She’ll be at West Ham/Everton on Sunday, get it moving…

Being a game sort of girl, big-chested faux-lesbian Katy Perry rocked up to last night’s MTV Europe Video Awards in this claret and blue ensemble, after a dare from her Hammers supporting boyfriend Russell Brand:

Wow. Now MY GIRLFRIEND has worn a West Ham basque while hosting the EMA’s. What a day! I might revive Gandhi and ask if he wants to be mates.

Yes I will be taking her to a game – West Ham Vs Everton. And, before it begins, no I won’t be taking her up the Arsenal. x

Hopefully this will give the West Ham board a bit of inspiration for their next replica shirt advertising campaign, after this summer’s nightmare-inducing Ray Winstone effort.

Celebrity Hammers fan perplexes Americans with football ritual

After calling George Bush a “retarded cowboy” and sharing some choice words about the Jonas Brothers’ lifestyle choices at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards, Russell Brand was asked back to present the 2009 show. Thanks to the antics of detestable rapper Kanye West, the former Guardian football columnist went relatively unnoticed at this year’s show, but footage of the West Ham fan promoting it has been brought to The Spoiler’s attention.

In an interview with Jimmy Fallon (a popular yet unfunny comedian and talk show host with an irritating habit of laughing during his own jokes), the conversation turns towards West Ham, and Brand happily belts out chants commonly heard at the The Boleyn Ground, to the utter bemusement of the American audience.

Check out part two of the interview, which contains the raucous chants, after the jump…

Rugged Welsh centre-half clearly intent on meeting Katy Perry

New Aston Villa centre half James Collins is clearly missing his old buddies down the East End. Aston Villa fans may not be too chuffed to hear he was intent on spending the day before the club’s huge match with Manchester City, desperately trying to grab a night out with Russell Brand however.

Oasis star and rakish comedian hit the airwaves

Russell Brand made his triumphant return to radio in a one-off talkSPORT special with Noel Gallagher last night. Highlights included a Daily Mail reader-angering phone call to Jonathan Ross, and a call to the White House in order to confirm Barack Obama’s support of West Ham.

The duo also spoke to Steve Lomas, who judged whether Brand’s club West Ham are bigger than Gallagher’s beloved Manchester City, as well as revealing something that John Moncur would have preferred to have been kept quiet.

Other highlights included Noel Gallagher analysing the lyrics of “Fog On The Tyne” and the Oasis guitarist’s anecdote about Wayne Rooney.

BBC exile still accepted by lovers of lentils, sandals and beards

In case you didn’t know, popular sex addict and keen West Ham supporter Russell brand likes to show his command of unnecessarily big words in a weekly Guardian sport column. According to our mole at Guardian HQ, he will be scribbling his thoughts in tomorrow’s edition of the paper - whether he talks about his conquests or poorly-thought out gag that was blown hideously out of proportion remains to be seen.

(An unfortunate victim of the whole ManuelGate scandal is Brand’s Radio 2 co-host Matt Morgan: he was away on holiday when the incident occurred, and returned to find his stable source of income no longer existed.)
