A scene featuring La Toya Jackson was cut from Bruno just a few hours before the premiere in Hollywood yesterday. From The Sun:
The scene was axed just a few minutes before last night's premiere of the movie in LA after producers heard of MICHAEL JACKSON's death. In it the gay Austrian fashion reporter pesters LaToya repeatedly about Michael, as he uses a Mexican immigrant for a chair.After reading this story, there was a brief moment where I thought to myself: "Wow, Sascha Baron Cohen does have a heart." But then I read it again and noticed something -- HE WAS USING A MEXICAN IMMIGRANT AS A CHAIR! If you think they took this scene out of the movie for something altruistic like "avoiding jokes at the expense of the late Mr. Jackson," you're kidding yourself. They took it out so they wouldn't have the expense of using Union labor on the sequel.
The studio confirmed the cut to the Wall Street Journal, with a source saying: "Even in the often-shocking comedy, jokes at the expense of the late Mr Jackson would have been in poor taste." The studio added that they did not expect the scene to be restored for the film's worldwide release on July 10.
la toya is sexy
i want to fuck her all night long
and then i want to lick her tits
and carress her warm sweet pussy
Funny. I have the same sentiment tatooed on my arm.
I'm so surprised that the studio that green-lighted Borat knew what "poor taste" meant.
Minus the beat everyone over the head with sexual OVERtones in an attempt to shock and cause discomfort,,,,Did no one else see Zoolander? Remember? The comedy about over the top male models? Cohen's a copy cat.
What's the big deal? The Mexican immigrant joke is that, a JOKE. Why does everyone have to take everything so out of context and seriously? It was very respectful what they did for mr Jackson.
But the slut appeared in Playboy!!!
