Russell Brand Describes Married Life With Katy Perry

According to Russell Brand, his new wife, Katy Perry, wears the pants in the marriage.

In his first interview since their October nuptials, the comic said on England's "Loose Women" show Thursday (November 11), according to Us Weekly, that being married to the superstar "Firework" singer is just like any other union and recalled a moment when Perry vetoed one of her hubby's sartorial choices.

"It's just a normal marriage," Brand insisted. "The other day, I put a shirt on, and she went ... 'You're wearing that shirt, are you?' I thought, 'That's actually happening?' That's a thing off a sitcom. That happened in my actual life. I wasn't allowed to wear it. If she says don't wear that shirt, I don't wear it."

Despite reports of a lavish ceremony set against the backdrop of a sprawling wildlife sanctuary in Northern India, Brand maintained that the couple kicked off their ordinary marriage with equally run-of-the-mill nuptials.

"It was just normal," Brand said. "Everyone gets all worked up about showbiz and celebrity."

Even though he shrugged off ideas that their pairing is different from any other couple, Brand still had plenty to gush about when it comes to his new bride.

"All of us, really, have a deep yearning within us for love," Brand said. "I think eventually you find a spiritual and emotional connection with someone, and I think it unifies with everyone. I think if you love one person, it makes you love everyone. That's how I feel. Katy gives me a lot to think about. I like it."

For her part, Perry has recently said she didn't mind all the hoopla and speculation over their wedding.

"I actually was too busy getting married [to notice]," Perry told on the 2010 MTV EMA red carpet. "I don't mind [that] my wedding has turned into kind of a myth. It's kind of cool. We kept it kind of private, so when we heard some of the things that were going around, we were like, 'Ah, that's hilarious.' "
