I have a friend who witnessed a “joke” he made on stage, so descriptive, and indeed was the very same description one of the victims has provided
He’s always used verbal obfuscation to disguise the fact that he’s not saying very much at all. Whenever I see anyone praise him as a highly intelligent man who speaks incisive truth to power, it’s clear that they’re not very bright and can’t see through the showboating to his complete lack of substance.I'm not sure what he'#s meant to be telling the truth about. He spouts a load of word salad.
currently in France on holiday so maybe that’s why!@GM17 it does for me are you UK?
It's a really long article or I'd C&P it.
Another link from reddit summary of the same article I think https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/n...d-rape-sexual-assault-allegations-1235592146/
Abused for a second time while an audience laughs at you and he's getting paid for it. it's just repugnant on so many levels. He was literally laughing at them.I have a friend who witnessed a “joke” he made on stage, so descriptive, and indeed was the very same description one of the victims has provided
Does he even come across as nice? It wouldn't be a word I'd use to describe him. Not that he seemed horrible either, just creepy, and other than that he sort of just existed.It's an act. He's an actor. He's in showbiz. All this guff we've been fed over the years ... calling these people 'personalities'. It's utter bollocks most of the time. Their persona on screen is nothing like their persona off it most of the time.
On the subject of which, does anyone know if he’s actually ventured on stage tonight?back in the day, I saw brand live. he was late and came on stage with a bottle of his p*ss and asked who wanted it. some bloke said yes, so he gave it him. he then spend the rest of his show reading tabloid newspaper stories about himself and women who sold their stories to the press. he disagreed with the things they said about him. I never watched him again in anything. I regretted seeing him live
The opener was him telling a ''''''''''joke'''''''''' describing the exact scene of the oral rape he performed on one of his victims - but saying that he 'likes bjs like that' but 'wouldn't suggest it!!!!!'. Vile man.Was gonna ask how everyone is watching it cos I’m just seeing formula 1 and wondering if it was a delay but then realised I was on Channel 4+1 typical me
what was the hell of the opener??
When should it have come out?Why is this coming out now though?
Yes he did. Pics further back in the threadOn the subject of which, does anyone know if he’s actually ventured on stage tonight?
I’m intrigued by why it’s suddenly being made very public now. It’s been known for years; Katherine Ryan, for one, has made many references to a ‘dangerous predator’ hiding in plain sight that everyone in comedy knew about, and though she was wary not to name him explicitly she gave enough away that it was clear who she was talking about.Why is this coming out now though?
He comes across as complete self absorbed prick. I was disappointed a couple years ago at Fearne Cottons Happy Place festival when she had him on. Kind of lost my respect for Fearne at that, but wasn’t sure why. Couldn’t put my finger on it.Does he even come across as nice? It wouldn't be a word I'd use to describe him. Not that he seemed horrible either, just creepy, and other than that he sort of just existed.
I don't remember him being particularly funny either, couldn't repeat a memorable joke of his if my life depended on it. He was just an eccentric character who relied on making people slightly uncomfortable.
Thanks - that’s going to be an awkward evening all round. 🫤Yes he did. Pics further back in the thread
Because they've finally got enough evidence and sources to publish without him being able to claim libel. They've been working on this for three years to get testimonies, verify facts, etc.Why is this coming out now though?
