Russell Brand kicked out of GQ Awards for Nazi jibes towards Hugo Boss

Comedian Russell Brand was reportedly kicked out of an exclusive awards ceremony after making Nazi jibes about the sponsor.
The 38-year old 'Arthur' actor, who could not resist ripping into GQ Men Of The Year awards backers Hugo Boss for kitting out the Nazis, placed a finger under his nose, in a Basil Fawlty-style impersonation of Adolf Hitler, and started goose-stepping, the Mirror reported.
Brand claimed that if anyone knew about history and fashion, they would know that it was Hugo Boss who made uniforms for the Nazis, which he called "f**** amazing"
The event, which was sponsored by fashion firm Hugo Boss for 250,000 pounds, descended into a slanging match as winners hurled insults at each other.
