Russell Brand 'Im doing just fine'

Russell Brand is doing just fine.

While promoting his new FX showStrangely Uplifting, the British funnyman who recently filed for divorce from wife Katy Perry was asked how he’s coping following the breakdown of his marriage.

“Quite well, thank you. Are you asking because of recent events? You are making the mistake of seeing time as linear. The brilliant American author Kurt Vonnegut, he’ll tell you that if you imagine reality as experienced simultaneously, events become redundant,” he said.

Brand was then asked if the show will reflect what’s going on in his life.

“There will be inevitable biographical elements, because you can’t speak from anyone’s perspective but your own. Unless you bizarrely adapt some sort of avatar,” he said.

“It’s like I can’t speak from the perspective of Angelica Huston. People would think I lack the appropriate authority if I said, ‘Oh, I had a tumultuous relationship with Jack [Nicholson, Angelica's former beau] and my father [late director John Huston].’ I am not qualified.

“So there will inevitable be my experiences, I will speak from own my perspective. I live in this extraordinary country of yours. I’m not from here. It’s like the perspective of an alien trying to understand this peculiar time and this peculiar country. What I think, it’s a bit like Mork and Mindy.”
