Russel Brands eyes

Strip away the pretentious hair, facial hair, flamboyant/dishevelled clothes, sunglasses and jewellery and and you just have an ordinary-looking man who violently attacks women.

He's no different to any other violent criminal or controlling abuser. The ridiculous hair and pointy boots etc were all part of his cover.

A rapist hiding in plain sight all along.

A rapist who was enabled and encouraged by the media and corporations because he made lots of money for them.
Despicable.

I always found him creepy and weird.

I used to work with a bloke who everyone loved (im retail and he was maintenance)

I didn't know him at all so didn't have an opinion on him either way-id barely said two words to him

Anyway,one day id been at our other store (can't remember why) and was just about to walk out of the door to set off to 'my' store

He offered me a lift-and something in his eyes told me not to get in his van

I cant explain what it was,I cant say 'oh he did x,y or z' as it wasn't that simple, it was the way he looked at me

He never spoke to me again-he actively ignored me after that and I know he slagged me off to my bosses (my male manager told me that id offended this bloke)

6 months later,he's arrested and charged for rape

He'd been following women after dark,then started flashing at them,then ramped it up just like Wayne Couzins did

So many of the women at work said (afterwards) that he'd creeped them out but they didn't feel able to say anything and the men hadn't seen it coming/some still think he was innocent

And his girlfriend stood by him-as far as I know,they are still together (this was just before covid)

'I thought i could smell him through the tv' is exactly what I felt about RB,you just know he honked of hair grease,bo and had stinky feet

Revolting bastard

I’ve always thought this too right from the start when everyone else seemed to think he was great. I do believe eyes are the window to the soul. This might sound stupid but since I was young whenever I saw a murderer on tv or read an article I struggled to look into their eyes and would sometimes cover them up - sounds ridiculous I know but even in my 40s I feel uneasy - as so often you can see something really horrible in them.

His eyes are horrible, and his gums

Always gave me a Jimmy Saville vibe looks like my spidey senses were right.

Thank goodness you didn’t get in that van!

You’re right, it’s a certain way the eyes look that you can’t really describe. Horrible

What did he do to the dog (but I’m not sure I want to know really)

I think this is something they shall have to monitor as he has a lot of interesting stories to tell

though a sex offender so will be on a vulnerable prisoner wing he will have others who are more of a target once the interest of having such a high profile prisoner

it would not surprised me at all if he has a following a few years down the line

as for the evil eyes many are posting about when you have someone who has a sudden surge of emotion or rage their eyes will often darken. It’s unnerving because your brain is telling you that you are not safe even if they are appearing calm the feeling is biological response to you being in danger not intuition that they are dangerous

I did think he was attractive back in the day; not exactly good looking physically, but very charismatic with a weird magnetism about him.

His smile is gummy, he looks like he hasn’t got an arse and is morphing into Charles Manson.

apologies I have just read about the dog what a c*t what an absolute c*t 😢

Apparently, in his book he said his childhood dog wasn't allowed up the stairs. So he'd go on the landing, call her up, then when she came up he'd tell her off then kick her down, then go down and comfort her. Sounds like a control thing (unsurprisingly). She was a nervous dog too, apparently. Weird he should've written about it.

I always thought he was odd. He wasn’t funny at all. I hated the way he dressed and don’t get me started on the hair. I always wondered how he got away with saying the stuff he did. I didn’t ever think he was
more than a bit eccentric though. But
looking back now I’m not really surprised by what’s come out.

He is, according to my sister who has met him several times at Soho house and is now utterly appalled she drank champagne and had a very convivial time with a rapist.

He has brown eyes,they went black as he offered me the lift

My adult ds has dark eyes and they are warm unless he loses his temper (which happens very rarely)

I cant put it into words but they looked dead and nothing behind them

Rasputin

A friend was on the Katy Perry tour when they were married.

Russell was the only big ego on that tour, would insist rooms were cleared for him (ie the paid tour members who were meant to be there and had jobs to do weren’t able to use communal spaces) was widely regarded as insufferable and smelt as bad as people imagined judging by comments on here.

You are in the minority indeed. The rest of the country apparently knew he was a wrong un, found him dead behind the eyes, found him creepy and thought he wasn’t funny. Yet lapped him up in the media to the point that he was a huge star for decades.

But apparently no one, none of these people ever liked him.

Very curious indeed.

I wonder how much of that feeling people say they get about his eyes is the actual eyeballs (which doesn't make sense to me unless it's related to pupil dilation) and how much is muscle tension around the eyes that communicates emotion through micro-expressions - a sense of rage, contempt, or avarice for instance, communicated in the set of the eyebrows, the muscles in the forehead, around the orbital bones, at the nose, etc.

He does seem to have very tense, emotive features that frequently show a manic edge - as though he's on hyper-alert all the time, and always on the verge of tipping over into anger. (Edit: In recent years anyway. I don't recall if he did when he was younger.)

I never thought much of him. He wasn't my type, he looked dirty and selfish, and while I thought he was very impressively skilled at his non-stop patter, it often irritated me that he used twenty words where two would do. He was always too impressed with himself.

Imagine the book deal his wife is likely to be offered.

This kind of thing is just confirmation bias in most cases.

Yes

Listening back to his jokes it saddens me to hear so many women laughing when he talks about rape.
