Russell Brand Rape Trial: Former Assistant Says He Had ‘Insane Sexual Appetite’ and Bad Behavior on ‘Another Level’

Russell Brand’s former personal assistant Helen Berger has alleged in court that the comedian had an “insane sexual appetite” and that his bad behavior was on “another level” compared to other celebrities. Berger, who worked closely with Brand, told police she witnessed him treating women badly and once had to prevent his mother and girlfriend from walking in on him having sex with someone in his dressing room. Brand is currently on trial facing charges of rape and sexual assault, which he denies. The testimony is part of a broader case that has drawn significant public and media attention, as multiple women have come forward with accusations against the former actor and presenter. Berger’s account paints a picture of a man whose conduct was extreme even by the standards of the entertainment industry, with claims that he was “sleeping with people day and night.” The trial continues as the court hears further evidence about Brand’s alleged behavior and the impact on those around him.
