Brand: "I can't do proper jobs"

Russell Brand has claimed that if he wasn't working on television he would never be able to hold down a proper job.

Talking about his occupation, the comedian said: "My job doesn't help anyone and is totally frivolous. But I can't do proper jobs.

"I've tried being a postman and a waiter but I'm worse at them than sexual restraint," he told The Sun

The former host of Big Brother's Big Mouth, who is currently filming a new St Trinian's movie, added that he could never appear on a reality TV show.

He commented: "I'd experience such giddy emotional highs and terrifying lows that the world would see I've got a mind like a rollercoaster driven by a serial killer."

His comments follow rumours earlier in the week that the star was being lined up for the next series of I'm a Celebrity...
