Russell Brand is worried that he may have upset George Bush after author David Icke ranted about the president on his show.
Icke called George Bush's father "a notorious paedophile" on Brand's Radio 2 programme, after claiming that he had researched the Bush family tree.
Brand described Icke's comments as "bonkers" and insisted they were "not the view of the BBC".
A show source told the Daily Star: "Russell was absolutely horrified when Icke came out with the stuff about Bush live on air.
"He said afterwards he had enough problems without making enemies of the most powerful family on the planet.
"Russell was really worried there would be a US backlash."
