One look at him, and you'll know that he's an atypical guy. And now he's been officially titled as the most eccentric guy around by a magazine. CS gives you more dope on Russell Brand, the comedian, actor, columnist, author and RJ.
In January 2009 Russell revealed his plans to give up sex, stating he was bored of 'meaningless sexual encounters'. Russell has previously claimed he sleeps up to three women a day.
Russell caused quite a stir with hoax phone calls to the police on his recent tour. As part of his act he would call police with information regarding minor offences reported in local newspapers. He once called up saying that he had information that could help locate a missing statue.
Russell Brand was arrested for stripping at the 2003 May Day protest in London.
Russell dresses in a flamboyant bohemian fashion. His current style consists of black eyeliner, drainpipe jeans, Beatle boots, and long, shaggy, backcombed hair.
He was once quoted as saying, "Even as a junkie I stayed true to vegetarianism. I shall have heroin, but I shan't have a hamburger. What a sexy little paradox."
