Pranked!

Russell Brand has done it again and fooled us all. Last night his Canada show at Casino Rama had to be cancelled at the very last minute.

His twitter account seemed to be Brand saying that he was not able to enter the country for reasons unknown and if they didn't let him in soon he was going to be late.

Later on he seemed to confirm that he had indeed been refused entry to Canada posting this tweet: "Tonight's Casino Rama show postponed. I'm sorry. I can't enter Canada. We must abolish the borders between our nations and our minds."

This story was picked up swiftly by the media, given there was a history behind it to give the tale some credibilty (Brand had been deported from Japan in May this year for his previous drugs offences.) However, it later emerged that there had been no problems with the border agencies and there had, in fact, been a technically issue with his plane and he had never actually left the ground.

Always the joker Rus!
