Russell Edward Brand (born 4 June 1975) is an English comedian, actor, radio host, writer, and activist.
Brand has abstained from drug use since 13 December 2002. He is a patron of the Focus 12 drug treatment programme after his own use of the service. Brand’s sobriety was instigated by his agent, John Noel, after Brand was apprehended using heroin in a bathroom during a Christmas party. Brand cites his practice of transcendental meditation as a significant factor in his recovery from drug dependence. Brand organised three fundraisers for Focus 12 in London, Dublin and Belfast in 2009, and has also acted as a “sponsor” for numerous people during the rehabilitation stage of their treatment process.
The media published articles on Brand during his drug-using period, typically in relation to incidents, and his public profile has since been associated with this era. Drug-related issues led to Brand’s arrest on 12 occasions. Brand was ejected from the Gilded Balloon in Edinburgh, Scotland and following a subsequent show in the city in 2004, a reviewer stated that “you’d rather hug him than hit him”, as he had embraced recovery by this point. Following the cessation of his use, Brand revealed through his stand-up performances that he introduced his drug dealer to Kylie Minogue during his time at MTV and masturbated a stranger in a public toilet for a television programme. In January 2014, Brand described his first experience with heroin as “blissful”.
