Russell Brand’s latest video raises more questions than it answers – the only 6 reactions you need to read

Oonagh Keating. Updated July 3rd, 2019

Comedian, author and semi-professional eccentric, Russell Brand is a bit of a Marmite character – we wouldn’t be surprised to find him in our cupboard, but we definitely didn’t ask for him to be there. He’s not afraid to speak his mind, and he’s remarkably candid about his life, his feelings and his thoughts – maybe a little too candid.

In the latest of his many videos, he explains his take on spirituality and what it means for the wider community, pretty much boiling it down to “Be kind”, with which we can’t disagree.

We have some questions, though:

Is he dressed as Jesus?

Why is he holding a Twitter theology meeting?

How does he get that fullness to his beard – is it natural or is there a product that fluffs it out like that?

Anyway, the good people of Twitter had some comments …not all of them kind.

Finally, his message seemed oddly familiar to someone called @thewub.
