The most eloquent filthy mouth to hit the comedy scene, revolutionary Russell Brand has slowly but surely charmed his way from London to Hollywood—his ruminative witticisms and attitudinal haircut leading the way. The "Russell Brand in New York City: Extended & Uncensored" DVD, hitting stores today is a great way to become conversant with the captivating comedian or makes a solid addition to any loyal fan's collection.
Between acting in films alongside Jason Segal and Adam Sandler and writing "My Booky Wook," an in-depth recount of the comedian's lothario ways and years spent consuming drugs, Brand managed to squeeze in a stand-up special for Comedy Central, which showcases his sheer insanity and inherent comedic talent.
The new DVD includes bonus material like his infamous monologue at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards, clips of the erotic funnyman conducting street interviews around NYC's Times Square and deleted scenes from the Comedy Central special. Check out the clip below for a peek at Russell explaining how he handles fame, or lack thereof, at times.
The DVD will be available for purchase from Comedy Central for $15, but we're also giving away one copy to a lucky CH reader. To enter simply Tweet @coolhunting with your favorite Russell Brand quote and we'll pick from entries received before 11:59 pm EST on 20 May 2009.

Created by comedians Julian Barratt and Noel Fielding from a series of radio and stage shows, the award-winning series is what would happen if Luis Buñuel chewed up the Kids in the...
New York designer Deger Cengiz's elegant standard chair features an extra pair of hinged legs that swing into place when the user tilts backward. While he's not the first to come up with the idea (see Homer Simpson's similar version in "The Wizard of Evergreen Terrace"), the finished chair bears the quality of timelessness rarely found in such gimmicky conceits. Apparently inspired by ill-tempered...
Over 15 years since debuting as MTV's first foray into sketch comedy, "The State: The Complete Series" is finally a reality.

by Doug Black and Josh Teixeira For those with a resolution to get laid more, let Tommy Guns handle the grooming. At first blush, the term "salon" might seem misleading. The recently-opened Lower East Side outpost of London-based Tommy Guns has the overall aesthetic of a classic shave-and-a-haircut barbershop. But behind the marble-and-nickel interior, vintage lighting and pitch-perfect wall hangings, is a full service hair...
Full-time writer, part-time maker of dioramas, New Yorker Sloane Crosley has released a collection of her witty essays entitled "I Was Told There'd Be Cake." Recounting tales of plastic pony collections, wanting to raise her unborn kids in Belgium and locking herself out of her apartment twice in one day, Crosley's stories will make you think of Larry David if he was a cute...
