The comedian and actor is now under fire for allegedly assaulting women, who claim that the misconduct took place many years ago. As soon as the allegations came out, YouTube blocked his ability to monetize on the streaming site.
Comedian Russell Brand has been accused of rape and sexual assault by four women in an investigation conducted by the UK's Sunday Times, the Times, and Channel 4’s Dispatches. The alleged incidents span seven years and occurred while Brand was working for the BBC, on Channel 4, and in various films. Brand, known for his hedonistic past when he self-admittedly was promiscuous, is known for his comedic roles in films like Forgetting Sarah Marshall. He now hosts a widely popular podcast and spends his time exposing the establishment media's lies. He has denied the allegations in a video, claiming that the encounters were entirely consensual.
