Russell Brand is set to make his first public appearance since announcing his divorce from Katy Perry at The Secret Policeman's Ball in New York City this March.


The British comedian, who filed for divorced from the Teenage Dream singer in December last year, is to add some comedic value at the event, to be held at Radio City Music Hall on March 4.
It will be the 36-year-old's first official public appearance since revealing his new single status - and also marks his return to the US.
Earlier this month it was reported he has just splashed out on a £1.2million luxury Hollywood Hills bachelor pad, complete with swimming pools, stunning views and Jacuzzis in every bathroom.



The house is in the same neighbourhood as his and Katy's marital home.
At the start of the month he had a removal van take his possessions to his new place to avoid any awkward meetings.
Though the pair may be divorcing, this extravagant purchase - as well as choosing US soil to mark his return - makes it clear Russell isn't about to give up his Los Angeles lifestyle, despite leaving his American wife.


He arrived in LA for the first time since their separation nearly two weeks ago for a make-or-break meeting with Katy, but when she was seen jetting out of the sunshine state on her way to Bangkok, speculation arose they didn't get time to talk.
Brand has put on a brave face since the split, having been seen numerous times shopping in London.


And last week, he was seen sporting a 'Sex, Drugs & Rock n Roll' t-shirt - ironic since he's been tee-total for ten years.
Katy, on the other hand, has gone down a different route to cope with their split, throwing herself into work.
As well as filming a commercial for Adidas, she's also returned to her California Dreams tour in Asia after her Christmas break.
Katy further moved to show she's over Russell by unfollowing him on her Twitter page, while he still remains a follower of hers.
And last week, in what appears to be an attempt to paint the message loud and clear to Brand, she puckered up to a male fan on stage in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Telling the audience she was 'feeling really sexy tonight' and on the look out for a new man, she selected a fella from the crowd before pulling him on stage and planting a kiss on his cheek.
Perhaps Russell will take a leaf out of her book and pucker up to a member of the audience at the Secret Policeman's Ball?




This won't be Brand's first time at the event, which is being held in New York City for the first time this year, as he also appeared at the last bash when it was held in London in 2008.
Other acts set to join Russell on stage and help entertain an American audience at the British-based music and comedy festival include Coldplay, John Stewart, Stephen Colbert and Mumford & Sons.
