In telling the world about his promiscuity, Russell Brand turned his red flags into part of his charm. And like so many before him, he was able to control the narrative and cash in handsomely.
During a 2006 stand-up comedy routine, Brand told a crowd he enjoyed receiving “them blowjobs where mascara runs a little bit”. According to a woman who had a months-long relationship with Brand when she was 16 and he was 30, he was once so forcible during oral sex that she began to choke. After she punched him in the stomach to make him stop, she alleges Brand told her, “I only wanted to see your mascara run.
Brand denies all the allegations made against him. But in making his predilections well known to the world, he normalised his behaviour and turned his red flags into part of his charm. And like so many before him, in confessing his sins without duress, he was able to control the narrative and cash in handsomely.Age Ain’t Nothing But a Number
