Brand to Host MTV Movie Awards

BRAND NAME: Russell Brand will host the upcoming MTV Movie Awards, which will be broadcast live June 3 from the Gibson Amphitheatre in L.A. This will be the first time Brand hosts the music channel’s movie awards, but he’s had two memorable stints as MC of the network’s Video Music Awards, first in 2008, when he memorably insulted George W. Bush and the Jonas Brothers and 2009, where he met his now ex-wife Katy Perry. "MTV Movie Awards incorporates two of my favorite things. Movies and awards. If somehow group sex could be involved it would be the greatest night of my life," said Russell Brand of his hosting gig. Brand stars in this summer’s film Rock of Ages with Tom Cruise. Emma Stone, Andrew Garfield, Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron and Mark Wahlberg are among the stars already announced to appear. Embedded below are some of his greatest MTV moments. (5/10p)
