ALLEGATION STORM
RUSSELL Brand has entered a plea of not guilty to new charges of rape and sexual assault. | Instagram

WHEN a male celebrity stands in court and says “not guilty”, that is not just a headline. That is a moment. And in 2026, moments like this land differently.
Russell Brand, once the chaotic, eyeliner-wearing poster boy of British comedy, has formally denied a new case of rape and sexual assault charges in a London court.
These new allegations add to five earlier charges he denied in 2025: two counts of rape, one count of indecent assault and two counts of sexual assault linked to alleged incidents involving four women between 1999 and 2005.
