Leave it to Russell Brand to offer up his honest—and humorous—thoughts about stuff.

While appearing on Ellen DeGeneres' show (airing Wednesday), Katy Perry's ex was asked to share his feelings on some popular people and things. And, not surprisingly, his answers didn't disappoint.

"What do you think of the Twilight movies?" inquired DeGeneres.

"I call them the Twiglit movies and figure they're about very small branches," replied Brand matter-of-factly.

When asked about Honey Boo Boo after being shown a picture of the reality TV star, the British comic exclaimed, "Oh, that's a child! I just thought it was a position."

As for soccer stud David Beckham?

"I would eat fried eggs off his stomach and floss my teeth while I ate them on his abdominal hair," Brand insisted. "Look how gorgeous he is! I'm a heterosexual...but there's a point where you figure, 'Why not?'"

During the show, Brand also brought up the fact that DeGeneres' show is now in its 10th season.

"I made, as a tribute to your decade of wonder, a film," he remarked. "They said bring some sort of tribute to Ellen. I thought, 'She would like nothing more than a cat video.'"

Sure enough, Brand proceeded to share a clip of him interacting with his feline friend, Morrissey.

Mind you, the kitty's no Becks, but he's still pretty darn cute nonetheless.
