Russell Brand Says He’s Getting Baptized, Opportunity to Leave Past Behind

Russell Brand‘s taking a giant step in his religion journey … saying he is getting baptized — and saying it is a possibility to maneuver on from the previous.

The controversial actor/podcast host posted a video to his Instagram not too long ago … telling his almost 4 million followers he is scheduled to be baptized as we speak and asking those that’d been by way of the method to share their experiences.

After waxing poetic on faith for a bit, RB makes a fairly eye-opening assertion … saying he is heard it is a possibility to be reborn — and go away the previous behind.

Brand’s bought loads of motive to need to transfer on from the previous, particularly the current previous … as a result of sexual assault allegations from years in the past have hounded the star for the final six months or so.

ICYMI … again in September, Brand jumped out forward of sexual abuse allegations — together with claims of rape — on his YouTube account the place he categorically denied any wrongdoing.

The allegations seemingly sparked an investigation within the UK — although London’s Metropolitan Police did not particularly identify Brand after they introduced the investigation it appeared clear they have been referring to Brand.

And, simply two months in the past, an nameless girl claimed he sexually assaulted her in a toilet on the set of his 2011 movie “Arthur” … one other allegation Brand denies.
