Russell Brand is no fan of his ex-wife Katy Perry‘s budding relationship with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau … and mainly Justin himself, calling him a “globalist stooge.”

The British actor-comedian hit the stage at a Turning Point USA event in Phoenix, Arizona Thursday night and at one point, Russell offered his 2 cents about Katy and Justin’s new romance.

He told the packed crowd … “Look, Katy Perry, I was married to her. I love her still, and I’m glad that her mom’s in the room to hear me say this, but look. I was okay with Orlando Bloom, but Justin Trudeau? Come on, man! Don’t put me in a category with that guy! That globalist stooge.”

It’s unclear if Katy’s mom was at the TPUSA event, BTW.

Russell and Katy tied the knot in 2010 but got divorced in 2012. Katy then moved on to Bloom, with the two first meeting at a 2016 Golden Globes after-party. The pop star and Hollywood actor were engaged in 2019, but things went downhill and they called off their nuptials in 2025. Now, Katy’s been trotting around with her new lover Justin.

Meanwhile, Russell has gone political, shifting his views from left to right and sharing his thoughts about the world on his multiple podcasts.

The “Ghost Adventures” episode featuring Weezer bassist Scott Shriner’s ex-wife, Jillian, is about to air … and TMZ’s got the chilling first look, giving a pretty unsettling peek into her headspace before that wild run-in with cops earlier this year.

Have a look — Zak Bagans says things took a seriously dark turn after Jillian gifted him serial killer Samuel Little‘s ashes, along with hand-drawn portraits of his victims that he’d left her in his will after she once wrote a book about him.

Zak says Samuel’s remains were placed inside his Vegas Haunted Museum, alongside Charles Manson’s, and it wasn’t long before strange activity started popping off … triggering a pretty intense reaction from Jillian.

Jillian says those ashes were literally in her home, and every time she walked into the room, she felt herself folding, sinking deeper into depression.

Remember … production sources told TMZ Jillian filmed the episode in November last year … and just months later, in April, she allegedly fired a gun at officers searching for a suspect near her Los Angeles home in an unrelated incident.

Jillian was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder of a peace officer, but prosecutors later downgraded the charges to assault and negligent discharge of a firearm. She avoided jail time — with a judge granting her diversion due to mental health issues.

We broke the story that Jillian filed to divorce Scott earlier this month after being married for 20 years.

Nancy Grace says the double homicides of Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner are a textbook example of a case that calls for the death penalty … and that could be bad news for alleged murderer Nick Reiner.

Nancy tells TMZ … this case is the classic example of when capital punishment should be applied, but that doesn’t mean it’s going to happen.

Los Angeles District Attorney Nathan Hochman mentioned the death penalty in a recent press conference, so it’s being talked about among prosecutors … but as Nancy explains, a final decision on capital punishment goes way beyond the D.A. office.

Nick is charged with murdering his parents at their Brentwood home … and he’s being held without bail and is on suicide watch as he awaits his January arraignment. He’s hired famed defense attorney Alan Jackson.
