Russell Brand addresses ex-wife Katy Perry, Justin Trudeau's relationship: 'I don't like politicians'

Russell Brand has finally broken the silence on his ex-wife Katy Perry's new relationship with Justin Trudeau.

The 50-year-old actor appeared on The Megyn Kelly Show on Monday and joked, "I put up with a lot with that ex-wife of mine, but you took it too far, KP."

Russell further said that he doesn't like good-looking politicians.

"I specifically don't like what is typified by those good-looking politicians, [Barack] Obama, [Emmanuel] Macron, [Tony] Blair," he explained.

"They're sort of good-looking and they're charming. But you think, who do you work for really? Who's running this? Because it can't be you. And I don't like that sort of pose of compassion that's absolutely undergirded by selfishness, probably because I recognise it myself. I'm so selfish sometimes," continued the comedian.

The Arthur star then added that he had no issues with the Firework songstress' previous relationship with Orlando Bloom.

 "Orlando Bloom, I love that guy," he said.

Elsewhere in the interview, Russell also lauded Katy as a "beautiful person."

“She has an innocence, she’s a very beautiful person. She’s also incredibly driven and worked really, really hard," he said. “Here’s me taking total responsibility for all the mistakes I made in that marriage."

For those unversed, Russell and Katy called it quits in 2012 after 14 months of marriage.
