London, Nov 19 (ANI): English comedian Russell Brand has sparked outrage yet again by taking part in a seedy motel photo shoot with a sex doll, and by joking about groping the Queen.

Brand, 33, who is supposed to be keeping a low profile in the US, revealed his thoughts when he met Her Majesty.

"Grab her f*****g t*t," the Sun quoted him as saying.

After his admission, the actor then simulated a sex act on stage, joked about having seen Britney Spears' private parts, and boasted about bedding women.

At the end of his stand-up show at New York's Teatro Del Barrio, he told the audience to have an orgy, and invited women to contact him.

"Feel free to approach me for sex," he said.

Brand later flew to Los Angeles for the magazine shoot at the motel, which advertises showing "adult" films.

The sex doll prop was seen through a window. (ANI)

Melbourne, Nov 19 (ANI): English actor Daniel Craig tried his hand at playing the new videogame version of 'Quantum of Solace', and almost ended up getting his alter ego killed.

Craig, who happens to be a videogame fanatic, was very enthusiastic about the game, though its developer Garrett Young revealed that the James Bond star was nervous about how he would look in a videogame.

"But once he saw it, he was happy and much more comfortable," News.com.au quoted Young as saying.

"Then he grabbed the controller out of my hand and just started running around and playing. He is a gamer, so he picked up the controls right off the bat.

"Then he started getting killed a lot, so I told him about cover. Once he started taking cover, he was really successful," he added.

The highly interactive cover system in which players morph from first to third-person mode before taking cover behind obstacles, such as walls is one of several innovations rolled out in the Quantum of Solace game. (ANI)

London, November 19 (ANI): The Italo-German summit in Trieste saw Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi playing a practical joke on German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Media reports suggest that Berlusconi slipped away from the welcoming committee, and hid behind the lamppost.

When Angela stepped out of her official car to enter the regional council headquarters, Berlusconi jumped out at her with a cry of "Cucu".

Amused, the German leader opened her arms and replied "Silvio", reports Times Online.

This is not the first time that Berlusconi has shown unpredictable behaviour, for he raised eyebrows by describing U.S. President-elect Barack Obama as "suntanned" during his recent visit to Moscow. (ANI)
