Ahead of the story, Brand had vehemently denied all “worrying” claims the day before the revelations were published.

He addressed the accusations in a video, stating, “I have received two alarming letters, or letters and emails, one from a mainstream media TV company, one from a newspaper, listing a litany of horrific and aggressive attacks. Amidst this litany of stunning, somewhat baroque attacks there are some weighty allegations that I dispute.”

The “Bedtime Stories” actress continued: “When I was in the movies, and as I wrote extensively in my book, I was very, very promiscuous. During that time, the relationships I had were always consensual.”

“[There are] witnesses whose evidence directly contradicts the narrative these two mainstream media are trying to construct, apparently, in what I see as a coordinated attack,” he concluded.

Following a massive investigation into Brand by Chanel 4 titled, “Russell Brand: In Plain Sight: Dispatches,” the comedian released a video on Instagram, thanking his supporters for “questioning” the information presented to them and asking for their support on the app Rumble’s video sharing after his YouTube channel was demonetized.
