over the years everyone has known Russel Brand to be provocative and funny. Well recently on a new talk show he has taken it to the new level. he has invited the westboro Baptist church to come in and interview. he starts off introducing the religion. He then asked a series of questions to see if certain people were going to hell or heaven including gandhi which the westboro Baptist church thought he was going to hell. Russel brand then makes real light of the situation making the audience laugh. through out the show he mocks both sides of the situations. lastly he brings in a few guests that are homosexual he then has the two group of people comfort each other. They seem as if the westboro Baptist church people are not being polite. He then suggest the two group of people to hug each other with the intent of it never happening. when asked to analyze this I came up with the fact of how he can take such two opposing sides together. The westboro babtist church came in wearing nothing but black. they were also standing firm with what they believed in. Through out the skit both party's remained unanimous to their own stereotypes as if it was expected of them. It is incredible that russel Brand could make light of this situation. The most important theory I saw was that he counter attacked the westboro Baptist church in his favor so he can jump start his career.
