He was very skillful from the start in making his identity 'I'm a womanizer, I'm a sex addict, I'm inappropriate, but it's all just a joke. It's funny.' It's … a smokescreen.

Alleged victim of sexual abuse

Introduction

Since the mid-1990s, most people have known Russell Brand as a maverick comedian — a salacious provocateur who was open about his addictions to drugs, alcohol, and sex.

For years, disturbing rumors about Brand's off-stage behavior simmered in the background of his mainstream career, but serious allegations came to light in a September 2023 documentary.

Russell Brand: In Plain Sight is a joint-venture documentary from Channel 4's investigative current affairs program Dispatches and The Times & Sunday Times, Britain's oldest national newspaper.

In the media partnership's collaborative year-long investigation, allegations of sexual assault, rape, and abusive behavior by Brand are presented in persuasive detail.
