British comedian and actor Russell Brand was granted bail after appearing in a London court Friday on charges of rape and multiple counts of sex assault.
Brand, who was charged last month, has always denied having nonconsensual sex since the allegations about him were first aired two years ago.
Brand’s appearance Friday came ahead of the first hearing of the case at Westminster magistrates’ court.
He arrived in a black shirt unbuttoned down to his chest, black jeans and dark sunglasses. Making his way through the main entrance, he was flanked by journalists and photographers on both sides, to whom he did not give any interviews or comments.
In a short procedural hearing, the 49-year-old right-wing wellness influencer spoke only to confirm his name, date of birth, address and that he understood his bail conditions.
