Sacha Baron Cohen Finds Last People Still Unable to Recognize Him

Sacha Baron Cohen's true skill lies not in acting chops or a knack for satire, but rather for penetrating the impenetrable. This comes on the exclusive heels of EW.com's breaking news that his gay Austrian style reporter was just booted off the set of Medium, that Patricia Arquette show that should've been canceled in its first season. We, like much of the rest of the web, have been tracking, and tracking, and tracking Bruno's whereabouts as he pranks enough people to stitch together 80 minutes of footage for delicious journeys through America, all just to make heterosexual males visibly uncomfortable in the presence of a gay foreigner in a mesh T-shirt. That's also the rumored subtitle of his movie.

So today he was on the set of Medium—an extra playing a juror in a courtroom scene. He kept disrupting the take until security finally removed him. Only then did they realize who they were strong-arming. I wonder if he’s sitting there thinking to himself, “Holy shit, I did it again.” Because that’s what I’m thinking. Someone on the Medium inside loop thinks it was “amazing he was able to infiltrate the set and pull this off.” But unless Cohen had his own camera on set, he’ll have to get Paramount to hand over footage to Universal, who’s producing the Bruno film. He’d have a better chance at getting cast in a Missy Elliot video.
