Russell Brand spoke with The Sun about kissing Pink and Katy Perry while filming ‘Get Him To The Greek’, the follow-up to ‘Forgetting Sarah Marshall’, where he reprises his role as frisky rocker Aldous Snow. “In the scenes with Pink and Katy Perry I had to do kissing. I got to snog them both in a day,” Brand told Gordon Smart. “Katy Perry is lovely. She is the kind of girl who would skip down stairs lightly. Pink is a lovely woman — a forceful, sexy woman. With both of them I didn’t act, the acting stopped.” Brand also filmed a scene with Christina Aguilera for the movie while on the Paramount set, where he hosted the MTV Video Music Awards. “Christina was amazing,” he said. “She is unbelievable — a perfect object. How could you ever talk to her about anything other than sex?” Read more.

‘Finding t.A.T.u.’ Behind Schedule, But That’s A Good Thing
Tatu’s official web site caught up with ‘Finding t.A.T.u.’ editor Richard Nord for a Q&A, asking the Oscar nominee if the film is on schedule.
“Last time I checked, we weren’t,” he admitted. “But, due to the ambitious nature of this film, that’s not a surprise. We have over 190 Scenes and we’ve been shooting all over Moscow. It’s hard to absorb all the bumps on the road, so we probably are a few days behind. But that in a way is a good thing. That means we are not rushing to a point where we compromise making a good film. Sometimes it takes more time to get things right. It takes a smart director and good producers to realize that. Therefore, it’s better to have a good film that comes in late than a mediocre film that was made on time.”
