Russell Brand reveals he stole Larry King`s wife`s knickers at dinner party

The former tearaway comedian also quashed rumours of trouble in paradise with Katy Perry by stating he’s planning to spend time with his “missus” before embarking on his new film.

Brand told Ryan Seacrest: “Larry King was naive enough to invite me into his home. There was a bizarre dinner party with me, Shaquille O'Neal, Seth MacFarlane, Tyra Banks, Quincy Jones and Conan O'Brien... it was mental, it didn’t seem normal.

“People were asking questions like: ‘Do you love your mum?’

He continued: “It was mad and seemed like the world had gone wrong.

“So I thought the only way to ground myself and make sense of this situation would be to sneak away, go upstairs, steal his wife’s underwear and conceal it about my person… then later on in the conversation when Larry King says: ‘Russell what keeps you up at night?’ I'd say ‘these!' and hold up his wife’s panties.”

Russell added: “I can see why Larry King’s retiring, he has a wonderful wife.”
