Its been a hot minute since I’ve featured one of my original loves Russell Brand. The British comedian was photographed departing from a yoga class in Los Angeles, California on March 24th.
If you read his shirt you will read ol’Russ is trying to make a pretty big statement. The bold print on his gray t-shirt says, “Legalize Gay, Repeal Proposition 8 Now,” showing his clear opposition of the controversial Proposition 8 which grants same sex couples the constitutional right to marry.
A new report has emerged from The Daily Mail claiming Brand and his fiance Katy Perry have split up. The report sources a friend of Brand’s claiming he is becoming tired of being tied down.
A source said: ‘Russell adores Katy, but he’s not sure he’s capable of being tied down.
‘Everyone who knows him isn’t really that surprised. He has a habit of declaring that a girl is “The One” during the first weeks of dating, but it’s just that it’s never been this high profile before.
‘It seems he’s finding this relationship overwhelming.’
Could Russell and Katy’s relationship be going from Hot to Cold?

I’m sorry, you really shouldn’t listen to me – I’m hardly straight myself!
Honestly, i think that the reason they split might end up being more to do with that shirt. RB is an intelligent guy, and he apparently supports the repeal of prop. 8, so why would he want to marry a woman who thought that Gaga’s Alejandro vid was using religious imagery to up the shock factor for ratings, and didn’t realize that the imagery was OBVIOUSLY intended to make a statement about the church and it’s links with the difficulties in legislature for gay rights. I’m not saying it’s a homophobia thing, i’m saying it’s an intelligence thing…if her mind instantly goes to a ratings stunt and rather than the imagery, then it’s clear what kind of person she is.
Also, just something to note, Prop. 8 does not “grant same sex couples the constitutional right to marry”, it “provides that ‘only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California.’” That’s why the campaign NOH8 is against Prop. 8. I’m sure that’s what you meant, but it doesn’t quite make that clear in the article.
