Although reformed sex-addict pioneer Russell Brand is ready to tie the knot with “I Kissed a Girl” singer Katy Perry, it doesn’t prevent him from living vicariously through other philandering fools like Tiger Woods and Jesse James.
At Thursday’s Victoria’s Secret swim party, Brand was asked about his take on the two latest cheating scandals that rocked pop culture, and in his slyly-coquettish way, Brand replied:
“I like them! [James and Woods]… They seem like nice guys.”
I dunno, man. Doesn’t exactly sound like a man in love to me, especially coming from someone who’s admitted that he had a sexual addiction in the past, am I right?
Brand claims that he’s leaving the wedding planning to his fiancee and states that she’s the one in control of everything, anyway.
Assuming this is true, Katy, I’d keep a shorter leash on your man after these kind of comments, but then again, who knows. Maybe all of these “accidentally” exposed cheating scandals are the new black and Katy’ll actually be into it.
What do you guys think — unabashed honesty or a ploy to reinforce the whole, zany, oddball mystique?
sounds like a joke to me. what exactly would you expect a comedian to say when asked about something like that. of course they are gonna make fun.
It’s just a quick, off the mark response to a stupid question. That’s what we brits do, if u ask a stupid question, you get a stupid answer but with a bit of sarcastic humour behind it, a bit of a laugh so to speak, shits and giggles you might say. Lol.
bahaha indeed :)
Clearly a joke. Expecting him to answer this question earnestly would be stupid. He’s a comedian.
Maybe they are really nice guys. Guys that are just lucky in the sack. Women can have a closet full of shoes and purses. Guys like this just collect poontang.
Polluted poontang too, perhaps. Maybe that’s what the phrase “Bring it on home to me” really refers to.
Maybe if their wives will just dump them, Tiger and Jesse can go back to their favorite hobby, courting STDs as fast as they can.
Being a cheater doesn’t preclude you from being a nice guy.
Also I find it laughable that you think it’s ok to talk about someone keeping their lover on a short leash to keep the faithful. If they want to stray, they’ll stray, and being possessive and controlling makes for a bad relationship.
And being a decent speller doesn’t preclude you from being a dumbass either. Did you miss the part about him being a “reformed sex addict?” Once an addict, always an addict.
First off, the ‘sex addict’ condition is an invention.
Unfortunately, most people don’t like to be frank about sex. Banging lots of broads or dudes seems kind of trashy for some reason. Banging them while supposedly in a relationship seems trashier.
Medicalizing something implies that it can be treated, whether or not it can be cured.
… and this whole ‘once an addict always an addict’ thing? Hahaha! There’s no such thing as sex addiction (see above). It’s just part of being a normal human being. Some people eventually curb their desires in order to maintain a healthy monogamous relationship with one person, but that doesn’t mean they never want to be with other people or aren’t tempted.
If you think this isn’t true, then you’ll confirm who the ‘dumbass’ really is. Simplistic bitch.
LOL There’s no such thing as a sex addiction? Then I guess there’s no such thing as a gambling addiction, there’s so such diagnosis as OCD or ADHD. Right? That’s what you’re saying you fucktard.
All of those behaviors fall under compulsive behavior which is a TREATED medical condition.
But you probably didn’t even go to college, did you.
“Simplistic” twat.
Well, I’m going to attempt to avoid the crazy amount of ad hominem in this chain and present a few facts.
01) When the American Psychological Association published the first DSM in the ’50s, homosexuality was listed as a mental illness. It wasn’t removed until 1973. The WHO listed homosexuality as an illness in 1979 and removed it in 1990. Lesson: People make mistakes; the stuff psychologists come up with to place a framework on mental behavior is fuzzy at best.
02) “Sexual Addiction” isn’t an official diagnosis in either the ICD-10 (WHO) or DSM-IV. The ICD-10 lists “hypersexuality”, which I fit. I, however, do not consider myself a sex addict. I fit because I’m a classic satyr; as soon as I’m done with sex, I’m ready to go again.
03) The poster stated that [because] there is no hypersexuality [therefore] the previous poster was stating there was no OCD or ADHD diagnosis. This is false logic.
04) College is the new High School. I see college graduates (at the doctoral level) all the time (at work) and they are, I assure you, not much better educated than high school students were 30 years ago. Colleges are money-making enterprises not purveyors of education. (This refers to the USA college system, not other countries. I have no idea where they’re concerned.)
As for my own opinion: I think the idea of “sex addiction” could be codified into a compulsion and treated. My guess would be it has to do with low self esteem.
I liked your post. I liked it so much I just jacked off. For the third time today.
What Russell Brand’s remark shows you is that he will think of himself as a “nice” guy even while/when he cheats.
Zero awareness on his part of what keeping your promises are (or is he going to leave the ‘honor’ phrase out of his wedding vows?) , let alone empathy for the partner who he will have shamelessly lied to.
However, any woman who doesn’t see the red flags with this guy – and hooks up with him – is just blindly waiting for it to happen. Not like she should be surprised when it does.
Harken back to when Denise Richards married Charlie Sheen and said she didn’t know about his past.
Only to have it clearly play out yet again.
I give it six months.
I’m British, it’s called sarcasm.
It’s pronounced “humour”.
You mean spelled? Humor and humour are pronounced the same unless you have a different accent.
Umm…. hello? BadRomance wrote “humour” because they learnt to write using British spelling.
Um… hello? The discussion is over pronunciation, not spelling. But seriously, it’s GREAT that you know about British spelling.
we spell it that way in Canada too – due to the obvious English relationship.
Colour, neighbourhood, etc.
He’s a stand-up comedian. He makes jokes. That’s the point…
Actually, even the title of this post is beyond stupid. I’m assuming it’s a slow news day so you have to try and make a post out of nothing to meet your quota or whatever. Surely that is the only reason you’ve written a post this dumb.
Wow, you’re just a bitch. On the rag tonight or something? Christ on ice. Can you do any better?
Hmm, no I’d say that Rosita is on the mark. I bet you’re just Sarah using a different display name, lol.
I concur with H. Rosita is right on the mark.
Funny H, for a post that’s supposed to be dumb and uninteresting you sure haven’t avoided on commenting on it fucking forty times. But then, this coming from someone who’s never heard of mental illness.
Maybe he didnt want to get into their private lives and rag on them. they and their families are already going through a hard time. Im going through a break up now where my bf messed up and i cant take any more ppl commenting on it.
can we please all take a moment to admire how hot katy perry is?
I don’t get what she sees in him.. He looks like an alert Latino British Feret.., but then she’s not the Queen of England herself. Most manly British men don’t like frills of decorating and planning gushings of matrimony to mar their concerns.. so he separates himself from the bridal fray and .. which is a blessing considering the foolish way he looks like most of the time.
Footy better than love for British blokes
A new study has found British men show far more loyalty, commitment, and self-sacrifice towards their favourite soccer team than towards their partners.
The national survey of around 2,000 men found at least 94 per cent said they would never stop loving their team, no matter how bad it was.
In contrast 52 per cent said they would gladly ditch a relationship that was not going well.
One psychologist has said if men showed the same fidelity, commitment, self-sacrifice and honesty toward their partners, the divorce rate would be cut by half overnight.
However, the study did find soccer provided a way for men to show emotion.
Nearly two-fifths admitted they had cried tears of joy or despair over soccer, while almost a third said it had been crucial in teaching them to bond with other men.
“alert Latino British ferret”….holy hell, you completely nailed it!
she’s not the Queen of England herself
Is this supposed to be an insult?
Have you seen the Queen of England? I mean, thank god.
Haha, good point.
Hello, she’s in her 80’s. When she was younger, she was rather pretty. At least compared to the rest of the royals.
Besides, I don’t think it was looks she was referring too.
calm down, its a joke love
I was agreeing with him/her. Obviously.
I believe she was talking about Sarah and the post, not your comment.
I hate this post. You suck.
I LOVE the dress though…
that is exactly what i thought when i read this – kp looks great, dress looks amazing on her
Lazily saying the opposite of what you mean is humour.
Haven’t you read a post by molls?
what does she see in him
He’s hilarious. :)
I’m sure they are nice to other people, just not to Elin and Sandra B.
It’s not like cheaters are bad human beings they are simply not made for
monogamous relationships.
They still deserve kick in the balls….
I wonder what her Katy’s parents think of Russell?
Uhm, that’s sarcasm.
woooooo!!!I came acorss a great hot cougar dating site.
If you put “SEEK” and “COUGAR” together, then you will get the url.
It’s a nice and free place for Younger- Women and Older Men, or Older Women and Younger Men, to- interact with each other. Maybe you wanna check out or- tell your friends
It’s all sarcasm, come on now.
I like that Katy Perry is living dangerously by wearing a strapless dress. Even though it’s a picture I keep expecting to see boobies any second. ;)
And as for him….actually I really don’t care what he meant.
hm… i don’t think i like Sarah.
um. this post is a stretch. it was obviously a joke and him probably not wanting to really get involved.
dey rilly meant for each other!
katy camille s ryt dey r meant 4 each other!
Russell and Katy…my…my…my…seems he has the most to lose here….prob not a good match….yea, 6 months.
