Kristen Bell said she enjoyed her time working with the comedian.

Discussing their offscreen dynamic, the mom-of-two noted Brand "didn't try to mess with me or get in my pants. He knew I would lop his n--- off."

In another chat, Bell once again implied that she had to send him a message. "I made it really clear from the beginning that I would sock him in the b---- if he tried anything," she shared. "So he was intimidated, truth be told."

However, the Veronica Mars alum insisted she "loved working with Russell."

"I may be the only woman in the world who would shout that from the rooftops, but I did. There's a secret Russell that he doesn't show many people — one that's really kind and considerate," she continued. "True, he did say he found me repulsive and grotesque, but he realized saying stuff like that just got my funny bone. He's a really sweet boy."

"Amidst this litany of astonishing, rather baroque attacks are some very serious allegations that I absolutely refute," he stated. "These allegations pertain to the time when I was working in the mainstream, when I was in the newspapers all the time, when I was in the movies and, as I have written about extensively in my books, I was very, very promiscuous."

"Now during that time of promiscuity the relationships I had were absolutely, always consensual," Brand claimed. "I was always transparent about that then, almost too transparent, and I am being transparent about it now as well."
