Russell Brand in New York City: Extended & Uncensored by Karen Day

russ-dvd.jpg

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.

Tommy Guns Salon Giveaway
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.
