Russell Brand was called out by Sir Rod Stewart at the 2006 GQ Men Of The Year Awards after telling the audience he had slept with the singer's daughter Kimberly.When taking to the stage at the bash to collect his gong, Brand made a crude remark saying: 'Here's to Rod Stewart who had a go at me earlier this year for too much womanising.'Before adding: 'But then again I did have a go on his daughter.'But then as Sir Rod collected his own trophy, he made a point of blasting Brand for his comment.Addressing the comedian directly, he said: 'You went with my daughter, did you? Russell, stand up.'Brand then seemingly lost all his bravado and could be heard sheepishly mumbling: 'I took her out for one evening.' Russell Brand was called out by Sir Rod Stewart at the 2006 GQ Men Of The Year Awards after telling the audience he had slept with the singer's daughter Kimberly Brand then seemingly lost all his bravado and could be heard sheepishly mumbling: 'I took her out for one evening' (Kimberly and Russell pictured in 2006) A fuming Sir Rod asked if Brand had behaved himself on said evening, leading the former Big Brother host to backtrack and say: 'I never touched that girl.''F****** right you didn't,' Rod snapped. 'You mustn't come up here and boast. I speak here as a father.'Rod – who has eight children in total – shares Kimberly and son Sean with his ex-wife Alana.Brand reportedly attempted to make amends following the tense moment and the pair could be seen sharing a smile following the awards ceremony. Rod later told the Evening Standard: '[Russell] might be a bit of a player but he shouldn't boast. I never did. Russell's been a bit timid since I had my say.'Brand clearly hadn't learned his lesson from a similar incident with Bob Geldof over his daughter Peaches, who died age 25 in 2014.In 2006, Brand was reportedly romantically linked to Peaches, the teenage daughter of musician and Live 8 organiser Sir Bob.Although reports suggested the pair had flirted and briefly been involved, neither confirmed a relationship, and Peaches reportedly indicated that things had not gone beyond flirting. Brand clearly hadn't learned his lesson from a similar incident with Bob Geldof over his daughter Peaches, who died age 25 in 2014The situation attracted further attention at the 2006 NME Awards, where Brand was hosting the ceremony. When introducing Bob Geldof to the stage, Brand mocked his name, calling him 'Sir Bobby Gandalf'.Bob responded by publicly calling Brand a particularly offensive name, prompting laughter and cheers from the audience. Brand continued the exchange with further jokes about Geldof's career.The confrontation was subsequently associated with reports of Brand's connection to Peaches, although there is no firm evidence that Geldof's anger was specifically motivated by his daughter's reported involvement with the comedian. Unlike the infamous Rod Stewart incident, where Brand explicitly joked about sleeping with Kimberley Stewart in front of her father, there is no established evidence that Brand made a similar sexual boast about Peaches.The incident nevertheless became part of Brand's history of public clashes with celebrity fathers and the families of women he had reportedly dated.In a similar now infamous event, Brand and fellow celebrity Jonathan Ross left sexually explicit messages on actor Andrew Sachs's answerphone about Sachs's granddaughter, Georgina Baillie, with whom Brand had been involved.The incident became known as Sachsgate and caused a major broadcasting scandal. This week, Brand was sentenced to ten and a half years behind bars after being found guilty of rape and three counts of sexual assault This week, Brand was sentenced to ten and a half years behind bars after being found guilty of rape and three counts of sexual assault. Brand was convicted of raping a 21-year-old fan he picked out of the crowd after one of his Hammersmith Apollo gigs in 2009. He was also found guilty of the sexual assault of an MTV worker at a party in Soho. But he was cleared of orally raping her in a toilet afterwards.The born-again Christian, who said he wore the 'full armour of God' in court, was also found guilty of sexually assaulting a Capital Radio worker after encountering her in a corridor in 2005.He was further convicted for sexually assaulting a Channel 4 employee during a forced massage in 2009. He was cleared of two charges of rape and one of attempted indecent assault.Brand now also faces fresh accusations of raping two more women, including a 16-year-old schoolgirl. The Crown Prosecution Service is seeking to bring further charges.The entertainment industry also faces several questions after Brand boasted that his BBC boss, Lesley Douglas, was 'incredibly tolerant' of his inappropriate sexual behaviour while he was a star presenter, as well as Channel 4 bosses who turned a blind eye.
