Since this we've seen a global economic collapse, America's first black President, the rise of China, widespread acceptance of same-sex marriage, Scotland almost left the UK, new threats emerging in Russia and the Middle East, Russell Brand got married and divorced, then became a Revolutionary! When you think about it, a lot has changed since you posted that comment 8 months ago.
this is like a boxing match. Two greats, having it out. Wit flying all over the place. Two great tennis players. verbal sparring. Russell as always, can hold his own against anyone. male or female. I love how he talks about Uma at the end.
j: "like a bearded lady" r: "jonathan, this is a remark designed to hurt my feelings" said with no hurt feelings damn, russell's quick, articulate, summed that up accurately AND called j.r. on this habit.
Eight years too late, but I'd say JR is a very generous interviewer and gave him a really good platform. I think they both did a great job. I don't really disagree though
Hilarious from start to finish. Something like this is unthinkable on US television. Imagine Leno or Letterman trying to keep up, let alone dart ahead as Ross sometimes does.
I think this is the best of Russell Brand here, as an entertainer anyway. He looks great, he's hilarious, he's full of life...you can see he's something special.
"Jonathan this was a remark designed to hurt my feelings" oh god he has me in stitches just with that line, Thats it im definitely re-reading all his books starting slightly later on today
Russell made a joke about Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, but he would be great in that role, i would definitely see it if he played Willy Wonka!
thebooky161 you’re right... he’s not just hilarious, but he has a social conscience too. Above all, though, he’s fantastically sharp witted and I suspect, an exceptionally kind person! I’m fat, over 50 and can’t even pretend I have all my own teeth... but I’d give him one 😂🤣😂🙈🙊🙉🤗😍👍
interesting to see the transformation of russ over time. here you can really see his attempts to blurr the lines of gender and sex. Definitely far cry of the more masculine russ we see nowadays. Still love this guy.
One of the things I find super refreshing about Russell is how he talks about women. He jokes, obviously, but you can tell he genuinely *likes* women. As in, beyond a sleazy dudebro attitude. He really seems to enjoy the company of women beyond the opportunity for sex.
How things have changed - can you imagine there being an act on primetime BBC called "4 poofs and a piano" these days? It seems crazy now, but was totally normal just a few years ago.
Wowser, made a WHILE ago! Fun to see this Russell, sharp dresser, clever wordsmith, and damned smart. Tryna peg where this falls in that timeline of Jonathan and Russell's lil issue with the Beeb...
wow, only knew Jonathon Ross by his emceeing on Fool Us - where he's very good -- but this hosting is great -- what a long & witty interview! For me it puts all the American talk show hosts in the dust. It takes something to keep up with Russell. Nice going, British TV. (yeah, i'm a yank.)
Yes, me. I need to stop before I become addicted. I've watched around 3 or 4 interviews so far. The irony, as Russell talks about addiction in this interview.
Americans have NOT seen enough of Russell Brand to appreciate him. He's brilliant, funny, attractive - I could go on. I have a feeling Chelsea Handler hates him because he wasn't attracted to her!
Who is also on a Russel Brand interview spree?
2018 here, having my 3rd RB spree
every couple months i fin myself having a RB spree hahaha
birdstuckinchimney z
2020
Meeeee
such a soft voice he has here... and comes across kind of sweet and vulnerable...
He's still insanely attractive but i'm ngl this is my favourite era of Russell :') gorgeous haha
I appreciate that you did not lie, even 3 years on
times have changed so much since this interview. EVERYTHING changed after 2006. social media, social attitudes, technology, economy, tv, music etc.

And since then the UK has begun the process to leave the EU and North Korea is threatening war with the US and its reality show president.
Let's add a global pandemic on top of that.
And war in europe as well as a new monarch
Russell is so damn funny and quick. He kills me. His honesty is so refreshing, I love it.
Russell's voice at age 30. Wonderful. Unique. Love the way he says to Jonathan, "Thanks for being so nice to me."
I like how in most of Russell brand interview they start by thinking they can humiliate him then they soon realize they fucked up big time

j: "like a bearded lady"

i could honestly just sit and listen to him ramble on and on for hours about absolutely nothing.
Ooooomg he's like a modern day Jack Sparrow
Aww he's such a kid at hear. "Thanks for being so nice to me " he replied after Jonathan Ross complimented his talent for comedy. Makes me smile :3
haha he's changed since then, I think the best way to describe it is that he's hardened a little but I still love him just as much
He's basically become a sage now.
hardened? certainly fuzzier
This was 15 years ago! Damn time flies.
This was 10 years ago...can't believe how fast it went.
Innit

This interview is pure gold and also legendary
Can't get enough of this guy. Such a great way with words, cracks me up every time.
I am in love with Russell Brand, He is so charming and charasmatic yet cheeky :)
Hilarious from start to finish. Something like this is unthinkable on US television. Imagine Leno or Letterman trying to keep up, let alone dart ahead as Ross sometimes does.
he is so quick and n the ball with his humour! love him
They do seem to be on a higher intellectual plain than Americans. Very sharp stuff !
joeyboogenz True... but there are smart Americans too. :-)
Plane ;-)

This has got to be his funniest interview helped along by a brilliant interviewer
This guy is a national treasure love him
the evolution of Russell Brand; a bit of a revolutionary in 2014.
Kind of like reading a good Charles Dickens novel it is!!!! Best Russell Brand interview ever.
"Jonathan this was a remark designed to hurt my feelings" oh god he has me in stitches just with that line, Thats it im definitely re-reading all his books starting slightly later on today
"Jonathan, this is a remark designed to hurt my feelings"
I actually find him hilarious :) His comedy timing and tone is awesomeeeee :D
Johnathan can fuckin keep up with anyone.. holy shit.

Brilliance. Thank you guys.🙏🏾
Is anyone else on a Russell Brand interveiw marothon?

TV gold.
omg! Russell's eyes are massive! i love his lovely eyes ...........sigh* love him
Love this interview!
جرح فتاة hi
Russell made a joke about Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, but he would be great in that role, i would definitely see it if he played Willy Wonka!
He is so quick witted....Just like Robin Williams....They always ask him dumb things, yet he's so intelligent....
One of the funniest guys ever. I know most people think he's a twat but I think he's hilarious!

Poetry ... a delight. Thanks.
Love your look Russell! Great interview.
Imagine how he would act if he was high , oh my god...
CptLbcyo Maybe he is in this vid? Lol
I can't remember what years he was using.
I wish he was my friend )':
Haha love him so much
3:00
Ian McKellen was so into it...
thanks!
this has been my life for about 5 years lmao
i actually love russell brand now, and i can see who frankie cocozza's style icon is

Oh dear…

Just love Russel, And I think Him and Johnathan compliments each other.
Russell here looks sooo calm ,but now this fellow is sooooooooooooo laud
"S&M Willy Wonka" LOL!
Wowser, made a WHILE ago! Fun to see this Russell, sharp dresser, clever wordsmith, and damned smart.
Tryna peg where this falls in that timeline of Jonathan and Russell's lil issue with the Beeb...
WaY before
Perfect
I love his hair like this :)
Russell for prime minister :)
We'd all be fucked. He's too liberal .
Redfield 100% You can never be too liberal mate
I was just thinking that! Russell for PM 🙌
wow, only knew Jonathon Ross by his emceeing on Fool Us - where he's very good -- but this hosting is great -- what a long & witty interview! For me it puts all the American talk show hosts in the dust. It takes something to keep up with Russell. Nice going, British TV. (yeah, i'm a yank.)

Him and Justin Hawkins act very alike. They're both absolute sweethearts.
Unbelievably gorgeous in every way
Blimey!
YES!!!!!!!
I always think of him as the real life jack sparrow.
Wock and woll
i love russell! A Katy Perry marriage makes me think he did so for publicity, he was too smart for her.
No, I think he became enlightened after marriage and couldnt look back
Americans have NOT seen enough of Russell Brand to appreciate him. He's brilliant, funny, attractive - I could go on. I have a feeling Chelsea Handler hates him because he wasn't attracted to her!
I can't believe he made that tears and spitting comment
Craig Ferguson does a good job with him. Then again he's Scottish (but still technically an American talk show host)
STOP IT I,MMMMM LOVE LOVEEEEE
Russell loves to cuddle? So do I!! I'll be right over.
Haha when Russell used to do those hand flourishes!
Just watched 'The Libertine'. How appropriate lol
YESSS!!!!!!!!!!!!
they play off each other well XD hehe
Always banter between rossy and russell brilliant
Russell is violently beautiful
after the Fifi Box interview i went crazy
lol this is a masterpiece
He was hotter back then.
We'll put it out there, never know, maybe someday it'll happen!!
"draconian" a word I will use for the next few weeks attempting to bring it into the Modern.
9 years later, it's used in a daily basis, sadly 😔
Every thing changed after 2006
Je t'aime.
Clearly so high! Oh I do love him!
LOVE Russell, I see the Patsy Stone about him often....
Weirdly, i am right now!!😂😂😂
Stroke the furry wall
His face is beautiful.
YES! Haha it's the best
o yeah, Russ is so free and WITTY, And Jonny LOVES IT
God bless him, he is doing very well,🌹❤️
The start of a friendship that would eventually lead them both to be fired from the BBC.
Does anyone know what episode of big brother's big mouth that was at the beginning? I keep watching that bit over and over
I thought totally the same when he said that xD
He's very funny. Ever so.
Jonathan and Russell it was love at first sight
Quick wit and good delivery, I don't care for his movies though.
