Russell Brand to star in The Simpsons

Comedian will get cartoon makeover

Russell Brand is engaged to Katy Perry

Russell Brand is to appear in The Simpsons.

The comedian - who will play himself in a forthcoming episode - found out on his birthday on 4 June. 

'It's true, I'm going to be in The Simpsons,' says Russell, 35.

'I was having an amazing birthday party and found out I was going into space. Then my agent says, "Oh, The Simpsons want you in an episode."

'Once you've gone yellow, you've made it.'

Russell already has some ideas for the storyline for his episode. 

'My ideal show would be where I have a cartoon relapse with Barney and Homer and get smashed out of my mind with them,' he tells The Sun.

Russell's new movie Get Him To The Greek is out now.
