He's on the One Show talking nineteen to the dozen about nothing in particular and looking like he needs a good wash.

What on earth do women like Katy Perry and Jemima Khan see in him? Just don't get the appeal AT ALL

He's an unfunny twat who isn't as clever as he thinks he is!

He's a dick but he has a gorgeous face underneath all the hair and grime!

He's clever and funny (assuming you like his humour) and there is a sparkle in his eye. I like his ability to shift from the inane to more serious in a second and his ability to see the bigger picture, from all angles is impressive. I don't find him attractive at all but can see the attraction, if that makes sense.

I think they might be emotionally damaged? He is a bit of an idiot imo. Oh and yes, he needs a good wash.
I imagine he could launch a relentless charm Hmm offensive until they forget how annoying he is?

He is nowhere near as clever or insightful as he thinks he is. And he dOes need a good wash, the mockney twat.

Is he not now a respectable partner to Kirsty Gallagher's dsis and a loving father to a two month old?

I always think if you spent any time in his company you'd come away feeling you need a good scrub with a wire brush and dettol

Armysal I totally agree with your choice of the word "odious". Describes him perfectly!

I think there are lot more odious men out there than Russell Brand, I think he has a certain something.

I'm with Ilostit. Although I'm going first.

Maybe it's an age thing because I probs lost it in the early 90s too Grin

He's physically repellent. Not to mention the behaviour (prank calls to Rape Crisis, forcing that wardrobe girl to strip, etc etc).

But then Charles Saatchi still manages to pull, doesn't he? I guess money has something to do with it.

He thinks he's an intellectual but if he got any further up his own ass he would never get out

He's not physically repellent in the way someone like Donald Trump is physically repellent, but he's got a very weasly face, stringy hair and doesn't appear to have changed his clothes or had a shower since about 2002.

He's repulsive.

I imagine he's pretty filty though. Which ain't a bad thing.

But no.

Grin at smile. I think he lost it in the 90's too so maybe we get his absurd dark sense of humour. Wink

I'd shag him, I bet he's as kinky as fuck.

He makes me clench my fists and my fanny. I hate him. Like, total, all out hatred. I find him unattractive to look at and his confidence, backed up by nothing (it would seem) makes him seem like an A level student waxing lyrical about the ways of the world. Proper mansplainer.

Ugh.

He did prank calls on a radio show I think with Chris Evans or something? He was possibly on drugs at the time.

I find his stringyness quite alluring. I probably would (but might have to stuff my socks in his gob first).

He's very attractive & charismatic - & rich & famous.
Probably why he's fighting women off.

Hm. YY about the humour Ilostit

I'm on the fence now. I hate Chris Evans and I hate prank phone calls.
