Sasha Baron Cohen's stunt on (with?) Eminem

[mego73]

From the MTV Awards last night. Almost makes me sorry I missed it. I don't know if Eminem was in on it but he did look pretty disgusted with Cohen's bottom in his face.

Staged or not...that was funny, lol.

[Riffster]

cohens humor does nothing for me. Each character he has is the exact same. dislike M&M just as much.

Yeah, I seen the clip of that on the news yesterday. Eminem was pretty P.O.d to say the very least. He and his enter age got up and left rather abruptly. I can't say that I would have blamed him for being peaced off about it. I would not want some one else s junk landing on me either. Especially out in public and on live TV for all to see. I am sure that this will come back to haunt him for many years to come.

That was just bizarre.

[Mawni]

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. I'm pretty sure most of it was planned and then Sasha took it over the top.

[garagesale]

Hm. I think I'd sue. It's almost sexual battery. Borat and Ali G were a little bit funny, but this new character doesn't seem all that funny. M&M is a big dunce, though. He's the new Vanilla Ice.

I think it was in bad taste and whether planned or not...promotes that
kinda stuff UNPLANNED as actual humor.

Shocking as a prank to the unsuspecting? Maybe. But "funny"? Not to me.

I never was into that whole "Hey, it's funny to rub one's private areas
in someone else's face" not even when I was a kid. I'd watch someone
do that to someone else, and not laugh, just think how obnoxious it was.

There were dozens of news blurbs yesterday confirming it was all staged.. here's a couple quick hits..
