Russell Brand has already slept with most of England and found a certain notoriety within the Bedhead Hall of Shame, so it makes sense that he’d attempt to break into the U.S. pool of potential bed partners. So far, he’s having no trouble attracting women in a quasi-intellectual sense. At the NYC launch of Brand’s memoir, My Booky Wook, the comedian/actor/Lothario was mobbed by several hundred female fans, who eagerly awaited their turn to contribute to the perfect storm of STDs:

Brand’s autobiography, My Booky Wook, an unflinching look at his sex, drugs and stand-up comic lifestyle, hit U.S. shelves yesterday.

And his publicity machine has clearly paid dividends, as hundred of fans swamped the bookstore to hear him read excerpts from the book.

He recently revealed the book will be turned into a film later this year.

Well, Russell should have a perfectly smashing time getting that film past the MPAA, no?
