Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 46,530 views a day, 20 times a normal first day on this channel (2,326).

Russell Brand's creepiest TV moments of all time

Liz Hayes is beside a golf cart when Russell Brand kisses and grabs her, then jokes about undoing her bra. The 60 Minutes Australia footage is among the television appearances Page Six has assembled in a compilation published after his criminal trial.

Page Six reports, citing the BBC, that Brand was found guilty of rape and three counts of sexual assault in the UK. It also reports that he was acquitted of two other rape charges and a count of attempted indecent assault.

The compilation moves between red carpet interviews and television sets. A Morning Joe appearance from 2013 shows Brand commenting on Mika Brzezinski's low-cut dress and later telling her to lose her ring. These are archival broadcast encounters, not footage of the offenses covered by the verdict.

The upload reached about 31,000 views in its first 11 hours, far above the usual first-day audience for Page Six's Shorts. Its comment section was also substantially busier than a typical first day, while the channel's overall daily views remained below their usual pace.
