Russell Brand jokes about death rumour

Russell Brand jokes about death rumour
Russell's not dead!
 

Justin Bieber's had them, Lady Gaga's had them, even David Beckham's had them - no no, not nits. We mean celebrity death rumours.

And this weekend it was Russell Brand's turn. Instead of letting the rumour breeze over and eventually getting his publicist to deny - as some celebrities do, he decided to have a little fun with it.

In fine Russell Brand style, the hairy comedian went onto Twitter to retweet a false story that he had died in a snowboarding accident in Zermatt, Switzerland.

Afterwards, he joked: "Bloody hell. I better cancel the milk"

Bizarrely enough, Russell isn't even the first celebrity rumoured to have died in Zermatt. Eddie Murphy was TWICE rumoured to have died at the skiing resort.

In other, more positive news, Russell's show Brand X is back for a second series and will begin in October. Audiences should expect some quite shocking material.

Though not quite Frankie Boyle, Russell does love a bit of controversy, and apparently got some of his audience doing some very risque things. Upon discovering that he had porn stars in his audience, he got them to perform a sex show.

Just before they went through with it, some mums threatened to walk out, so he stopped the shenanigans.

According to The Sun, he said: "This presents too much of a moral dilemma for us to explore here about the proximity of pornography in reality." Riiiiight.
