Sacha Baron Cohen Appears On David Letterman Without Gayface

Sorry in advance for how quiet this is. And for how it cuts out at the end. When I am the President of YouTube (a subsidiary of Entertainment), mistakes like this will be high treason.

A rare look at the very niiiiice man behind the moustache/bangs/gray suit/hot pants. Furry bull suits with felt dicks are great, but sometimes it's nice when someone can just sit down in a chair like a human being and talk about stuff regular. (Meanwhile, Vulture has a great rundown of all the funny but very repetitiiiive Bruno press junket jokes.)

I watched this last night. Dave shows a clip of him talking to the terrorist, and Bruno insults King Osama and is ordered to leave. Hilarity for the whole family. But for reals, I forgot what a babe Sacha Baron Cohen is, and I was glad this wasn't an in-character interview I had to cringe through. And Joel McHale was the next guest, so If y'all haven't seen it already, I recommend the rest of the episode!

Oddly, his Arkansas security guard accent stinks.

It was really really nice to see him talk like a normal person. I always knew he was a pretty smart guy, but i was getting pretty sick of "Bruno" interviews where not a single thing of any actual relevance was said.
