Derren Brown

Derren Brown
Derren Victor Brown

Born: February 27th 1971

Occupation: Psychological illusionist, Magician, Writer, Artist.

Derren Brown is a British Illusionist. Though his performances of mind-reading and other feats of mentalism may appear to be the result of psychic or paranormal practices, he claims no such abilities and frequently denounces those who do. Brown states at the beginning of his Trick of the Mind programmes that he achieves his results using a combination of "magic, suggestion, psychology, misdirection and showmanship". Using his knowledge and skill, he appears to be able to predict and influence people's thoughts with subtle suggestion, manipulate the decision making process and read the subtle physical and psychological signs or body language that indicate what a person is thinking.

He has won several awards for his sell out Tours; Enigma, Something Wicked This Way Comes and An Evening Of Wonders. Derren Brown has been stated as "The King Of Illusionist" or "The Scariest Man In Britiain".

When Derren's not reading minds, he enjoys painting, collecting Taxidermy and going to museums. Also In an interview with the Radio Times in 2011 Brown talked more about his sexuality, stating that he is blissfully happy in a relationship. He said, "I spent a lot of time thinking about me and working on what I wanted to be before I came into a relationship. In some ways, it’s bad because you come into relationship quite late without a lot of experience and you have a lot to learn. But that can also be exciting. Certainly, it’s lovely to have somebody love you and it’s lovely to love someone else."
