Russell Brand Makes Fun Of The Jonas Brothers

For their no-sex-before-marriage vow...

Monday 08th Sep 2008

VMAs host Russell Brand was forced to backtrack after spending much of his presenting stint mocking the Jonas Brothers for being virgins.

The comedian poked fun at the teen trio for wearing purity rings that promote no-sex-before-marriage.

But he was forced to admit he'd overstepped the mark after producing a ring and claiming he’d stolen a Jonas Brothers’ virginity.

Fellow purity-ring devotee, Jordan Sparks, gave the comedian a dressing down for his comments, stating: "It's not bad to wear a promise ring because not everybody, guy or girl, wants to be a slut."

Minutes later the MTV host apologised, "I've gotta say sorry because I said those things about promise rings; that was bad of me. I didn't mean to take it lightly."

"I love Jonas Brothers, I think it's (purity) really good. I don't want to piss off teenage fans... Promise rings, I'm well up for it, well done everyone," he added.

But he couldn't resist a final gag, saying, "It's just, a bit of sex occasionally never hurt anybody."

The Jonas Brothers join a host of other stars in our VMAs Red Carpet Round-Up!

Poll  Do you think Jonas Brothers set a good example promoting chastity?

Yes - They are good to look up to

No - It's all fake

  • The Jonas Brothers ands Jornan Sparks are holier than thou and use religion to gain popularity and cash. Having a sex life - even as a teenager - does not make one a SLUT Ms. Sparks. I believe it is the endless hype and promotion that of personal beliefs that Mr. Brand was taking the piss out of. Shame on you but thanks for showing us your true twisted ideas about sex. Sad product of anti-sex religions are sad.
