2008 MTV VMAs Promo -- Morrissey

[WhiteMoon421]

I like how the word 'lachrymose' just glided by Pete.

[lilianini]

pete is so short <3

[Fatkidsaliva]

woah that's pete wentz? I thought it was the back of a asian kid's head o.O

[MckyMseNTarotCrds]

I've heard Brand talk about Morrissey a few times, so I know he's a huge fan. But that kind of annoys me, actually. Brand is the definition of a tool. He's everything Morrissey is not: an attention-whore, running around trying to get the whole world to think he's a madman. Ugh. Please, Brand...like a different band. The Smiths are for people w/ brains. Why not idolize Bono, okay?

[Surgiette666]

@MckyMseNTarotCrds I too get upset when people can see the value in things I can also see the value in? The idea that you think morrissey isn't starved for attention or that russel bransd isn't introspective kind of shows that you' aren't as good at reading people as you seem to think. Urgh...Please stranger, like a different band from me (even one that is a person and not a band???) because I'm a weird little baby who gets upset if someone likes the same thing as me.

[ForgottenSoul700]

Rusell is really tainting Morrissey's image and making him lame. Moz can never be a fan of Katy Perry.

[woobia]

@ForgottenSoul700 Katy Perry is tainting Russell's image. I know they're celebrities and we really don;t "know" them, but I can't for the life of me understand what he sees in her. I used to think he was just rapturous, and a genius of sorts. Now I'm confused.

[owenhunt]

@woobia She seems a smart enough girl aside from the music, which isn't an entire dissapointment in itself if you ask me. She's quite a few notches above Britney Spears and Gaga, when considering the catchy poppy riffs her songs take. Also, take into mind that the man may just be enthralled by his true love and saw the taking of it as more important than remaining an enigmatic figure in the public eye.

Forgive him?

[woobia]

@owenhunt No I really can't stand her. She's so hypocritical it's a joke.

From what I've seen of him, and what I've seen of her, I just cannot see how she could be his "true love".

I still think he is brilliant but this is a mystery.

[owenhunt]

@woobia I don't doubt your integrity on the matter, but how do you see her as hypocritical? I don't view enough media to know :)

[woobia]

@owenhunt She goes on about being a Christian and loving God, she has a tattoo that says "Jesus" on her wrist, she chastises Lady Gaga for using "blasphemy" in her video clips, and yet she walks around with her tits out ALL the time, her videos are very provocative and sexual, she sings about kissing girls to sell records. She's just not at all genuine.

[owenhunt]

@woobia Hmm... I thought she was a disavowed Christian, who with the support of her parents, remains a thiest in a similar sense to Russell. What blasphemy does she accuse Lady Gaga of, mind you?

[woobia]

@owenhunt No, I don't believe so. She does talk about God a lot. And I'm not sure Russell is necessarily a theist. He's "spiritual".

Well in Lady Gaga's clip for Alejandro, she is dressed as a nun at one stage, and puts rosary beads in her mouth at another. (The video directer claims that this wasn't supposed to be anything negative, however.)

[owenhunt]

@woobia Well thanks for your seeming erudition of pop-culture right there. I am quite sure Russell is a thiest btw, as a belief in divinity subjects him to few other concepts of choice. That is to say, he's never suggested a belief in a Pantheon of Gods. ;p

[woobia]

@owenhunt Oh okay, lol. I thought theism meant believing in one deity, and I wasn't sure that he actually did.

[owenhunt]

@woobia No it truly does mean that. My point is that he often argues for a God, whether in radio or in passing moments on talk-shows, yet never espouses suspicion of a league of them.

[woobia]

@owenhunt Oh I see. Well I have a whole lot more respect for his form of theism than Katy Perry's, that's for sure.

[DontShakeItUp]

@woobia Yeah, it's because Jesus is too forgiving. 

[YouveStolenMyEyes]

russell and morrissey are my very favourite people

[cath5100]

who the heck is Pete Wentz?

[TheSDolL]

I Luuv Petey!!

[blacktheory]

lool i actually thought pete wentz was sitting down when russel was talking to him. he was standing up right??

[Abumafo0]

It is quite painful to see some one like Russell brand who is so eloquent, speaking to a borderline retard like pete wentz.

Morrissey is god!!

[DebicKris]

Russell is a legend) love u)

From Moscow)

[Tullz90]

wentz is such a twat, just trying to suck up to russell.

[indianna22]

What does 'Mourdling' mean?

[TheLeisurePirate]

@indianna22 He says maudlin. It means very emotional/sentimental :)

[TheLeisurePirate]

@indianna22 I had to google that as well by the way. Being a Morrissey/Russell Brand fan has done wonders for my English vocabulary :)

[kaguth]

I agree though, we need a book of Morrissey's collected faxes!

[hooligun240]

pete is a crashing bore

[lorigore1]

pete wentz should really just die already...

[kyleleonard]

I really doubt Morrissey emails, he's already admitted (the Importance of being Morrissey) that he doesn't even own a phone.

[whump123]

Watch the BBC Culture Show interview then.

[kyleleonard]

@whump123 - Watch the importance of being Morrissey, then ;)

[whump123]

Already have. Times change.

[kyleleonard]

@whump123 - Pete Wentz fanboy.

[whump123]

Haha you really don't know anything about me. There are few that I hate more than Pete Wentz.

[Hemizzle]

@kyleleonard he does email.

[69crafty]

get onto the size of Pete Wentz hahaha he`s like 5ft!!!

[GDFullOn]

LOL...@ Pete trying to brag about getting an email off Morrissey.

Little does he know that Russell has had a hug off Morrissey...has had long running email correspondence...has been out for a meal and drinks with Morrissey...has had Morrissey on his TV and multiple times on his radio show...and Morrissey has been to Russell's gigs multiple times.

Russell must be thinking..."you ponce...you know nothing of Morrissey! Only tosh that is rumor...I KNOW MORRISSEY THE PERSON"

[Thisisarace]

Its like two geeks or school boys talking to each other...they just cannot stop especially pete...LOL love them just find it hilarious

[ashworth19matt]

It's not like you fuckers to base things on fact anyway!haha! Just blind idiocy! Even though you don't like him you still youtubed him mate! He's taken the English speaking world by storm, most googled thing in the world at one point.

[delongebarker]

he does know,

morrissey use to go on his radio show loads and there actually quite close friends.

get your facts right you american dick .

[valcan99]

related videos are hard to find

[DeathByFeathers]

but you surely spent more than two seconds of your life typing out that defensive message?

[khasperg]

It took exactly two seconds.

[DeathByFeathers]

and checking your email, clicking on the link, finding my post, and typing out *another* message was included in this two seconds. after waiting for nearly a month for a reply?

[VeggieChild69]

pete wentz looks like a midget next to Brand... lol

[Fonzi79]

My bad I'm American and I'm not up on the English music artist!

[Fonzi79]

who is this Morrissey guy there referring too?

[krsnamayi]

The singer of the great Brit 80's alternative band The Smiths. "How soon is now?" was the title of a song off their 1885 album "Meat is Murder". Google it dude.

[krsnamayi]

sorry 1985 album.....

[heartdownxo]

you are joking right?

[OldSchoolManc]

dont even fucking joke about that u nugget

[crzyemobtch]

Pete Wentz just seems like such an attention whore....to me of course.

[ashbyave]

Did Mtv just try to combine Pete Wentz with Morrissey, Wow. Has Mtv even had Morrissey on there within the last decade? I need Mtv europe I guess.

[alysssamichellle]

hahahaha i thought pete wentz was an asian guy at first

[CourtyardPigeon]

So, Morrisey faxes over cliches and it's brilliant?

[simonpenum]

haha

[Mooktopia]

i doubt morrissey ever faxed wentz anything....unless he was being ironic and that mong wentz didn't understand.

[XxShelbyFTWxX]

Oh God... Peter's so short! xD

[madmattproductions]

rofl look how much taller russ is than that little twat

[mozalicious]

wentz is a douche. wentz outta here!

[Mooktopia]

holy fuck i despise pete wentz...what a mainstream moron

[Malocosa]

Pete Wentz appeal to women is truly a travesty

[hirujorincon]

neither of these kidds should have thee riiight to talk of morrissey like they know him

morrissey is on a whole other level than these guys

FUCK FUCK FUCK fall out boy

and their safe pop bullshit ass music!!!!

[SluttyCarnival]

Russell Should've Clearly Bragged About How He's Met Morrissey.

[Chefsunnyg]

morrissey wooohooo

[iluvrussellandnoel]

I love how Russell has to sort of stand in a stradel to get eye level with Pete :)

RUSSELL BRAND IS AMAZING!

[KidBk313]

russell brand doesn't give a fuck about your publicist wentz

[luvmafwends]

Am i the only person watching this that actually loves fall out boy... They are my Favourite band and I love Pete, he is so short, funny and cute and i look up to him... STOP!! Making fun of him ... He is too sweet :)

[brokendoll13]

they're my favorite band too :)

[weedydeedee]

yo,iwishhe'dhitdatan wid me and id show im a gud time.peace

[rickyb1967]

Pete Wentz needs to go pick up his lollypop and get back to helping Dorothy and Toto get back to Kansas

[skwert15]

that fag shouldnt even be allowed to tlk about MOZ

[platinumorbit]

Russell looks so disinterested in everything coming out of Pete's mouth haha Like he has to concentrate really hard on looking like he cares in the slightest

[CaitrosebudMusic]

haha so true.

[Ulmeyda08]

I hope pete wentz dies painfully.

[ModernNovember95]

Ulmeyda08 why do u want pete to die???

he was just admiring guy

[Ulmeyda08]

Because he is a sellout, and a terrible musician that shoudn't even be aloud to speak about morrissey.

[ninmat]

and what do you think one should accomplish in order to deserve to speak about Morrissey?

[Ulmeyda08]

Not be Pete wentz.

[Chefsunnyg]

killer7

[Ulmeyda08]

Andrei Ulmyeda!

[Chefsunnyg]

tehehe.. hell yea!

[Jackerzz2]

I agree with Ulmeyda08 pevez whatever is so shit. He doesnt deserve to get an email from Morrissey (If he did at all).

And i dont believe the "How soon is now" fax story, it just doesnt strike me as something morrissey would do.

[nicknasty14]

These 2 are a couple of loser douchbags who have no business even talking about such a genius as Morrissey. Fall out boy, are you fuckin kidding me? They have gotta be one of the worst bands around. WTF happened to real music instead you get MTV fraud so called bands like this. Should be ashamed of themselves, no talent ugly fucks!

[sushikitty71]

agreed.

[pizablo187]

I second the notion

[extenglishdos]

Two of my favourite men.

People need to stop hating Pete. Haha. He's amazing.

And Russell Brand is perfection.

[LoverANDfighter84]

who the fuck is pete went

russell brand ponce or genius??

[BuildingACupcake]

he is the bassist in Fall Out Boy :]

Both men are sexy ;)

xx

[policestory]

pete wentz is a douchebag.

[poomiester666]

agreed

[PanicFOBMyChemluver]

I love Fall Out Boy so I love Pete Wentz cos hes IN Fall Out Boy. And I love Russell Brand cos hes just really funny.2 of my favourite people in the world I'm so happy.

[YouJustWantToLickMe]

AGREED!

[THUGLIFEKRISIS]

i thought it was too far out for morrissey to get involved with mtv awards.  i just watched 2 squares i'll forget once i'm done writing this. fuck.

[rainfallshard]

You can't really blame Pete Wentz for being in a shit band, hes probably trying his hardest, he seems to have decent tastes and be fairly articulate.

[knivesy]

who the hell is the guy in the red? He's hideous-looking and DEFI-FUCKING-NITELY needs to wash his hair.

[fayebeth]

pete wentz from fall out boy. look it up. maybe you'll learn some manners.

[buffycharmedangel102]

nice "part" in your hair Pete lol.

[ModernNovember95]

what do u mean by nice "part"???

[buffycharmedangel102]

I mean, nice "part" in the back of his hair, like the come over, and the come back that left a big crack in his hair.. that part lol

[ModernNovember95]

oh lol I see it haha comb over

[yumpyyumyum]

omg my two fav people in the world!!

[tk2500]

pete wentz Sucks!!! Dork and not in a cool way!Pozer!!

[Genkimark]

Russell Brand looks like he was just electrocuted...

[pretendwedontexist]

He always looks like that : /

[rossandrewmckelvie]

if they hate let them hate

aw bless them, people having to post comments. im sure they all know morrissey and who he hates.

[alfrenium]

WHO THE FUCK ARE THESE TWO WANKERS

[mikeyb79]

who the fuck are you alfrenium??? You ever hosted the VMA's???

[alfrenium]

no i haven't i just don't know who these wankers are

[davedoug]

morrissey cant stand you or your music petey boy.

brand knows it too.

[maxcrowe]

why were those two just talking

[SubmarinerAndroid]

I hate it when douchbags say they like Morrissey.

Pete Wentz seems like exactly the sort of plastic, safe pop star Morrissey would hate. He should have sent him a turd in the mail, not a letter.

[cpkelley]

I couldn't have said it better myself.  Thank you!

[catattycatcat]

Russell Brand and Morrissey are actually quite good friends now...

But if you were just referring to the other guy, many apologies.

[GrlLeastLikelyTo]

Good God! I couldn't agree more.

Pete Wentz is #2 on my list of 'People I Want To Smack In The Face With A Shoe'.

[1anthony1]

people like you shit me to tears, thinking morrissey is only allowed to be liked by a specific group, morrissey would probably spit on you

[SuperHardcoreFox1]

@SubmarinerAndroid LMFAO at turd in the mail...fukin hillarious!

[bananaxforxlife]

pete wentz is soo short.

[glamourgirl2008]

Yeh Russells about 6ft2 so pete looks real short in this vid!! Absolute LOVE Russell =)

[cappstreet89]

a book on Morrissey faxes? genius.

[XxGaarasGirlxX]

I used to love Pete Wentz!! But now...meh

I realized he hogs ALOT of the screen time in FOB's music videos! He's basically a poser!

YEY RUSSELL!!!!! XD

Luv that guy! Lawl =]

[rotheho]

Pete Wentz is a cunt.

[twoparties]

why was pete wentz kneeling down?

i love how russell tries to lower himself down, apparently just to be able to hear him.

[kimmimoreno]

WOW pete is really short in this!

but he still is hot

[Ihmepupu]

I can just imagine Russell Brand thinking "who the hell is this guy and why the hell has he had a chance to exchange e-mails with Morrissey"

[pinkranger2006]

Ha, yeah, Morrissey is WAY out of his league.

[xx5emogirl5xx]

OMG PETE WENTZZ!!!

[Hemizzle]

These two.. together. how fucking wierd!! they are my two fav celebs!!!! so different.. i never thought they are the same age so probably like the same stuff ahahhahahaha!

[beval7591]

it was only this morning as i took my, daily stroll along the pebbles, that i noticed a periwinkle, mounting a mussell, well i know one feels amorous first thing in the morning, but surely not, a bridge too far me thinks.

[Kagemusha22]

From the angle that the camera is placed it could be anyone, from Gok Wan to a random 15-year-old boy, bigging up Morrissey with Russell.

[davidtuck]

Who the hell is Pete Wentz ?? Is he like the bass player in Weezer or something ?

[simplelife88393]

He's from Panic at the fall out brothers or one of those 'bands'

[alfrenium]

i think he's from 30 seconds to panic at my chemical fallout brothers

[kinney1990]

he wishes he was in weezer he's the bassist from fall out boy

[humptyodumptyo]

He's the bass player from fall out boy... and Mr. Ashley Simpson XD

[Bespoke2]

I can't believe how small Pete Wentz is next to Russell!!!

[drd377]

was this really supposed to be a promo for mtv? he says "fuckin" in it.

[lomographic]

HAHAHAHAHAH. yes.

[CaeLeopard]

I would buy a book of Morrissey faxes. I really would. Damn, that's a brilliant idea!

[Studio103]

I dont´think Morrissey ever did that!

they wish!

[yamanbaia]

I refuse to believe that Morrissey knows who Pete Wentz is.

[AbominableHoman]

"Oh hey, look at how fake this shit really is" I absolutely loathe fall out boy, but how can I call the guy a faggot when he's way more loaded than I am, and has banged twice the chicks.

[yamanbaia]

LOL, saddest message on youtube

[awilsonator]

my little sister's goose died of old age... on Canada day.

[hannahgood]

HAHAHAH "A book of Morrissey faxes". I would buy it.

[Cheeserock123]

=O

Wow.

[xilovegerardx]

they're standing up??

[Hemizzle]

Im soooo happy theres a video of these two together, im a HUGEEEEEE fan of both of them. they are basically the same age aswell and sooo different but sooo the same! :D

[Helltosell]

Russell Brand and Pete Wentz. When fandoms collide.

[cherellp]

i love how russell has to practically do the splits to be the same height as pete lol

Love them both =D

[stopstealinghobo62]

[OooSpangly]
