Russell Brand\u2019s awkward run-in with Sir Bob Geldof has resurfaced following serious allegations of sexual assault against the comedian.<\/p>\n
The 48-year-old is currently facing accusations of rape and sexual assault that are said to be from a period between 2006 and 2013 \u2013 all of which he has since denied.<\/p>\n
While attending the NME awards back in 2006, Russell was slammed by the Diamond Smiles singer as he was accepting his gong on stage.<\/p>\n
Russell presented Sir Bob with his award and introduced the Live Aid star as \u2018Sir Bobby Gandalf\u2019, prompting quite the reaction.<\/p>\n
The Irish musician accepted his accolade from the Essex native and exclaimed: \u2018Russell Brand, what a c***\u2019, as he brushed past him on the way to the microphone.<\/p>\n
Following the tense moment, Russell hit back at the artist and joked that Sir Bob was \u2018such an expert in famine\u2019 because he had been \u2018dining out on I Don\u2019t like Mondays for 30 years\u2019.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
He told the audience: \u2018Bob Geldof there. Obviously an amazing man, to whom we have a lot to be grateful, not him calling me a c**t of course.\u2019<\/p>\n
That same year, the actor suffered yet another heated encounter with a celebrity as he was called out by singer Sir Rod Stewart after he claimed he slept with the star\u2019s daughter at the 2006 GQ Men Of The Year Awards.<\/p>\n
Almost a decade ago, the Get Him to the Greek star publicly upset Sir Rod when he took a swipe at his daughter Kimberly while collecting his award at the magazine\u2019s event.<\/p>\n
Russell ruffled feathers when he crudely declared to the audience at the time: \u2018Here\u2019s to Rod Stewart who had a go at me earlier this year for too much womanising.<\/p>\n
\u2018But then again I did have a go on his daughter.\u2019<\/p>\n
Sir Rod, now 78, didn\u2019t take kindly to Russell\u2019s claims and had his own say when he too took to the stage to receive his accolade.<\/p>\n

The Every Beat of My Heart singer called out the comedian and said: \u2018You went with my daughter, did you? Russell, stand up.\u2019<\/p>\n
Russell sheepishly attempted to explain himself and replied: \u2018I took her out for one evening,\u2019 to which Sir Rod demanded to know if he had behaved himself while in his daughter\u2019s company.<\/p>\n
\u2018I never touched that girl,\u2019 the former Big Brother presenter backtracked which prompted a response from the star that went like: \u2018F***ing right you didn\u2019t. You mustn\u2019t come up here and boast. I speak here as a father\u2019.<\/p>\n
Sharing Kimberly \u2013 now 44 \u2013 with his ex-wife Alana, 78, Sir Rod chatted about the heated exchange with the Evening Standard afterwards.<\/p>\n
He told the publication: \u2018[Russell] might be a bit of a player but he shouldn\u2019t boast. I never did. Russell\u2019s been a bit timid since I had my say.\u2019<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
The notorious back and forth has resurfaced following the findings of a joint investigation by The Times, The Sunday Times and Channel 4 Dispatches.<\/p>\n
Russell\u2019s former agency Tavistock Wood, commented on the allegations and said in a statement sent to Metro.co.uk: \u2018Russell Brand categorically and vehemently denied the allegation made in 2020, but we now believe we were horribly misled by him.<\/p>\n
\u2018TW has terminated all professional ties to Brand.\u2019<\/p>\n
