Drug use is a tit excuse for assaulting people sexually. Drugs usually remove that self control barrier and reveal what a person is really like. Drugs do not alter the mind beyond what you can't already comprehend.I’m not excusing Russell’s past behaviour, but he openly admits that he has behaved appallingly in the past due to multiple addictions and has made amends to each person he has harmed (where possible) as part of the 12 Step Programme he follows.
Drugs/alcohol are literally mind altering substances and people using them behave in ways they never would sober. I know it is argued that using / drinking is a choice. Sure, maybe the first time, but it literally alters the brain: addiction is a brain disease. Once it has someone in its clutches, it is a life long battle.
Some people might still find him annoying, but at least he’s trying to be a better person now. I have a lot of empathy for addicts and a lot of respect for anyone in recovery.
Rape is a very serious allegation, no one here seems to have any kind of evidence of even know where the allegations came from. So i just did some research turns out Brand was awarded a large amount of money in damages by the courts because the press had publish unfounded and untrue claims about a rape at a part at his flat. The police questioned him and decided there was no substance to it.Same.
I’ve never heard anything about him sexually assaulting anyone - a lot of casual sex, yes. I’m not saying he hasn’t, I just haven’t heard of it.Drug use is a tit excuse for assaulting people sexually. Drugs usually remove that self control barrier and reveal what a person is really like.

Apologies, when you said 'if you’ve raped someone, you’ve raped someone.' in a discussion about brand i wrongly assumed you were talking about him.I wasn’t the one who accused him of rape.
I have every empathy for a person in the midst of addiction but when your actions harm others then you should be held accountable. Addiction makes no difference to the victim.I’ve never heard anything about him sexually assaulting anyone - a lot of casual sex, yes. I’m not saying he hasn’t, I just haven’t heard of it.
Drugs alter the parts of the brain that control decision making and empathy, amongst others. Temporarily and often permanently.
He is currently a spiritual guru and family manI think most drug addicts/junkies have a lowered sex drive and if they commit a crime its normally to fund the habit. So i could see that would be a catalyst to behave out of character but not sex crime. I think he's just a sleazey pervert. He seems to always be playing a role.
I agree, and that’s what I meant by referencing the 12 Step Programme.I have every empathy for a person in the midst of addiction but when your actions harm others then you should be held accountable. Addiction makes no difference to the victim.
I read this was Annie Lennoxcould it be KT Tunstall?
I know he lost his dad. If getting married to Lance is the reaction to losing his dad so be it.. it just doesn’t feel right to me.He lost his dad, came out then ended up married to a man 20 years older (with a strange face lift) and have a baby all in what seemed a short space of time.
That photo shoot in the DM tries to portray him as a twink- sucking on a lollipop while looking shyly.
Yeah, because it isn't as if he needs to attract the gay market, or the market of people who like guys with abs. Everyone's there already. There is a visual appeal to divers because they live in Speedos. Their uniform is thirst trap pictures.I know he lost his dad. If getting married to Lance is the reaction to losing his dad so be it.. it just doesn’t feel right to me.
I recalltgere be another photo shoot which was also a little soft porn like, lying about in his speedos. Whoever is managing these photo shoots is trying to appeal to an odd market
No one here seems to have any substance to their claims he is a rapist. Or responded to my questions asking how they consider it to be trueI think RB has sexually embarrassed and harassed women, but I haven't heard any allegations of rape which of course is far worse.
ive never understood this, round by me they worship him and yet its pretty well known he used underage groupies, so why is it ok for him? Just because he had a flash painted on his face? Because he makes for a good image?Bowie repeatedly had sex with minors, it is gross that the liberal media worships him.
His fans can see no wrong in ANYTHING he did.ive never understood this, round by me they worship him and yet its pretty well known he used underage groupies, so why is it ok for him? Just because he had a flash painted on his face? Because he makes for a good image?
I think a large amount of Bowie fans like his Aladdin Sane /ziggy image, not his music and, for some reason, it’s considered cool to be a Bowie fan, I just don’t believe many of them are really music fans.His fans can see no wrong in ANYTHING he did.
I am a Bowie fan, i don't worship him though. I think some people just basically think he can do no wrong and his underage sex was put down to "drug use" or his "art" - when in reality he was basically a more humble and controlled sex pest.ive never understood this, round by me they worship him and yet its pretty well known he used underage groupies, so why is it ok for him?

Brand used women disgracefully and is an utter windbag. I have no time for him but to accuse anyone of a crime as horrendous as rape without any evidence is also wrong.At best he has a sleazy charm at worst a persistent an determined sex pest/harrasser.Mind you a lot of wrn would say yes to him but not me he looks too 'used'No one here seems to have any substance .uto their claims he is a rapist. Or responded to my questions asking how they consider it to be true
