When Mirren caught Brand touching her innerwear

LONDON - British comedian Russell Brand, who will tie the knot with Katy Perry this month, reveals that Dame Helen Mirren caught him touching her innerwear.

The Oscar-winning actress has recently filmed two movies - The Tempest and Arthur - with Russell.

“I did ‘The Tempest’ and that’s where I first met her. She couldn’t have been more charming, sexy, convivial and brilliant. She just put me at ease. I couldn’t have been more willing to have a particular oedipal bath with that woman, femalefirst.co.uk quoted him as saying.

“I was at a costume fitting for ‘Arthur’ and they had the bras hanging up that she’d be wearing and I thought, ‘I’m going to go and touch them’. So I did and she was there and she saw me doing it, she just let me get away with it. They’d not been on her yet, but they will be,” he said.

Russell started his career as a comedian and appeared in movies such as St Trinian’s, Forgetting Sarah Marshall and Get Him to the Greek.
