Frank Skinner: I’ve left my groupies to Russell Brand

Comedian says he’s too old to hook up with fans

Frank Skinner is not as wild as he used to be

Frank Skinner says his days of bedding groupies after his shows are over.

The comedian says he's passing the mantle over to 33-year-old lothario Russell Brand.

‘I turn them away now I’m over 50,' he says. 'I’ve left them all in my comedy will to Russell Brand.

‘The groupies I’ve experienced in the past all seem nice. I’ve never had a kiss-and-tell from a groupie, only from my ex-wife – what does that tell you?’

Frank, 51, admits he doesn't get as  many offers now he's older.
 
‘I’ve had the odd stalker but they seem to have disappeared,’ he tells Metro.

‘I got a belated birthday card from a stalker. That’s really the end, isn’t it? When your stalker forgets your birthday!’
