Russell Brand and Helen Mirren at The Tempest Premiere

Say Cheese. Ah. Russell Brand. Here he is acting a like a jerk at The Tempest premiere and, yet, we must admit the man makes us laugh. He's so deliciously idiotic and such a complete and utter prick that we find him hilarious (Forgetting Sarah Marshall is one of our fave films). Plus, it has to be an act, right? And, yet, we feel certain that hanging out with him for an afternoon (or a few days in Scotland) would make us want to jump off a cliff.

Part 3: Road to Scotland with Russell Brand and Katy Perry

Russell Brand may have recently attacked reporters at LAX, but to the left, we see Russell and his fiance Katy Perry at LAX in happier, less violent, times. And, since Russell and Katy are already at the airport, we've convinced them that a hop across the pond would be a guaranteed blast for all. Russell is crazy. Katy is fun. And so, where else should we go with these two
than Scotland, the land of lake monsters and moors?




1. Edinburgh. Our tour begins in Edinburgh. Russell and Katy, who are wearing matching kilts, meet us at our hotel, the Glasshouse. http://www.theetoncollection.com/content.aspx?pageID=450.
Edinburgh Castle
Edinburgh Castle.
 Russell explains that we won't need any transportation for getting around the Royal Mile in Edinburgh's Old Town. We start off at Edinburgh Castle, which served an important role in the Scottish War for Independence, which we mainly know about through Mel Gibson's portrayal of William Wallace (prior to Gibson's psychotic break, of course) in Braveheart.  Speaking of Mel, Russell Brand spots the William Wallace statue in front of the gatehouse and does his best  they-may-take-our-lives-but-they-can-never-take-our-freedom speech. We are pretty worried the vivacious Mr. Brand will offend the many Scots milling about the fortress (we've heard more than one conversation regarding Scottish independence during our stay in Edinburgh). As such, we decide to escort Russell out of the hallowed castle ASAP and move on to safer sites before he starts reenacting any further scenes from the film.
