Jack Grey Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 (edited) Again it's all about some gold diggers looking to make some quick cash Back in the day the tabloids used to call it "Kiss & Tell" Back then it involved a bit of embarrassment and shame but now it's about cancelling and destroying a man's life Does anyone really think that Russell Brand had to take advantage of any women when he was fighting them off with a stick with poo in it? They were throwing themselves at him Edited September 17, 2023 by Jack Grey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abbeyedges Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 It's a crime for the media to be referring to him as a 'comedian'. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deeply cynical...... And there are 4 women making these accusations at the same time Which would suggest that someone actively went to seek them out "Hey.....did sleep with Russell Brand?" "Yes" "Wanna make some quick cash and get 5 mins of fame?" "Yes" "Excellent......I'll just take a small lawyers commission of 20% on any compensation you get" Edited September 17, 2023 by Jack Grey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deeply cynical...... Probably because they were too young, too scared,. vulnerable. After watching the documentary it was clear that Brand was a bit of a force given his popularity at the time. One brave comedian spoke out on the documentary and gave insight that Brands antics were known in the comedy circle and people were warned. He had clearly been protected by his Agents and his employers. So expecting a 16 yr old and other young women to go up against him is a big ask.

cuttsie Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Whoever that scruffy twatttt shagged is debatable , what is not is the fact that he and Jonathon Ross ruined Andrew Sachs and his grand daughters life , pay back time for a loud mouthed narcissistic horrible human being . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Bundy Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 The bloke is a complete moron. I think a lot of the problem is with folk like Brand is that they are having women constantly throwing themselves at them and it goes to their head, thinking that they can get away with anything. The phone call to Andrew Sachs proves what kind of individual he is mind. As others have said though, innocent until proven guilty regarding these allegations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People can't keep using that "pathetic victim" argument, it's patronising, and even insulting. It's also totally consistent that it's the same people who have this obsession with nobody ever getting upset about anything. "Ohh how terrible, even if what happened might well have been legal and/or consensual if anyone was upset by it then it's SO serious (even though they never said anything about it at the time......)".

"Ohh how terrible, even if what happened might well have been legal and/or consensual if anyone was upset by it then it's SO serious (even though they never said anything about it at the time......)". Man up. Why are you arguing about a 16 year old being subjected to non consensual sex by a man in his 30's? That's what was in the documentary and that's what I'm referring to Or should this 16yr have been told to 'Man Up'? And your despicable response is probably the same response she'd have expected if reported at the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
