Russell Brand Thrown Out of GQ Awards For “Pointing Out Hugo Boss Made Nazi Uniforms”

I couldn’t care less about Russell Brand or the GQ awards, but this news made me respect Brand more and respect GQ less. While performing on stage at the awards (sponsored by Hugo Boss) Brand said “If anyone knows a bit about history and fashion, you know it was Hugo Boss who made uniforms for the Nazis. But they looked fucking fantastic, let’s face it, while they were killing people on the basis of their religion and sexuality.” According to the Daily Mail, GQ editor Dylan Jones then had Brand booted from the event. Brand then took to twitter to say that Jones remarked “What you did was very offensive to Hugo Boss.” Brand’s reply was “What Hugo Boss did was very offensive to the Jews.” Also thanks to the Superficial for the news and for pointing out the Daily Mail’s apologist bullshit about the clothing brand; “my favorite part of this whole ordeal is when the Daily Mail attempts to point out that Hugo Boss wasn’t exactly an active Nazi, he just joined the party to make an insane profit from Herr Fuhrer’s practically innocent little Blitzkrieg and took advantage of the forced labor from occupied countries who then occasionally died from the work conditions.” Anyways, thanks  Hugo Boss and GQ for being such class acts…
