Obviously not a fan of his but I find it fascinating that in a relatively short space of time he went from having a burgeoning Hollywood career to becoming a conspiracy theorist and religous fanatic. Was he deliberately building a conspiracy theory around himself?

A reminder folks. He's been charged. As of now, he hasn't been convicted. So please be careful what you're posting. We don't want the forum to get in legal trouble. Thanks.

But he is guilty of being a complete tw*t. That verdict was made years ago.A reminder folks. He's been charged. As of now, he hasn't been convicted. So please be careful what you're posting. We don't want the forum to get in legal trouble. Thanks.

Just reading through some of the comments under the news video of this story on YouTube...full of conspiracy theorists supporting Brand. The usual bullshit...he's only getting arrested because: "he knows too much about British politics" "He knows too much about American politics". "He speaks the truth".....

100% this - the pair of them are both disgraceful. If Ross ever comes on when I'm watching TV I switch to abother channel.That much became clear when he and Ross made those comments about Andrew Sach's daughter.

Also; being a twat isn't, in itself, a crime. If it was, there's a lot of us on here in deep shit.That much became clear when he and Ross made those comments about Andrew Sach's daughter.

He also has a presence on the video platform, Rumble, where he hosts weekly live shows to his 1.4 million followers. He earned a great deal with his career change, thanks to YouTube's option to monetise videos. He's worth an estimated £16million, according to wealth website Celebrity Net Worth.
YouTube experts claimed he makes around $61,000 (£49,250) a month from his YouTube channel and another $100,000 (£80,700) a month from his paid subscriptions to his podcast and merchandise.
The chief executive of social media analysis agency CORQ, Sara McCorquodale, said to The Guardian of his online income: "He is most likely making £2,000 to £4,000 per video, not taking into account any affiliate deals and brand sponsorships that might be running in the background." As a result, the demonetisation of Brand’s YouTube account is likely to have a significant impact on his earning potential.
Based on five videos a week and the hundreds of thousands of views he gets per video, he could be earning up to £1million a year from the channel. Brand also has a subscription option on the online community platform, Locals, where fans can sign up for a minimum of $60 (£48) a year in order to gain special content from him as well as get the opportunity to interact with him directly.

Or a touring standup tbh. He was one of the biggest acts in the country. Like him or not, he could easily sell out every arena in the country multiple times, and he had a decent profile in America too.Still not as much as he could have earned as an actor.
But yeah, it seems to be a well-trodden path for someone who has been ostracised from society for whatever reason to go down the conspiracy grift path. It's a way of getting an audience, I guess, when the mainstream has abandoned you.

True, but acting career was maybe on a slide ? he wasn't exactly Marlon Brando was he.
Earning Millions spouting conspiracy shite isn't to be sniffed at really.

More like he turned his back on the mainstream when he dived headfirst down every conspiracy rabbit hole he could find.Or a touring standup tbh. He was one of the biggest acts in the country.

He's not far off Andrew Tate for the type of influence and harm he puts on youngsters.

I reckon he was already struggling to get booked on stuff at that point. His behaviour has apparently been a fairly open secret in the industry. I remember Katherine Ryan even calling him out on a Comedy Central programme to his face.More like he turned his back on the mainstream when he dived headfirst down every conspiracy rabbit hole he could find.

Another dangerous rapist ****.
