Best Supporting Actor/State in a Comedy


How fortunate are we to be graced, once again, with an appearance by funnyman Sacha Baron Cohen. In 2002 he lead cheers at the Alabama-Mississippi State football game. In 2005, he raced Will Ferrel to the finish line--on foot--in 'Dega. In 2006, he crapped in a bag and politely handed it to his gracious Helena hosts.

Earlier this year at the Alabama Military Academy in Anniston, he donned a cadet uniform, complete with non-issue thong before being recognized and asked to leave.

And just yesterday, according to the Birmingham News, he crashed a lodge dance at my local Vestavia Hills Civic Center. The prank involved an Argentine tango and lingering kiss...between Cohen's German alter-ego, Brüno, and an unidentified co-star. No word as to whether either stunt will make the final cut, but I'll be seeing Brüno: Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Males Visibly Uncomfortable when it comes out in July either way.
