken antics during airtime, but the comedian found refuge in social media after his glory days on the big and small screen. He has 6.5 million followers on his YouTube channel.

Russell Brand is married to Laura Gallacher, and has two children. Gallacher is also pregnant with a third child.
