Introducing Bruno, aka Borat, Ali-G, Sasha Boran Cohen I think?

Who is this guy, what is this guy? Can you believe this guy is the same guy that played Borat? Did he use Extreme Makeover?

Sasha is at it again with his latest character "Bruno", probably his most controversial of all the personalities he plays. Bruno isn't a new character, if you've seen the Ali-G show you'll remember him going to US Football games and being booed by the crowd. Or hanging out with teen age boys on the beach and getting them to flex their muscles and say they love gays. The Bruno character has always had a way of making southern conservatives extremely uncomfortable and it looks like he's done it again. If you're over 18 (I think) you can watch the Red Band trailer below.



Funny yes, bizarre yes, controversial, we'll wait and see. Sasha's Borat character was created to see the US through the looking glass and unnerve conservative morals, ideals and beliefs. It worked with various results and I always felt that he forced the issues rather than let them play out. By looking at the trailer it looks like he's doing it again. He's on the Jerry Springer show, going to a swingers party and sitting around a camp fire with a bunch of hunters talking about Sex and the City. In all of these cases he's clearly trying to make the people he meets feel very uncomfortable, so why is he doing it? Is this another take on how southern americans are so adverse to sexuality? Or is this just another ha ha poke at the christian extremists, perhaps both. Either way it looks good and I'm sure it will get teens to talk about the movie visa vee, sexuality.
