Meet the Real Sacha Baron Cohen
From The Onion's Tolerability Index:
But ugh. Letterman, Conan, Leno, Regis. The shtick gets old.
Anyway, I was reading Ann Althouse (so you don't have to) and noticed this: From NPR's Fresh Air, an interview with Sacha Baron Cohen.
That's right, not in character. Maybe I could ask him for my ten bucks back.
In-character interviews.I largely was immune to a large portion of October's Borat media onslaught (not that my precious Times or Economist emerged unscathed).
Is it admirable that Sacha Baron Cohen refuses to break character, or that World War Z author Max Brooks pretends that zombies are real? Yes. Is it funny? Usually. Is it also annoying to never get real answers? Definitely.
But ugh. Letterman, Conan, Leno, Regis. The shtick gets old.

He also did a real interview with Rolling Stone a few issues back. I caught the last 1/2 of the fresh air interview...it was alright, but Teri didn't ask very good questions.
Oh hi Nathan, this is Liz from high school and I read your blog.

I think that Sacha is a really great artist. Also thanks for your amazing articles that make my days so much nicer.
I love Sacha Baron Cohen so much and i think that no one should write bad stuff about him or his family.
