Russell promises to avenge Britney

London (ANI): English comedian Russell Brand has promised to avenge pop princess Britney Spears for calling him names by trying to pinch her at the MTV Video Music Awards. Brand had been called "Russell Brown" by Spears in a TV promo for the awards.

"I know at some point I will try to pinch her," the Sun quoted him as saying. The actor has also been practising some of his moves on American pop/R&B singer Christina Aguilera, and is planning to have a go at the pop trio The Jonas Brothers. "Those three lads with virginity rings if by the end of the evening I've not got them hanging around my neck I will consider my job not properly done," he added.
