David Arquette Sets Things Straight
Russell Brand Scored His Life with Women’s Cries
Russell Brand Scored His Life with Women’s Cries
Russell Brand stopped by to promote his latest book, ‘Booky Wook 2,’ and told the crew he always knew he wanted the power of celebrity: “It’s the dominant cultural force of our age.”
When he finally got to the top, he enjoyed the spoils as much as could–but maybe too much: “I was addicted to drugs and sex. I was crazy…my life’s scored by women’s cries.”
Howard asked how someone so sex-crazed could be engaged to someone with a busy tour schedule like Katy Perry, so Russell explained: “We schedule little breaks in there.”
Russell said monogamy was a welcome respite from the threesomes he used to have with his radio partner, Matt: “We didn’t touch each other–not that there’s anything wrong with that–but he was at one end and I was at the other end. I did accidentally get sperm on him once. And he tried to get revenge. He chased after me like it was a water pistol.”
Some Were Supermodels
Asked about the time he dated Kate Moss, Russell admitted he remembered little of the affair: “It’s all just a bit of a blur, really. I don’t think my mind was recording it because it was happening so often.” Russell said he’d only just begun to break out when Kate tracked him down: “I felt like a butler or something. I didn’t feel like an equal…I was on dates with her, but I just sort of sat with my purse on my lap like, ‘Thanks, mum.'” Life with Kate–and in her bed–was surreal: “It’s intimidating. It’s disorienting. It’s exciting. It’s an amazing, amazing time.”
The Future Mrs. Brand
Howard asked if Katy Perry shaved downstairs, so Russell laughed: “Everything is under complete control in that area. In both our lives. I look like a 6’2″ naked baby.” Russell hoped he wouldn’t be the only baby in their new home together: “I’d love to have a baby. Not straight away, though. I’ve got to concentrate on the ol’ work. I want that. Some stability. Some domesticity.”
