PLAYBOY: You once stuck a Barbie up your ass during a show in London, claiming it was a protest against consumerism. Is it possible thereยs a less personally invasive and painful way to protest consumerism?
RUSSELL BRAND: If there is, I havenยt found it. [laughs] If I remember correctly, I chose the Barbie doll because it represents the oppression of women, the stereotype of femininity, the commercialization of sexuality, blah blah blah. But what I learned from the experience, at least in hindsight, is that if youยre going to make a satirical point involving putting things in your rectum, be selective. Donยt take requests from the audience. I ultimately went with a Barbie doll because of the shape. It goes in easier, if you know what I mean.
