Russell Brand Flirting with Britney Spears
A new promotional video for upcoming 2009 Video Music Awards has been released.
The clip features Russell Brand, who will return as the host at the event, and famous songstress Britney Spears.
Britney Spears and Russell Brand flirting telepathically as a promotion for this year’s VMAs.
Britney is actually desperate to become Brand’s date at the annual awards show, which will be broadcast live on MTV September 13 at 9 P.M. ET. “I wonder if he’ll invite me,” she thinks to herself. “I mean, I can obviously get an invite, but it would be nice for Russell to invite me personally, now that we’re friends and all.”
As for Russell, who is shown staying in a hotel room, he worries that he may have ruined his chances with her at the last year’s event, during when he criticized Jonas Brothers’ purity rings. “I hope I didn’t balls it up with her last time. Some of those things I said could have been construed as offensive. I hope she don’t think ill of me,” the comedian thinks to himself.
The spot ends with Brand realizing that he can hear everything Spears is thinking and that maybe it works both ways. Of course, that leads Brand to think of only inappropriate ideas for the pop star. “Britney,” he thinks, hoping she can hear him. “This is the voice of your mind. Go to Russell’s hotel room and abandon yourself. Give yourself to him, Britney. Sleep with Russell!”
The real voices in Britney’s head have told her to do worse things than sleeping with Brand, like telling her to sleep with Adnan Ghalib.
On Tuesday, August 25, the full version of a promotional video for 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, came out. Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Leighton Meester, Cobra Starship, Ne-Yo, and Russell Brand appear in the clip singing some versions of “Tonight” from famous Broadway play “West Side Story”.
The 2009 VMAs will air live from
Radio City Music Hall in
New York City Sept. 13 (9PM EST) on MTV.
