Russell Brand's sex confession

In a candid and controversial interview, 50-year-old Russell Brand described his past sexual conduct as 'selfish' and 'immature'.

While acknowledging the exploitative nature of the relationship, he maintained that his actions were not illegal at the time.

The born-again Christian is currently facing seven criminal charges in the UK brought by six different women.

Brand's legal team is preparing for a high-stakes trial in October, even as the comedian discusses a potential political run for Mayor of London.
