• Fun Faith Fact!: Brand married Katy Perry in a traditional Hindu wedding ceremony

Actor and comedian Russell Brand isn’t the first person you would think of to be religious. He is known for his wild humor but he is also very spiritual. In fact, his ill-fated wedding with Katy Perry was a traditional Hindu ceremony in India. Brand invokes Hare Krishna as a daily part of his life, has a Hindu mentor, and attends temple sporadically. His spirituality was a large part of him overcoming his drug addiction. Photo courtesy of Chris Harvey.
