Shortly after Borat Subsquent Moviefilm’s Golden Globes victory tonight in the category of Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy, Sacha Baron Cohen returned to the spotlight to claim a second statuette.
“Hold on, Donald Trump is contesting the result,” Baron Cohen joked, after winning the award for Actor in a Musical or Comedy. “He’s claiming that a lot of dead people voted, which is a very rude thing to say about the HFPA.”
While saluting all of the artists who risked their lives to help make this film—which was shot amidst the Covid-19 pandemic—the Borat sequel’s writer, producer and star gave special thanks to one person, in particular, who he kept anonymous. “Most thanks of all to my bodyguard, who stopped me from getting shot twice,” he said. “You know who you are, and you know I’m not allowed to say your name. But thank you.
