Borat Interview Axed - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

A bungled TV interview with Sacha Baron Cohen's character Borat Sagdiyev was cut short after the funnyman's obscene antics went too far. Scottish anchor Carla Romano was interviewing the comedian's character, a seedy Kazakhstani journalist, when he grabbed her and pulled her into his lap - forcing producers of the British breakfast show to axe the remainder of their racy conversation.

Romano says, "The interview was so rude - it was unadulterated filth. I was trying to keep a straight face and play it straight. He was in character. He got a little bit too frisky and managed to grab me and I ended up on the man's lap. I wasn't particularly flattered but he has the strength of an ox and there was no point in trying to resist him."

Sacha's still doing Borat? for some reason I thought he was retiring the character after the movie came out because the character is too recognizable now to get away with the antics he did when people thought he was some strange Russian guy

Bruno is my most anticipated movie for 2008, I can't wait to see what characters he has up his sleeve after that
