"A bewildered audience watched as the comedian, dressed as his latest creation Bruno, lunged around the German capital in a pink fluffy bodysuit, complete with fake nipples and a penis."

"To top it off, Baron Cohen did a mockingly provocative dance in front of the Brandemburg Gate, one of the main symbols of Berlin and Germany. Entitled "United Colours of Brünotton" the stunt included a team of young dancers from different ethnic backgrounds. All were dressed in similarly outlandish bodysuits accessorised with genitalia."

Sascha Baron Cohen is awesome though, messed up comic genius :D Reminds me a bit of this guy (the need to play a role even when out in public, bit conflicted character, not comfortable being himself):

Borat deserved all the praise it got, but what's annoying is that when Jews make fun of Jews, everyone can enjoy. If a non-Jew makes fun of a Jew, it's a neverending lawsuit.

In Belgium the Jewish society first prevented a TV channel to air a show about Hitler's favorite dish (sure it was lame, but offensive? come on), then they got mad about something I don't even know about and last but not least, they were extremely mad when a comedian made fun of them saying that Jews always got mad.

that's the same for most ethinc groups/races
Jews take it to another level though. I mean, from muslims I receive hate and I don't think that's right either, but hate is where it stops. Jews would go after me :D. I'd be branded a Jewhater, dragged through the mud and put in jail.

Indeed it is, but they take it to another level (Jimmy Carter, Noam Chomsky, both are called antisemities by media outlets for criticisng Israel), they have like 3000 lawyers and enough commercial clout to put pressure and zip anyone up (plus the sensitive angle of WW2 to boot).

I don't mind the fact that they are somewhat on the defensive (after all the Holocaust was pretty bad :D.), but sometimes it's a bit too much. And it annoys me that a judge in Belgium is likely to favour Jews, but unlikely to favour muslims. There cannot be a difference in treatment IMO.

What BD did was pretty smart coming from him TBH. He was an utter retard, but he did see the advantages of being a Jew. It's even better when you're not really a Jew, but say you are. Have to give him credit for that.

I have come across mythomaniacs, who fake their nationality, ethnicity, or whatever else for pathetic reasons, but what BD pulled was really sad.


Ontopic: I retraite, Sascha is satirical genius :cool:

I know, that makes it way more funny and bizzare. American media are the most pro-Israel/jew around (jews in Israel are more objective then them :p) , and they call a jew an antisemitie (and I thought a nice docile old man like Jimmy Carter was getting overboard) because of his anti oppression views. Its really astounding.

I know, and really not too accostumed to Bruno, except few ok sketches, but yeah, Sascha with Ali G and Borat is pure genius, hehe.

He said he will make new characters, after Bruno vid, so we will see more.

    Borat's gross revenue was $261,572,744, so, he's not going to make more with Brüno but I'm looking forward to it.
