The saga continues. A bunch of readers wrote in after I wrote a column in Saturday's GuideLive about Sacha Baron Cohen's appearance at a TV studio in Carrollton. Before the taping on May 28, audience members had no idea who it was. The idea was that his identity would remain secret during and after the taping. But a bunch of people recognized him. One woman wrote in, telling me she's part of a home-schoolers' "e group" and that one of her friends belongs to a church choir "e group." Both groups got targeted. You see, the host of the talk show was "Bruno, a gay Austrian fashion model" and the groups being targeted are, evidently, believed to be homophobic, at least by Mr. Cohen and his Hollywood production company. It's obvious, the woman told me, that based on who got the vaguely worded e-mail, asking them to join the studio audience for a new "talk show," that they were targeting conservative Christian groups in North Texas. Can't wait to see the movie. Photo: Sacha Baron Cohen |
