Kind of sad, but also what did you expect, he's gonna listen to 2 minutes of some random fan's material? I think he actually diffused the situation pretty well by making a joke and also telling you something encouraging, that's more than I would expect.

Thanks for summarizing so I didn't have to listen to her story
You told that story quite well! I met Julian Lennon. He was lovely. I talked to Harry Nilsson on the phone. He too, was lovely. I just got lucky.
I mean... That's exactly how I would have expected him to be lol
You should change the name of this channel to “Central Stand-up”
Yeah I'm with Russel on this one

2 minutes!? If you asked to tell him one joke he'd probably of let you... If you asked to kiss him he'd probably do that too.
still worth it!
She is sooo beautiful..
Girl, he's not the only fish in the sea.
The truth is so much less glamourous than the myths.
I mean, he’s with a bunch of people and you asked to do a 2 minute bit right there. I don’t think he had an irrational reaction
Russel is like a character from a South Park episode that came to life... lol
She's cute. I love her. Watching from London.
"Lmao" ty I'm high AAff. It was funny. Maybe not as funny when I'm sober but whatever.

To be fair, Jenny is funnier that he has EVER been. I think she had the last laugh 😂
Is anyone that surprised? I was actually anticipating it being worse.
But what did she expect? I’m glad she got closure, but she sounds like she’s got some issues if that’s going to bother her to the point she needs closer 10 yrs later. He was being truthful. And she can’t expect him to wait for 2 min while she does a bit for him. That’s kinda odd no? Not the right time or place. She need to take some of the ownership on that esp after 10 yrs. That said, he could have still been truthful and handled it with kindness.

He doesn't owe her anything, especially his kindness. Celebs don't owe anybody anything except a performance fans paid for. That's it. The buck stops there.

She has some entitlement issues for sure “listen to my 2 minute bit now!•
Hold up hold up!! Why bash on Russel ?? Telling jokes should be an experience not something to be forced to watch and listen . And he also gave really good advice about being truthful pretty much saying be yourself and stop asking for approval.
Jenny!!
If the 2 minutes you wanted to show him were anything like this vid, Russell made the right call
Seems like a sweet girl.
I wish I had this much false confidence

I mean, she did want to meet Russel Brand and she did get a 100% Russel Brand experience (100% aholish)... don't know what she's so dissapointed of. Should have gone to meet prince Harry I guess...
Dam, so much criticism... Just laugh and enjoy.

Look kiddo, you'll never have anything with an attitude like that. She's beautiful and unique in her own way. Btw it's not all about appearance but the inner part of one's self. You won't achieve much by downing people because they don't meet your standards...
You are hilarious and I'd rather see you stand up than him now, although he is my baby Daddy 🤣🤣🤣🤣 great job girl ✌️
Honestly any girl who gives me that offer is gonna get it so quick lol

@Willie Trombone I sure do. Did I tell you about the time I was invited to Dave Chapelle's party and there were naked people doing gross stuff?
Or, don't have heroes.
I’m baffled by the comments that say her Russell accent was “spot on”. She literally just did a generic British accent that wasn’t close to Russell
Life tip: stop worshiping people as heroes. Only THOR, god of thunder is a true hero! (and some of his pals ofcourse)

How unfortunate that her debut on this excellent platform for up and coming comedians was this awkward, unentertaining story about her bothering Russell Brand. A 2-minute clip of her best standup would have been so much stronger for her. This is just kinda sad

Michael McCarthy Yeah, I cant really disagree with you there, it probably wasn’t the most impressive or amusing anecdote. Not that I’m saying she was trying to impress us all with it. I guess personally speaking I think a lot of us might agree we just would’ve went with a different story altogether. But y’know, to each his own I guess. Also, what’s that thing they always say about never meeting your heroes, right?

Jenny you sound Australian with yr english accent. When you coming back?
Her outfit reminds me of fred flinstones dress.

Hahaaaa!
I would put it in J's B.
The music and takes dont flow with the jokes, she deserves better.
i wonder what if you had asked to kiss him
:)!!

if it was at least 2008- 2009 he hadn't made a complete ass out of himself yet.
I hate the editing.
Russ always seemed like that kind of douchebag. Not surprised by this story. I wonder if anyone has ever "met their hero" and had it actually be a good story and that celeb didn't turn out to be a disgusting human being inside. I don't think both have happened in one documented occasion

He didn’t even do anything awful In her story. She just seems entitled
Every woman's been disappointed by nighttime encounters with Russell Brand.
this is just sad
It sounds more like you just aren’t that good. He reacted in the most reasonable way. You were intrusive
Not funny
I think he really missed out on an amazing woman that would have taken him on a ride like no other.
Russel Brand is in general a disapointment. 🤣

Is that you, Katy Perry?
Why idolise a terrible personality like Brand?
He's no prize, but do you think he enjoyed meeting you? What did you present to him? Just listening to your story, you presented a begging, hero-worshiper who wanted to take and not give. What would be the benefit in that for him? Next time, have something to give him (and I don't mean your butt), so he could become bigger off of you, instead of your becoming bigger off of him. If it really bothered you, why don't you make it your mission to help up-and-coming comedians, like you wanted him to help you?
He’s your hero??!! Like seriously!!?? PS. You are wayy better than him in everything!! Including comedy and delivery!! Please stop even thinking about him and just start becoming somebody else’s hero and let them know its not always a disaster to meet your idols!! If it is... then they are not “Heros”!! Clearly !!

SamaB he’s a lot of people’s hero. He’s always been a master standup and his slow transformation to self help material has really made him unique. This lady isn’t 5 percent as good as him in both delivery and content.
She certainly thinks highly of herself it seems…
This woman seems a bit entitled and whiney. Just a terrible decision to give this loon a platform. Comedy central is doing it wrong lately trying to tick diversity boxes over funny boxes.
So are we suppose to sympathize the fact that she didnt get to be some subpar comedian's groupie 12 years ago?
I think “Kooky sexual fat chick” is my least favorite genre of stand-up comedy.
