Katy Perry quote about 'controlling' Russell Brand resurfaces

cultureNov 10, 202614143

An old comment from Katy Perry calling ex-husband Russell Brand “controlling” during their 14-month marriage has resurfaced as new allegations and recent legal developments involving Brand have come to light. The resurfaced quote is being cited alongside coverage and social posts that reference Brand’s trial, conviction, and sentencing notes. Some posts accuse Perry of withholding or later monetizing information about Brand, citing a Daily Mail item, while others argue she should not be repeatedly pulled into coverage of Brand’s case. The resurfacing has revived public attention on what Perry said about their relationship and on whether she will make further public statements about what she witnessed.

Johnny Depp’s lawsuit against AH killed the momentum of the #MeToo movement & frightened survivors into silence. We are getting that momentum back — the Russell Brand conviction is evidence of that — so don’t let Depp back in the door so he can ruin everything again. Don’t see his disgusting movie.

Did folks honestly like Russell Brand? I think I missed that boat. I can’t name anything he’s done other than Forgetting Sarah Marshall and dating Katy Perry (who seems like an idiot anyway). Just thought of him as a moderately ugly guy who talked too loud. Anyway, he can fuck off forever.

I don’t know how you can even function in life with a brain that spits out shit like this

He was big on British panel shows (big fat quiz, often playing with Noel fielding) I was horrified at the Andrew sachs phone call on air. It was awful&tacky they both should have lost their jobs and never worked on tv again @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social @bbcnews-world-rss.bsky.social both were guilty

Didnt mind some his earlier radio stuff but just got a bit much. Hopeless, hopeless actor. Rightly charged, tried and convicted. Judge made the sentencing really clear. Done

I was surprised, fairly recently, to find out he wasn’t a magician.

Remember when Hollywood would be all like: That's a terrible name, change it and also don't be gross n' rapey or you're (jerks thum to side) outta here, chump! (being said by a slightly sloppy man with a paunch who has a big ol' cigar in his mouth oh crap just described Fred Mertz again)

Always figured he was big enough in England that we have to moderately know him here. Like Jimmy Carr. I don't know if that's actually true though

This piece about Johnny Depp's "comeback" includes some of my thoughts about #MeToo, accountability, & free speech: “[Amber] Heard will simply never be able to speak as freely as Depp is, and the fact that the trial happened at all made clear that this was always true.” www.cnn.com/2026/11/09/e...

Instead of warning women about who he was, Katy Perry sat on the information she knew about Russel Brand to monetize it after his conviction. Do not give this woman any of your attention or money. www.dailymail.com/news/article...

The way he spoke about and publically treated Katy Perry was so obviously abusive and misogynist but everyone giggled about it because she was an acceptable target. Men go out in public and sexually degrade their wives/exwives and people weigh up the woman instead of his behaviour.

Katy Perry was married to that rapist. For 14 months. Apparently, she witnessed one of the incidents he was tried on. She has hinted at having a shocking tale to tell. Fuck Katy Perry for not speaking up a very long time ago.

His ex wife is dating our beloved Justin Trudeau. Trudeau truly needs to wake up where Katy Perry is concerned. 🪶😡 www.cbc.ca/news/enterta...

I wish the American media would quit dragging Katy Perry into every blurb about Russell Brand. I’m not a fan, but why do women who get the hell out of dodge still get dragged into his jackassery. At the very least refer to her as astronaut Katy Perry.

Hearing the Russell Brand conviction reminds me of Danny Masterson and how Bijou Phillips divorced him like the minute he went to prison. I hope the same for Russell Brand's wife and I hope she feels safer and more secure with him behind bars. I also hope Katy Perry is ok even tho she kinda sucks
