Sacha Baron Cohen, known for his popular characters Borat and Ali G, has been nominated three times for a Golden Globe. In one response, the actor jokingly refers to Rudy Giuliani. Baron Cohen embarrassed ex-President Donald Trump’s lawyer in Borat Subsequent Movie Film, the mock documentary released last year.
As an actor, Sacha Baron Cohen has a chance to win Golden Globes in the categories “ Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy ” for “ Borat Subsequent Movie Film ” and “ Best Actor in a Second role ” for “ The Trial of the Chicago Seven ”. As a producer, he more competes for an award in the category “Best Picture – Musical or Comedy” for “Borat Subsequent Movie Film”.
Last year, the British comedian once again took on the role of his character Borat, a Kazakh journalist who travels across the United States. In the sequel to “Borat” of 2006, Republican leader Rudy Giuliani played an unwanted supporting role. In a high profile scene, Giuliani is interviewed by Borat’s self-styled “daughter”. He behaves with flirtation. The most sensational passage shows Giuliani lying on the bed, his hand in his pants, near Borat’s daughter.
Of the scene in question, Baron Cohen later said: “If the president’s lawyer thinks that what he did there was decent behavior, then I care what he does with it. other women journalists in hotel rooms. ” According to Giuliani himself, however, there was nothing wrong: the politician said in a series of tweets that he was putting his shirt back in his pants.
This is Rudy Giuliani, the personal lawyer for the President of the United States.

“Am honored”
In response to his three nominations, Baron Cohen couldn’t help but name Giuliani. “Thanks to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (the organization behind the Golden Globes) for the ridiculous number of nominations,” Cohen said. “We (himself and his crew, note) are honored – and in case we don’t win, I have already hired Rudy Giuliani to challenge the results.”
Wawaweewah! I am shocked and honored to be nominated for 3 Golden Globes, and congratulations to the incredible @ MariaBakalova96 as well!
