‘Humiliating’: Why Aussie journo walked out on Russell Brand interview amid allegations
Daily Telegraph journalist Debbie Schipp has shared her awkward experience with Russell Brand, recounting to 2GB what happened that led her to walk out on an interview with the under-fire comedian.
Schipp’s story comes as Brand faces allegations of sexual assault following investigations by three British news organisations, The Sunday Times, The Times, and Channel 4’s “Dispatches”.
“I’m humiliated, I’m embarrassed, and I’m not paid enough to tolerate this,” Schipp said of her experience with Brand at the time.
