‘Katy Perry Must Have Been Drunk To Marry Russell Brand,’ Bites Donald Trump In Twitter Battle
Russell Brand and Katy Perry’s marriage may have ended two years ago now, but that hasn’t stopped Donald Trump from slinging some tweets about it in a Twitter war with Russell. Donald started the fight after seeing an appearance of Brand on Jimmy Fallon’s show, following it up a series of tweets directed toward Katy calling Russell all kinds of grandpa-y insults — among them “a dummy who is lost!”
I watched Russell Brand @rustyrockets on the @jimmyfallon show the other night—what the hell do people see in Russell—a major loser! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 16, 2014
.@katyperry I watched Russell Brand and I think his mind is fried – he looks really bad. Russell is a total joke, a dummy who is lost!

Donald’s insults again Russell escalated when he started specifically calling out Brand’s marriage with Katy. The pair divorced in 2012 after, according to Perry, Russell sent her a text message saying that he wanted to end the marriage. Katy told Billboard last year that she had even contemplated suicide following the end of the relationship.
.@katyperry Katy, what the hell were you thinking when you married loser Russell Brand. There is a guy who has got nothing going, a waste!

.@katyperry must have been drunk when she married Russell Brand @rustyrockets – but he did send me a really nice letter of apology!

Ignoring the bait for Perry drama, Russell retorted back with links to slamming hit-pieces written about Trump over the past few years. One, published by The Atlantic, claimed that Donald has a “reputation for being a deadbeat in many financial circles.” The other, published by Alternet, attacked the idea that Trump is a “self-made man”, arguing that Donald had only achieved his massive $2.7 billion net worth because of his rich father and and government assistance programs. Of course, being a comedian, Brand led with a joke to deflect the Katy criticism.
.@realDonaldTrump are you drunk when you write these tweets? Or does that foam you spray on your bald head make you high? — Russell Brand (@rustyrockets) October 16, 2014
.@realDonaldTrump I don’t think your daddy left you any witty ripostes, and everything you have you inherited. http://t.co/q5cJzu9OiW — Russell Brand (@rustyrockets) October 16, 2014
.@realDonaldTrump Also – http://t.co/Jq10umVKLF — Russell Brand (@rustyrockets) October 16, 2014
Katy Perry has yet to involved herself in the battle, but Donald Trump’s latest response is still fresh — we might see another string of attacks from Russell Brand yet.
