Russell Brand, Britney Spears, And The Tale Of One 'Terrifying Vagina'
Posted by Defamer Hollywood at 5:00 AM on September 6, 2008
Though ladykiller VMAs host Russell Brand is certainly no stranger to female anatomy, his elephant-starring VMAs commercial with Britney Spears was nearly waylaid when he became obsessed with, as he puts it, one "terrifying vagina." In a chat with the Ebert-usurping Ben Lyons, Brand details how the elephant's mammoth sexual orifice nearly blew his mind, causing him to be late to an initial meeting with Spears (and subsequently leading the confused pop singer to ID him on-air as "Russell Brown"). With colorful anecdotes like these, the Defamer liveblog of this Sunday's VMAs should be a breeze; most of all, we can't wait until an onstage Brand takes the Jonas Brothers aside to demonstrate the colorful things an ambitious trio is really capable of.

Russell Brand was totally laugh-out-loud hysterically funny. Unfortunately most of the audience (not being used to actually funny, daring stuff --this is America, after all) seemed not to get it. But what was most pathetic was this idiotic gossip blogger Perez Hilton, in his MTV interview after the show. Poor Perez was OFFENDED, you see, that Russell Brand actually poked fun at the Jonas Brothers' "Promise Rings". And this same Perez guy (not known for his wit, or his intellect) is actually HOSTING an upcoming MTV awards show in LIVERPOOL, of all places -- a city where they have many, many actually funny people, like Russell Brand.

Noel is cute. But he can't do ad lib like Russell.
It's not easy turning an Eva Longoria interview into something entertaining. It requires a special gift.

@NoGrumpys: Russell Brand has BLACK toilet paper in his bathroom at home, which his girlfriend is not allowed to use due to its cost. Fyi.

@NoGrumpys: Actually, there are a lot of thick-necked, rugby-playing men in England but I think they don't travel very often. The hetero but confusingly camp types are considered better ambassadors and more exportable for some reason.
