Sacha Baron Cohen’s alter ego Bruno was arrested in Milan while filming a segment for his upcoming flick Bruno: Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Male. Reports say that for the second time during Milan Fashion Week, Sacha and crew managed to get security passes and get into restricted areas to film.
Watch and laugh as Bruno works it on the catwalk during the Agata Luiz della Prada show.
British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen reportedly caused a security panic at Milan’s prestigious fashion week, when he stormed onto the catwalk Thursday, interrupting designer Agatha Ruiz de la Prada’s show. Cohen jumped on stage dressed up as his Austrian fashionista, Bruno, the subject of his latest mockumentary film. He then made his way down the catwalk, past the other models, dressed in a black cloak, and a bizarre bundle of clothing. And after he refused to leave, police had to be called in. Cohen and his team had used fake passes to fool security guards into letting them into a backstage area.
So why the nutty behavior now? Cohen is in Milan to work on his new film called, Bruno: Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Male due out in May. The movie being made in the same documentary style as his flick from 2006, Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, so you will likely catch footage of this ambush in the new movie.
Yesterday, Cohen, caused havoc again after bursting into changing rooms as scantily clad models screamed and security guards dived on him and several others with him and bundled them away.
Here’s video footage screened on Italian TV showing Cohen dressed as his creation Bruno storming the catwalk and getting arrested.
WENN is reporting that security at a Wichita, Kansas airport was put on “red alert” when a “European man” was “[stripped] down to tight shorts and [danced] in the lobby of Wichita Airport.”
Baron Cohen is filming a movie as his flaming Austrian TV personality Bruno, and the Wichita locals didn’t take kindly to his half-dressed invasion of the airport. They also had no idea who he is. I found the original story about this on Kansas.com, and there’s no mention of Baron Cohen or Bruno, so it’s safe to say that more people are fooled by this character than his better-known Kazakh incarnation, Borat:
Officials at the Wichita Mid-Continent Airport are rewriting their policy on commercial filming inside the terminal after a film crew stripped down and started dancing at the airport.
The crew had permission from the airport to film a scene on March 18 based on a “European man” visiting America.
But security workers became concerned when they began dancing in tight short shorts, kissing and fighting in the lobby.
Security couldn’t find anything illegal about the performance, but asked the crew to leave.
Brad Christopher, assistant director of airport operations, says it won’t be as easy to film at the airport in the future.

I love how this is reported completely straight-faced, and they have no idea that it was comic Baron Cohen, calling him a “European man.”
At least one celebrity was said to be fooled by Bruno for the upcoming film. Mike Walker reports in the current issue of the National Enquirer that Ben Affleck called up comedian Sarah Silverman and told her that he did an interview with an “openly gay European fashion journalist” who asked him inappropriate questions like “how do you like (n-words)?” Sarah clued him in that it was Sacha Baron Cohen in his Bruno character. I’m not so quick to believe that Affleck wasn’t in on it, but maybe we’ll see how good an actor he is once the movie comes out.
Here’s a clip of Bruno interviewing some Christian guys, thanks to Hollywood.tv for linking it. It really is religion day today.
This week’s In Touch reports that Johnny Depp gave Sacha Baron Cohen a pregnancy book as a present while the two were in NY in early December promoting their new soon-to-be-blockbuster film Sweeney Todd. Baron Cohen and his fiance Isla Fischer’s baby daughter Olive was already a month old at that point so the book wasn’t really practical. Depp seems to have realized this, since the book was titled “The Girlfriend’s Guide to Pregnancy.”
“The Girlfriend’s Guide to Pregnancy” was first published in 1995, and Depp’s girlfriend Vanessa Paradis had her first child, Lily-Rose, in 1999, making it likely that the book was a re-gift.
Baron Cohen plays a flaming hairdresser in dark musical Sweeney Todd, which is out in US theaters this Friday. The costume designer for the film reports that his manhood was enhanced by quilted material after a lot of trial and error to get the most natural look.
Johnny Depp recently revealed part of the reason why he’s so secretive about his privacy. He said that screen legend Marlon Brando called him up after he gushed about his children in an interview and told him that his private life was not public entertainment. In Johnny Depp’s case, he’s all the quirky entertainment we need, and that’s sure to be confirmed yet again once Sweeney Todd is out.
Johnny Depp and Sacha Baron Cohen are shown at the Sweeney Todd premiere on 12/3/07.

When you think of “Borat” actor Sacha Baron Cohen, you don’t initially think “doting father.” However, the British comedian and his fiancé Isla Fisher looked elated as they showed off their daughter Olive yesterday.
The Ali G actor and the Wedding Crashers babe were leaving the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills when the waiting paparazzi snagged some adorable shots.
Check it - Borat has a kid! Where's the moustache? Man, remember how pregnant Isla Fisher was? She looked like Violet Beauregarde minus the delicious blueberry coloring. Here's Sacha Baron Cohen and his fiancee Isla with their new baby Olive at the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills yesterday. Borat's a tall, hairy drink of water, eh?
