Sacha Baron Cohen may be an Oscar nominee, but that doesn’t mean he’s embracing the experience as enthusiastically as, say, a vigorous man-on-man hotel room wrestling match. Cohen—conominated for Best Adapted Screenplay for his blockbuster comedy—has turned down an invite to present during the awards show. His rep isn’t commenting, but Cohen isn’t comfortable appearing
before such a large group out of character. Perhaps the Academy should have invited Borat instead?

How sad. It is one thing to get into a role, but that is ridiculous.
Does anyone else watch Boston Legal? There is a character on the show who dresses and acts like other people to hide his shyness. But yesterday he had the strength to present to the court as himself. Maybe Sacha needs to watch this show to get over his fears?
