Like him or not, it’s hard to argue that Russell Brand can’t half cut someone down to size when the mood takes him, as it did when he appeared live on a morning programme in the US yesterday.
The often controversial comedian/actor was appearing as a guest on MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe’ (nothing to do with us don’t worry) to promote his comedy world tour, titled ‘The Messiah Complex’ and although it doesn’t take a lot to get Brand in the mood for mischief, the hosts of the show didn’t help themselves with an often rude line of questioning and even an ignorance of his presence that p*ssed Brand off.
The interview was fairly straightforward at first, but it soon descended into farce and Brand, quite correctly we should add, rebuked the three hosts present for their basic lack of manners and seeming inability to do their job, while also calling one of them a ‘shaft grasper’.
The clip in its entirety is worth a look but if you’re tight for time the really good stuff starts about four minutes in and by the time you reach the end you’ll see that Brand had destroyed them on their own turf and in some style too.
