Russell Brand had hoped to join wife Katy Perry in Japan this weekend, but his hopes were dashed after the actor was denied entry into the country, reportedly due to his criminal record.
Perry was in town to perform a series of concerts in Nagoya, Tokyo, and Osaka, but hours after her arrival she tweeted to her more than 7 million followers, “So…my husband just got deported from Japan. I am so. sad. I brought him all this way to show him my favorite place #tokyodreamscrushed,” she wrote, adding later that he denied entry due to “priors from over 10 years ago.”
Brand took the event with a grain of salt, tweeting, “Planning escape from Japanese custody. It’s bloody hard to dig a tunnel with a chopstick.”








One country down, so many more to go.
Besides, the Japanese have suffered enouth this year.
how are they having concerts….oh the news….IT WAS SO BAD!
total bs…..hey we are in turmoil….lets take money from other countries and have concerts….the SHAME!
You do realize that Japan is a country and not the whole island was wiped out by a tsunami? Life goes on. Your comment is just silly.
I guess Japan isn’t impressed with Russell Brand…just like America.
A lot of musicians in Japan are still touring(Ayumi Hamasaki, Koda Kumi, etc). Some of their tour dates have been cancelled due to the damage in areas but they are still going. Sure they may have had to change some things but they are trying to give their fans joy and even raising money for the relief.
Russell is in for a BIG surprise when Katy comes back 40 feet tall and glowing
Japan rejects crap.
Right on, “LOL.”
The Chopstick joke denotes racism. Not only has that monkey as for always remained in want orf timing and good sense in “its” joke, it was not funny either.

What a racist buXX!
Kev, that’s the best comment ever.
or even, suffered ‘enough.’
With all of the crazy things that come out of Japan, you’d think they’d let crazy things in as well.
Lol sooo agree been there and crazy dosent even begin to describe it.
Good. Why should a celeb get special treatment if they have a record?
Your mother has a record of being a wh0re!
thats well out of order! idiot!
Gee, Sean Connery from Celebrity Jeopardy much?
LOL dee, I totally read that comment with Sean Connery’s voice in my head without even thinking about it, and before I read your comment. One of SNL’s best recurring sketches, that was!
Katy Perry has to drop that ugly horse’s ass husband of hers, Russell Brand. It is unfortunate that she is as attractive as she is misguided with her poor taste in men. She should be with someone around her age not a guy who obviously can’t handle women around his age.
Yeah, because you know who someone should be with better than they do.
He is actually a really nice guy. So much hating here. A person’s image is not always the person.
I think he’s really handsome with a very sick sense of humor..lol
Neither have talent… they’re perfect for each other.
There goes his chances at an aflac gig.

Who????
What the piece does not mention is what the priors are and whether they were committed in Japan or elsewhere. I’m assuming his high links of 10+ years ago were in Japan. As for Katy’s choice in men, it’s obvious she has had a positive affect on Russell. As “j” mentioned, Brand is really a nice guy. He was the spot-on choice for Arthur as it mirrored his own history and his being a good person deep down. He has admitted she was good for him. But even in his dragging and drinking days, he had admirable qualities. I think they’ll be just fine.
“he was the spot-on choice for Arthur” Please put the crack pipe down before posting.
Probably had a crack pipe in his pocket from 10 years ago
