We don't have a legal right to perform stand-up in a club, nor is there a legal right to be able to upload videos to Youtube. If I own a pub and want to ban Russell Brand based on no evidence at all, I'm allowed to do so.
Russell Brand DOES have a legal right to bodily autonomy and freedom to walk around the world etc. So to take that away DOES take a legal trial and a jury etc.
Private entities get to make the call based on whatever they like whether someone gets to perform on their website or in their venue. If I think someone is "dodgy" or whatever, I can bar them from performing in my club and the same applies to Youtube.
In life sometimes there are consequences for behaving badly and Russell is finally facing some of them.
