Brand Blasted for Cherry Pickin'

The Jonas Brothers all wear purity rings -- but VMA host Russell Brand got in some serious hot water with his extremely impure jokes about the Disney virgins.
Russell Brand: Click to watch
Humorless "Idol" champ Jordin Sparks ('memba her!?) defended the boys after Brand bragged he'd bag 'em all by the end of the night. Hope he stayed away from Nick -- that kid's only 15!

91.
Shame on MTV! Shame on Russell Brand! Never heard of him before and never want to again.

Jordin? She needed a sense of humor? Come on TMZ, that's Bull! There was NOTHING funny about the demeaning things he said about some fine young men and their values. He didn't make ONE offhanded joke either that we could all pretend to ignore: He pushed and pushed and got disgusting and crude when it is clear he has no values, and is lashing out at those gorgeous talented sweet brothers--because he is such a total ugly sleazy slutty mess.

Jordin is fabulous and so are the Jonas Brothers. I lvoe their music. I lover their values. And I'm ashamed of MTV. I have a teen and I'd initially I prefered she didn't have to witness some weirdo belittling a very wonderful value to have for oneself as a yound person: chastity. I only hope she and all the other teens come away recognizing that Joe, Kevin, Nick, Jordin, Miley are THE BEST role models, and in seeing Russell Brand can identify THE WORST ones.

After last night, Russell brand smells like a toad, while the Jonas Brothers smell like a breath of fresh air.

92. It's supposed to be rock and roll for crying out loud!

Whatever happened to rock n' roll? The days of backstage tales with the Stones and Led Zepplin, the groupies, sex, and drugs - rock queens like Joan Jett and Tina Turner...

Now we are left with Jonas Brothers and Jordin Sparks...

Why not just call MTV the Nickelodeon Awards - or hell, even Romper Room.

94. last night watching the VMA's was almost a upsetting act. The man hoasting it was a disugting pig, and to further that comment, he was not even closly funny. I feel asleep watching it. The Jordan Sparks comment was rude, and so was Russle's.

even tho i hate the Jonas Brothers, that was still not a funny subeject and should not have been brought up on national television. Nice try Russel

95. Americans are so freacking sensitive. He was just stating what the world thinks of you. Everyone is realizing how dumb Americans are by wanting to elect another Republican president.

#77 Don't tell me who I ought to be offended by. I know who I was offended by. Someone saying something close to her heart because some tasteless jackass is attacking promise rings and virgins who has been spouting vulgarity all night offends me much less than said slutty jackass.

98. Oh Wahhhhh. He picked on the virginal Jonas Brothers? You know what I think? It's about damn time someone called their bluff. Remember when Britney was a "virgin" too? Hahahaha. If these no-talent hollywood Disney kids want to take a stand, they need to realize that somebody may draw attention to it in a way they hadn't planned. F$#@ off Jonas Brothers. Russell Brand was refreshing. Bush is retarded, listen to him talk!

100. WHAT the hell was that on MTV last night? When did the VMAs turn into "My Sweet Sixteen"? Holy crap. I am a 30-year old man, and I remember when the VMAs were about Guns N Roses drunk and slurring their acceptance speech, or Arsenio Hall drunk and saying lewd comments, or rap stars threatening to kill each other, or Tommy Lee and Kid Rock fighting. The Jonas Brothers? What was Slash doing there, was he the chaperone? The Slash of the early 90s would have taken a freshly drained bottle of Jack Daniels and beat the Jonas Brothers and that Michael Jackson-imitation Chris Brown for dressing like tools.

The crowd at last night's award show looked like all of Hollywood's 40-something old execs decided to throw a group bar/bat mitzvah for their brats. The crowd was very lame, the performances were mediocre, the set sucked, the "artists" had to share equal time with losers like Paris, Lauren Conrad and that horrible host. We should revoke that loser's visa permanently. And what the hell was with the reality dance-off segment? That winning group, ManPurse or whatever, hopefully when to go celebrate by dancing in the streets and got hit by a bus.

This was the most pathetic awards show I have EVER seen... but it doesn't surprise me - I remember when MTV was about music and not about "reality" shows.

Did you hear that? That was the death knell for MTV. Just move it to the Disney network or Nickelodeon.

101. You foreigners standing up for Brand, you wouldn't be laughing and cheering either if some lame FOREIGN comedian started telling you what to do, calling your leader a retard, and spouting sexually derogatory remarks aimed at your own 15 to 18-year old celebs!!!!

That Brand guy was a boorish idiot who was NOT AT ALL FUNNY!

I applaud the Jonas Bros and Jordin!!!

103. What he said to the Jonas Brothers was completely unacceptable.I think this years VMAs was the worst just for the fact it was hosted by Russell Brand.I think that he is a dirty, disgusting, sex addict.I honestly feel sorry for the Jonas Brothers.
