Russell Brand just exudes cheekiness.
The brash comedian was spotted looking smug and stylish at Los Angeles International Airport on Wednesday. He seemed to be in high spirits despite recently cancelling gigs in the Middle East for his new comedy tour after learning that his safety might be compromised. Russell was dressed in his usual ostentatious fashion in all its scarf, chest hair, and silk blazer glory.
The British comic was scheduled to perform his new show "Messiah Complex" in Abu Dhabi and Lebanon. The material covers figures including Malcolm X, Mahatma Gandhi, and Jesus. The Forgetting Sarah Marshall actor appeared on MSBC's Morning Joe a few weeks ago to promote the world tour, but instead made a fool out of host Mika Brzezinski and panelists Katty Kay and Brian Shactman.
Russell went on the defensive after Mika and her panelists referred to him in the third person ... in his presence. "You're talking about me as if I'm not here and as if I'm an alien," he said before schooling the journalists on their interviewing and news reporting skills. You don't want to mess with Russell.
