let's talk about one more thing before we break Russell Brand is an actor
comedian
who I am NOT a big fan okay I've never been a big fan of Russell Brand's
however he kick he got kicked out above the GQ awards for pointing out that Hugo
Boss
which was sponsoring these awards at one point made Nazi uniforms the clip is
hilarious take a look at this
grace the stage where boris yeltsin it just might like vector these have
chemical weapons
in Syria meaning that GQ
can now stand for genocide quips I mention that I need to make this mix
come in a bit like a sieve
any view there's no you'll be about history and fashion when I think you got
the last night the uniforms for the nazis
10 sees the deathless but you know they didn't
fantastic let's face it wildlife
killing people on the basis of their religion and sexuality
genocide for its okay nice okay this okay
it's already been sanctioned soco he defended what does that trains says he's
cool
like a nice fair enough by a mine on Irish
I think this is really great I i understand why they didn't like it at GQ
because you go boss is paying them big bucks to sponsor this thing
and I it'd there's no question that Hugo Boss executives are clearly furious
there's been a long effort
to just kinda not talk about the fact that this this is true hugo boss did
produce
Nazi uniforms Russell Brand brings it up he does it in a
funny and eloquent way I've never been a big fan Louis
but I like this this was this was a interesting move and I understand you
could say hold on a second
if he really has that much of a problem he shouldn't even be up on that stage
and I disagree he was asked to be up on the stage he was not told in advance not
to discuss that
he said it he probably won't be asked back he will be
he will suffer the repercussions of what he did but it was his choice and people
didn't like it
it's a risk anytime you invite anyone to do anything right
totally worth it L and I'm sure he feels the same way I
I love it when when comedians actors whoever is up there has to be a
because I own a stitch estate things like this because
it's true it happened and you know what it made people laugh
hugo boss was punished as a Nazi supporter after world war two
he died in nineteen forty 8 on that note we will pause briefly David Pakman dot
