Russell Brand has revealed that he is doing "quite well" despite his recent divorce woes following his split from pop star Katy Perry.
Funnyman Russell is currently in Los Angeles promoting the new FX channel, Strangely Uplifting and whilst appearing at the TCA press tour Russell reassured fans he was fine in his usual elaborate and round-about way.
Speaking to reporters, he said: "I'm quite well, thank you. Are you asking because of recent events? Well I suppose what you're doing is you're making the mistake of seeing time as linear.
"The brilliant American author Kurt Vonnegut, he'll tell ya that if you imagine reality as experienced simultaneously, events become redundant."
The Forgetting Sarah Marshall actor filed for divorce in Los Angeles last month citing "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split.
When asked for further details of the breakdown of his relationship with Teenage Dream star Katy, Russell continued: "I don't want to further celebrate the overly elaborate, brittle plastic structures of nonsense that are constantly fired into our minds to distract us from what's really important.
"So if I'd done something actually newsworthy... then I'd cover it. But if it was just more lacquered nonsense, designed to distract us from truth, then I would wisely ignore it."
Ok then, he sounds as normal and as cheerful as ever....
