Russell Brand on GOD

Russel Brand, famous only for his libertine excess, here waxes lyrical on the vacuous nature of celebrity, the hollowness of fame and the pursuit of God. In no uncertain terms he claims that everything his fame and celebrity brings him - sexual promiscuity, wealth, pleasure, media attention etc - are but mere shadows of the only thing that will ever truly satisfy him; God. He admits that he is, like so many people, simply running after shadows, obeying the endless yearnings of the human heart for significance and purpose. Brand admits that fame, the very thing many people aspire to as the ultimate prize, is nothing but dust and ashes. It is a fascinating interview.
