But Brand tweeted on Friday, “Banned from South Africa. Here ready to go. Refused entry. Hope I can come soon,” and posted the photo at right.
He added, “Got to the airport, refused to let me board.”
A fan later cheekily pointed out that Brand has seemingly been banned from a number of locations and events, showcasing the Google auto-predictions that pop up when you type in “russell brand banned from.”

Quipped Brand in reply, “It must be because African Child. It was a terrible record.”
