Bruno Convinces Dumb Americans That He Is Fierce; Smart Americans File for Immigration Papers

Apr 07, 2008 @ 10:39am

Sasha and Isla Well, now it seems that Sasha Pivovarova isn't the only Sasha in the fashion world.


This weekend, Variety ran a small but smirky story about Sacha Baron Cohen, the artist formerly known as Borat (and also Ali G, yo!), whose latest prank is playing Bruno, a flamboyantly gay fashion reporter from an unknown chiffon wonderland.

According to the Hollywood trade paper, several odd incidents involving a foreign fashion writer have been written up in local crime logs and also reported by regional Associated Press bureaus.

Looks like he's got everyone fooled, though it's not like he's made a trip to Fashion Week.

Meanwhile, girls around the country are hoping Borat's wife, Isla Fisher, is part of this whole practical joke, and that's why she's wearing the stupidest outfit ever for her next movie, Shopaholic.

Sadly, it doesn't seem to be a prank.

In the UK we have a show 'Ali G in da USA' which has had borat and bruno on for years, and bruno is actually really really funny. He does good fashion bits but this clip is my absolute favourite:

I'm sort of worried for Sacha. There are some folks out there who do not like the gays, and they are going to let him know it. That's why I stay in Los Angeles!

The "unknown chiffon wonderland" in question is Austria. Not that it matters.

And I'm pretty sure the reason Isla's wearing that eyesore is because the Shopaholic costuming staff told her to. Criticizing her for that would be like knocking America Ferrera for something Ugly Betty wore.

Bruno is far from new. If you know who Ali G is, you should know who Bruno is. How come your guest commenting is so weird. You are using Movable Type, yes..?
