Now, Russell Brand, he's a UK comedian, long hair with a beard.
He's married to Katy Perry for many years.
He's been in many movies, like Forgetting Sarah Marshall,
Get Him to the Greek, another one as well.
But he's been clouded with some serious allegations from many women,
and he's released a video denying these.
Amidst this litany of astonishing, rather baroque attacks,
are some very serious allegations that I absolutely refute.
But here with more is Enty. finding out what's going on behind the scenes. Killing a cast member? Yes. It was a script. No.
His identity is a secret.
But his stories have been proven right time and time again.
This is NT.
We call him Dwayne Johnson because he's about to rock some celebrities to the core.
NT, good morning.
Good morning.
That's a good one.
We practiced that one.
We did.
I had a few rehearsals backstage,
been reworked a couple of lines,
and we got there in the end.
NT, crazy news this week.
Russell Brand suffering some brand damage, you would say.
Some pretty serious sexual assault allegations from multiple people
from years gone by.
Yeah, you know, I think the first time I wrote about him with 16-year-olds was probably in 2017 or 18 is the first time I think I had heard about that.
Oh, so this is a known thing in the industry.
Oh, yeah, it's an open secret.
But the problem is, is as somebody was really in 2020 was really hammering me, please go after him, please go after him, please go after him.
That was the time that one of the women that made the allegations that she went to his management
company and said, look, this is what he had done to me. And the management company didn't believe
her and basically just, you know, sent her on her way and said, no, you know, he wouldn't do that.
We've asked him for his side of the story and we don't believe you. And so I was getting these
tips from a couple of different people, but basically saying, look, look, you know, nobody, everybody's afraid to stand up to him or whatever.
All the stories are basically the same.
He takes them to his house and then he does whatever.
And then they're crying and he sends them off with his driver.
And so that was what was going on. And then if you see like yesterday, his management
company, the same one in 2020, that didn't believe the victims, they dumped Russell Brand and they
said, we were horribly misled in 2020. We were horribly misled. He lied to us. And, you know,
so we're no longer, you know, having him as a client. Obviously you've married to Katy Perry
for a few years there. A lot of people are asking whether she should come forward, if she's got any, I guess, information.
Well, I think that she probably has information.
I think that when you think about the thousands of women that he has been with sexually, there are going to be a lot more that come forward.
He wants to refute them, and he goes and uses that obnoxious language that he does, oh, it's so Baroque or whatever.
And he knew this was coming.
For the last several years, he knew this was coming.
And I think that's why he's kind of changed his image a little bit.
He's trying to take the whole blame the victim kind of thing and go for that angle,
and people are just coming after me because I've changed my opinion on certain political means,
so that's why everybody's coming after me.
So, yeah, funny you mention that. because I've changed my opinion on certain political means, so that's why everybody's coming after me.
So, yeah, funny you mention that,
and there never should be a timeline on when people can come forward,
but why do you think there's been so long,
so much water under the bridge since these things happened and now coming out publicly?
Because people have been talking about it a long time,
and what about this woman that came in 2020,
and the management just shut her down completely?
There was another woman, I think it was a masseuse, and this is when he was dating Jemima Khan.
She had hired him a masseuse for his birthday.
And the woman said that she had been assaulted by Russell Brand.
And Jemima Khan, very, very powerful woman or whatever, basically went to her connections.
And the next thing you know, this judge says, no, you have no case.
You know, you were just hired for a service. And so this woman was shut out and you can see it publicly.
And we don't know how many women were shut out behind the scenes. We don't know how many women
he paid off. We don't know any of that stuff. If you haven't watched it, and I know if you guys
have watched the documentary or whatever, you know, produced by Channel 4 in England and the
Sunday Times, you need to watch it. You will see how specific it is, how many dates,
how many text messages they have, emails, receipts, everything.
Apologies from Russell Brand.
All of this kind of stuff.
And so if you haven't watched it, you need to watch it.
It's powerful.
It's, you know, I think it's 80 minutes or something like that.
And you will come away watching and go, okay, I have no doubt.
So what happens now?
Are there police complaints?
What happens to his career?
Okay, well, the police have said, hey, come forward, anybody who's out there.
Doesn't matter how long ago it was, just come forward and stuff.
I would venture to say, you know, he had a concert the day after,
and there was 2,000 people there.
It was sold out.
You know, I have often said to you guys you guys if R Kelly got out of jail today he could go sell at 10,000
right Chris Brown sells 10,000 15,000 20,000 it doesn't matter to certain
hardcore fans so he's probably gonna keep playing at 2,000 you know people
but the the whole TV show movie thing is gone for him for probably ever
