Simply 17 favourite things people are saying about Russell Brand right now
To be filed under ‘developments we didn’t see coming’ Russell Brand appears to be going permanently viral on Twitter right now, thanks largely to a video in which he shared his thoughts (such as they are) on Kamala Harris and the US presidency.
Don’t feel the need to watch it, we just didn’t want you to think we were making this stuff up.
Kamala Harris for President?

And not only because of that, there was also this lengthy exposition, only a short section of which is featured here, which included not one but two comedy schoolboy errors.
And we mention it again because it’s got people sharing all kinds of thoughts – well, invariably quite similar thoughts in fact – about the former presenter of Big Brother’s Big Mouth, and these 17 people might very well say it best.

I must say as a long-standing Russell Brand hater I have felt like someone whose favourite niche indie band is now selling out stadium tours.

Lot of ‘thick person’s idea of a smart person’ here. He means melanin not melatonin men have X chromosones too, and a pyyrhic victory is not ever something you aim for, it’s an unintended effect. Like pivoting from sex pest to political guru, perhaps. pic.twitter.com/SjnTGm7fb8

Lets talk about eloquence, and how people think it’s using big words, when actually it’s about clarity of expression. Russell Brand uses lots of words (incorrectly, like pyrrhic) to create a word salad, while Rob uses language to eloquently state his exact point in 7 words https://t.co/EFPQX5dlGF
