Russell Brand Admits Exploitative Sex

Russell Brand Admits Exploitative Sex

Russell Brand described his past sexual conduct as 'selfish' and admitted to a relationship with a teenager at the height of his fame.

While maintaining that his actions were legal, the 50-year-old actor acknowledged that he did not consider how his behavior affected others.

Brand currently faces seven charges of rape and sexual assault made by six different women, all of which he denies.

The interview has reignited debate over the 'exploitative' nature of his public persona during the mid-2000s.
