After a year on-air as the wickedly funny host of BBC radio, the comedian Russell Brand was let out of the studio this week, his material branded "lascivious smut" by the broadcasting giant.
It's probably no surprise that NYLON disagrees. We'll have a complete in-print interview with Mr. Brand next month, in the winter issue of NYLON Guys.
But if you can't wait that long, don't worry - here's an exclusive clip of Russell himself, only on NYLON TV. We'll drink to that.

So I read Russell Brands Booky Wooky and all I can give him credit for is having an itneresting life. Other than that I find him incredibly annoying. I was out in London for almost 2 years and he annoyed me then, now he's crossed the pond and annoying me again. Can I not get any piece from this man!!! He's got style, but his hair and that poof at the back drives me nuts. But good for him for honing his style.

I absolutely love Russell Brand, and I think that what he did at the VMA's was brilliant and ballsy.

I prefer Noel Fielding, but can't help enjoying to see how Russell Brand manages to annoy people over and over. I think I am becoming a fan.

I have been a fan of Ol'Russ for a long while now. Albeit he has been wearing the same clothes for two years or more now. Guess he's just trying to promulgate his image. I wondered as well about his Winklepickers(shoes) a while back and got em' on Ebay(for cheap) if you can believe that!

I can't help but love Mr. Brand. I won't admit that to my friends, but I like that he's unabashedly rediculous. Very intriguing.
