Six more women have accused Russell Brand of sexual misconduct, including alleged nonconsensual sex and unwanted touching, days after the comedian received a 10 and a half year prison sentence.
The new allegations emerged in an investigation by The Times and The Sunday Times, with women recounting disturbing experiences involving the 51-year-old entertainer.
One woman alleged that Brand ignored her objections during sex after she discovered he wasn’t wearing a condom.
She claimed she stopped resisting out of fear.
According to the woman, Brand apologized after the alleged encounter.
“I justified it in my head by saying to myself: at least he admitted it,” she recalled.
Another accuser, who was 19 when she met Brand in 2007, alleged that he ignored her complaints that intercourse was painful. She claimed he later told her, “Tonight was consensual. Nobody did anything they didn’t want to do.”
A woman who encountered Brand following a 2013 performance in San Francisco also accused him of forcibly touching her.
“I didn’t resist. I just sort of let it happen,” she recalled.
The allegations arrive after Brand was convicted of raping a 21-year-old fan and sexually assaulting three other women. He was acquitted of two additional rape charges and one attempted indecent assault charge.
On Nov. 9, a London judge sentenced him to 10 years and six months behind bars.
