Russell Brand 'to front US radio show'

Russell Brand is reportedly being lined up to host his own radio show in America.

Satellite broadcaster Sirius Radio is believed to be offering Brand a multi-million pound deal which could reunite the 'Get Him To The Greek' star with Jonathan Ross for the first time since the 'Manuelgate' scandal.

A source told The Sun: "Russell has been itching to get back on radio for a while now. He has been off doing other things but radio is the one thing that still really tickles him.

"He is desperate to do something with Jonathan Ross again. Jonathan will be free for more fun and games when his BBC contract ends next month.

"Russell's sidekick Matt Morgan is also keen to get writing and broadcasting again. The Sirius deal is in its infancy but Russell is well up for it. He has been given the hard sell about how they could make him the new Howard Stern."

Brand has allegedly been banned from appearing on the final edition of Friday Night with Jonathan Ross.
