Russell Brand Back To Host MTV VMAs

russell-brand

He’s back! After controversially hosting the MTV Video Music Awards last year, Russell Brand is back to host the awards again on September 13th in New York City. Russell ruffled feathers at last year’s ceremony when he joked that the Jonas Brothers should take advantage of their celeb status to get lucky and poked fun at their purity rings.

“We are thrilled that despite numerous death threats from Jonas Brothers fans, Russell Brand has accepted our offer to put his life on the line and host the VMAs again this year,” MTV’s general manager, Stephen Friedman, said.

Taylor Swift will also appear on the live broadcast, performing a never-before heard version of her hit, “You Belong With Me.” [Source: Us Weekly; Photo: Getty Images]
