Who is Sacha Baron Cohen aka Borat/Ali G/Bruno? Is the comedian closer to his Ali G character, or is he more like Borat from Kazakhstan? Or maybe, Bruno, his latest character, is he real man behind the man…well, you get our thrust.
Ask Men has discovered five things we bet you don’t know about Sacha Baron Cohen.
1- Sacha Baron Cohen used to be an actual male model
Behind the Borat mustache, Ali G do-rag and nude ass of Bruno, is an actual good-looking man. Before becoming a comedian, Cohen worked as a male fashion model and he appeared in a number of fashion magazines. His slim, 6-foot-3 figure does make him perfect for that world. Reportedly, the stint inspired Bruno. Just how much nude model ass did he see before he cracked into the character? We wonder if we'd really like to know the answer to that.

Bruno is the top film in America, but don't count on the Sacha Baron Cohen comedy to tear up the box office in the Ukraine -- the culture ministry for the ex-Soviet state announced Wednesday it has "decided to ban all showings of this film on Ukrainian territory."
The ministry said the film presented "artistically unjustified exhibition of sexual organs and sexual relations, homosexual acts in a blatantly graphic form, obscene language, sadism [and] anti-social behavior" in coming to its decision; nine of 14 panel members approved a complete ban on the film.

Bruno is ballsy, hysterical and totally offensive (in the good way). But be forewarned: anyone who isn’t completely comfortable with sexuality and/or homosexuality is in for a shock. Forget Brokeback Mountain — this is the swishiest mainstream movie in history.
Straight guys who consider themselves liberal/homo-friendly were visibly uncomfortable during Bruno, which follows Sasha Baron Cohen’s fictional gay, Austrian fashionista character to America as he tries anything and everything to become famous.

Given the time difference in taping, Jimmy Kimmel was the first late night chat show host to tackle Michael Jackson--choosing to make jokes rather than eulogize.

Furthermore, Kimmel pointed out that the late Jackson's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was just outside his set on Hollywood Blvd, but unreachable at the time because of the red carpet premiere of Sacha Baron Cohen's new film Bruno.
