Flamboyant British comedian-turned-actor Russell Brand will once again be hosting the MTV awards it has emerged. Brand is best known in the UK as the uniquely candid comic presenter of such hit programmes as “Big Brother’s Big Mouth” and “Ponderland”, but will be best known to our American cousins as outrageous rock star Aldous Snow in last year’s “Forgetting Sarah Marshall”.

The awards – which take place on September 13th – will be Brand’s second stint as the show’s presenter, as MTV saw ratings for the show reportedly increase 20% during Brand’s 2008 term in the role.

On Tuesday in a statement, the sometimes controversial comedian promised a clean show for this years awards:

“This year will be a controversy-free festival of love and discreet orgasms”

Now you know why he’s Britain’s best export!
