Back in 1979, Andy Kaufman was performing at Carnegie Hall and he brought out Eleanor Cody Gould, the last surviving member of the dancing cowgirls from the movie The Forest Rangers. Well the brilliant comedian had the elderly actress do the dance she did in the movie, faster and faster, until she died right there on the stage of a heart attack.
Fast forward to this weekend, a comedian that wishes he was as much of a genius as the Taxi star, tried a similar stunt. Sacha Baron Cohen received the Charlie Chaplin Award For Excellence In Comedy at BAFTA LA and they brought only the oldest surviving actress to have worked with the Tramp. While imitating the walk that Chaplin had with his cane, Borat knocked Grace Collington off the stage and appeared to have killed her.
Just like Kaufman, it was just a big hoax and both actresses survived the bit. But unlike Kauffman it wasn’t as good.
So my advice to Cohen, stick to your own schtick.
In case you don’t remember Kaufman’s famous bit, you can watch it below:

Sacha Baron Cohen is in Cannes to promote his latest unfunny movie The Dictator and it doesn’t look like it will be smooth sailing for him. He took George Clooney’s ex Elisabetta Canalis on a boat ride, and it ended it as good for her as it did when she broke up with the Oscar winner. Instead of leaving the way she came on the boat, the Dancing with the Stars “star” was thrown overboard in a black plastic bag after laughing at his tiny pen!s. I mean you can’t blame her, it just seems that men with small dicks make up for it by being big ones. And after seeing Borat and Bruno, I think his little Dictator is the only funny thing about him.
Before Sacha Baron Cohen was torturing unsuspecting people in his movies like Borat, he was torturing people knowingly on Pump TV. I totally didn’t recognize the 24 year old actor in that 1995 game show.
The trailer for The Dictator is out, and I am hoping the film makes like Saddam Hussein, Kadafi and Osama bin Laden and dies a slow painful death. Maybe I am still not over that dick twirling scene in Bruno, but I seriously wish Sacha Baron Cohen would stop making unfunny and hate filled movies.
Dang what is happening to me, I used to like movies like that, but he destroyed that for me. Dang you Borat, Bruno and The DickHater.

Did Sacha Baron Cohen finally get a job fitting of his movies like Bruno and Borat? You know working with trash. Sadly nope it is just him taking out the garbage for his latest trashy film The Dictator or as I like to call it The DicKtator.
Seriously am I the only who is still emotionally scarred from Bruno? I still have terrifying flashbacks from that scene where the d!ck goes around and around.
