Borat gets beaten up

[thxleo]

Did anyone else hear about Sacha "Borat" Cohen getting punched repeatedly by some dude in NYC Saturday night? He was trying to be funny with the guy and he didn't appreciate it, so he started kicking his ass. I don't who this guy is, but he is my new hero now.

ah he'd has his arse kicked a fair few times. you not into borat then?

Yeah I heard about this a couple of days ago... Apparently it went something like this....In his Borat persona he asked some dude something to the extent of "Can I buy your clothes so that I can have sex with them"....and apparently the guy immediately started wailing on Borat without any opportunity for further explanation.... But then again I am reporting this like 5th hand on the grape vine....so I dont know how much of the story if any of it is true or what details that I have heard have been embellished if any of them... Its not that Im too lazy to look for links reguarding it....its just that I dont care enough to know wether its true or not...lol...its not like Im going to talk about it in day to day conversation.... But if someone does bother to look it up...I might casually skim the article to see how much of the story is valid...if any of it is....

Good job too. I hope the next one is armed with a machete! thats taking it way far over into the "nod your head say 'yeaaaah...' and start backing away" area of conversation.

Sacha Baron Cohen is funny. Hihi.

The Link Apparently Hugh Laurie (House) saved his ass! Borat is the funniest movie I have ever seen, but it needs to stay there, in the cinema. If some guy did that to me, I would probably be freeked out too. Don't think I would punch, I am not violent at all, but I would defiitely be freaked!

Good job too. I hope the next one is armed with a machete! Oh come on! Hmmm... Seems a sad reflection when someone gets punched in the face for saying something odd...

Good job too. I hope the next one is armed with a machete! Why? Would you wish death upon Borat? Are you jealous that he is richer or funnier than you. I can't understand comments like that. Are you serious or joking? Surely you do not want him dead for real, huh????

[Danny]

the way some people on this forum talk about firearms you never can tell sometimes

Oh come on! Hmmm... Seems a sad reflection when someone gets punched in the face for saying something odd... Bad mood combined with bad timing can result in a black eye. The "artist" should certainly know the risk of messing with strangers. I'm sure he is ok.

im not surprised this sort of thing happend. the reactions and threats he got in his movie and his TV show as Borat, Ali G and Bruno i doubt he has never been hit whilst filming. he is a legend and Borat is a brillaint characture and the film is excellent!

[HLS]

It does not suprise me. Not everyone knows who he is. I di dnot know he existed till the movie came out. But still that was rather extreme, to beat up someone like that for something I do not see worth going to jail for. He is annoying

I consider Cohen to be nothing more than a poor man's Andy Kaufman.

I consider Cohen to be nothing more than a poor man's Andy Kaufman. That's a damn good comparison right there!! Although I have always considered Kaufmann a "poor man's" comic as well. Borat / Foreign Man, very similar. I had not thought of it that way. Both are/were incredibally talented comedians.
