Russell Brand Proud to Win ‘Shagger of the Year’ Gong Instead of Harry Styles

Russell Brand has joked that reclaiming his 'Shagger of the Year' award in the face of competition from Harry Styles is an "achievement".

The comic and media star has won The Sun's dubious award numerous times in the past before reclaiming his crown in 2012 following his split with global superstar Katy Perry.

Speaking on Alan Carr's Chatty Man, Brand admitted that winning the award last year was quite some feat due to competition from the likes of One Direction star Harry Styles.

He said: "I reclaimed my Shagger of the Year crown only last year. And when you think of all the new shaggers now like young Harry Styles and Doctor Who it is quite an achievement."

The funnyman added: "I have shagged them all out of the business. It is like a Muhammad Ali comeback. I have taken them all out."

Brand won the award in 2006, 2007 and 2008 before the gong was temporarily retired in his honor.

Listen/stream Russell Brand.
