Brand's row with Norton over 'ex-missus' questions
Russell Brand took exception to Graham Norton's questions about his failed marriage to Katy Perry on the weekly chat show.
PA
Did you notice a slightly awkward atmosphere on The Graham Norton Show this week? We did. And now we know why.
According to a report in The Daily Star, a dispute between Russell Brand, who was on the show to promote new musical Rock Of Ages, and host Graham Norton erupted when Norton brought up Brand's 14-month marriage to pop singer Katy Perry, who had been on the show the previous week.
Norton claimed the issue "just came up". But Brand responded: "It did not come up, mate. You brought it up."
"He upped the stakes and stabbed me in the back," said Brand to fellow guests Emily Blunt and Paloma Faith, according to The Star's report.
The argument, which didn't make the broadcast edit of the show, continued when Brand claimed that Norton had upset his mother.
"My mum is here. She got upset earlier when you dragged up my marriage. I saw her cry," said Brand.
"That's reality because it's real people, Graham, that's my real mum. That's why I was a little bit embarrassed when I saw my mum crying."
"I came here to promote a film and you made my mum cry. I don't see you as that sort of person, Graham."
Norton's response to the upset comedien was simple. He said: "If I had not asked anything it would have been weird because Katy was on the show last week. That's the only reason."

Pot, kettle, black?? Did he not think Andrew Sachs was a REAL PERSON??? The arrogant idiot deserves everything he gets. Can't go bleating about it when it happens to you, Brand. That's double standards!
16/06/2012 22:33
You hypocritical b*stard Brand.... You didn't think anything of doing exactly the same to Andrew Sach's grand-daughter. Plus you somehow managed to feel aggrieved at that, too.....
16/06/2012 10:47
What an arrogant hypocrite Brand is!!!! Pot calling kettle black springs to mind. Has he no recall of the nasty sexually explicit innuendos and statements made over the radio by Jonathan Ross and himself??
He barracked the Sachs family with embarrassing,malicious and unwarranted comments about Andrew Sachs' grand-daughter-------behaved shamefully! If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen, Mr Russell Brand. The man who revels in the media when it suits him.
16/06/2012 22:32
Now perhaps he understands why there was such a reaction to his nasty attack on Andrew Sachs, pity he didnt think about it before the event.

russell brand didnt mind upseting someones dad with johnathan ross did he !
16/06/2012 11:53
Oh Boo hoo, Russell got upset because he was asked about his marriage. Good job it wasn't an unwarranted telephone call in the middle of the night bragging about who did what to his daughter.
Not so funny then Russell when its you on the receiving end is it.

Fcuk Off BRAND!!
so its ok to call an old man and tell him you have shagged his grand daughter but Norton can't mention your ex.. Double standards you reap what you sowe...
17/06/2012 10:32
Funny how when laughing and joking about sex with another persons granddaughter and upsetting the family in that process was fine but mention the split with his wife and that's too personal. Sounds like a bad case of hypocrisy to me!! Karma??
16/06/2012 10:40
What an idiotic spoilt creature Brand is!!!!! I would have thought that his past behaviour would have made is mother cry not a comment from Graham Norton!!!! if he doesn't like such comments he should get out of the entertainment business!
17/06/2012 17:32
Russell Brand ... Is that the same Russell Brand who got very lucky a few years ago ?
Didnt you make your Mum cry Russell ?
When you were a hopeless addict.
When you humiliated Andrew Sachs.
You of all people Russell ... ???
Carefull who you upset on the way up!!!
You will be meeting them on the way down.
A Verry Silly Young Man !

Norton is an old Queen and not a very good one at that.However Brand must be pretty dumb if he thought he could go on ANY chat show and not be questioned over Katie Perry. Who the hell is Brand anyway to say he about being upset? Him and the idiot Jonathan Ross never gave it a thought when they were phoning Andrew Sachs about doing things to his grandaughter. Hypocritical to say the least.Now Brand knows what it feels like to be humiliated.About time too.
16/06/2012 14:37
Maybe now he will think how the family felt when he made those stupid, so called funny, phone calls some time back, what goes around, comes around comes to mind !
16/06/2012 10:32
Brand is a no talent idiot........Why do people think he has talent.........Shove him of to a dark corner and forget him..He wont be missed....
16/06/2012 21:34
awww diddums..why don't these so called "personalities" like it when they get a dose of their own medicine ? People in glass houses etc.
17/06/2012 11:14
Tallentless toss pot,
funny how he dosent like it, andrew sacks was that not a bit personal ?
not funny,
16/06/2012 21:16
It didn't show the same compassion for Andrew Sachs ...
16/06/2012 12:02
........And this is coming from the overated, over hyped, big-head who, along with that other overated big-head, Jonathan Ross, thought absolutely nothing was wrong with picking up the telephone and upsetting someone else's parents.......!
This man is famous for being a complete ****, he should be dumped in the rubbish tip....!
17/06/2012 10:54
He upsets others much more and in the most grotesque way.WHO THE HELL DOES HE THINK HE IS! how did he get away with spouting obscene and graphic language down the phone to a pensioner without getting nicked. If he stops seeking attention he'll stop getting it. We'd all gain from that.HE'S A TALENTLESS TOOL!
16/06/2012 21:32
BRAND IF YOU CANT TAKE IT DONT GIVE IT . W.A.N.K.E.R .
Just go away you worthless no talent piece of crap!
