Sacha Baron Cohen Premieres “Bruno” in France

Ever since he hit the feature film world with his 2006 opus “Borat,” Sacha Baron Cohen has been a major comedic force in American pop culture.  And last night he gave the folks in France a peek at his latest project “Bruno.”

The “Ali G” funnyman showed up at the Paris premiere looking every bit as flamboyant as his character in the film, posing with several scantily clad friends.

Gay cowboys displaying physical affection, and a fictitious reporter/hack from Kazakhstan are just a few to name who have suffered human rights abuses in 2006.  “Brokeback Mountain” and “Borat” may be the most notorious two, but there are many other within the entertainment industry that have grown accustomed to having some of the content that is produced banned or restricted by foreign governments.

First Came Ali G, then Borat.. is Bruno Next?

With all of the Borat headlines these days, I thought it might be fun to have a look back at Sacha Baron Cohen’s first character, Ali G.  Remember Ali G?

Here’s a funny video of Ali G. with David and Victoria Beckham for Comic Relief. It’s nice to see Posh smiling.

What’s next? Well there’s supposedly a bidding war going on over the next character, Bruno.. the gay fashionista from Austria. You can see a clip of him below during a visit to Daytona Beach, Florida for spring break. Let’s just say that when they find out he’s a reporter for a gay Austrian TV show that they all get a little pi$$ed off.
