deadline, and jokingly ask her:   Can I go and have sex now?'  But she also told the jury that  he never seemed happy after sex,  and would often appear  depressed  after various encounters.  Women would come over and it was obvious it was for sex,  the court heard from Berger, who added that she would then just let herself out.

Brand would  often meet women online  using websites like Myspace, she said, and after his comedy gigs, where he  was like a peacock… And women always approached him. 

Berger also said Brand asked her to approach women for their phone numbers for him. She did, but said she wouldn't again and that he never asked her after that. Another time, Berger told the court that she was bringing Brand's mother and then-girlfriend to meet them but was told not to take them to the green room as he was having sex with another woman at the time. At another event, Berger said she went ot the toilet and Brand was receiving oral sex in the next cubicle.

She quit working for Brand when she was  sick of him and burned out,  and saw women being mistreated by him. Berger added:  I never witnessed Russell Brand doing anything against the law, and I never had anyone disclose to me about [anything against the law]… Though I have worked with lots of celebrities before and seen lots of people normalising bad behaviour, this was on another level.

 I think everyone else normalising and dismissing Brand's behaviour made me think,  I guess this is just the way it is,'  Berger added.

Again, he denies all of the charges. The trial could last up to six weeks.
