Russell Brand was forced to knock back some pain killers on stage during a comedy show in Los Angeles after suffering from a crippling migraine attack.
The 'Get Him To The Greek' star, who signed divorce papers from Katy Perry last week, continued his set but shocked the audience when he revealed his illness - and it wasn't part of the show.
At the sold-out show at the ComedySportz Theatre in Hollywood, the 36-year-old reportedly told the audience: “I have a terrible pain. I need pain killers. Sorry about this. I feel nauseous now. I feel sick.”
On Thursday, during his 90 minute set, Russell said: “I’m worried this might be the early stages of a migraine. I get this light disruption thing” before taking medication from aides from the side of the stage."
He also added: “I think I’m such a professional showman this is beyond ridiculous stopping to take medication.”
No doubt Russell is feeling the stress from his split from Katy Perry, but she showed no signs of illness while performing at the Grammys last night.
