Good morning everyone! How was your weekend? Relaxing, I trust?
Great. Now that we’ve got those questions out of the way, let’s focus on what everyone’s talking about: Sacha Baron Cohen’s newly shaved sinewy ass n’ gams all up in Eminem’s face at last night’s 2009 MTV Movie Awards, or as we will from now on refer to it, “Taintgate ‘09″.
If you missed the highlight of last night’s show, we’ve got video of it after the jump. But here’s how it went down (literally): Sacha was rigged up to the ceiling as his gay German alter ego, Bruno. Dressed in assless white underwear and angel wings the likes of which Gizzy B. could only dream about, Bruno began to descend downwards toward the stage, until his wing snagged on some equipment, sending him facedown into Eminem’s lap, where the notoriously homophobic rapper was faced with his worst nightmare: Balls.
Now the real question that’s setting the ‘net ablaze is whether or not the entire thing was staged, or, as they say, “Fake?” Clearly, SBC/Bruno planned to land in Eminem’s lap, that goes without saying. But was Eminem privy to the information that he would be getting a faceful of taint during the 2 hour dick-joke marathon? Today, Eminem’s camp is saying that the rapper was aware of the bit beforehand. In the industry, we call that “saving face” — one assumes, from a stranger’s ass crack. But we ask you: Is this the face of a man who is in on the joke?
Let’s take a closer look:
WE SAY:
No f*cking way. The only thing Eminem has a sense of humor about is locking up some dead B in his trunk while high fiving his daughter in the passenger seat. And fearless Sacha Baron Cohen realized that if he’s gonna be sticking his taint in anyone’s face, it may as well be Eminem’s. Secretly, Eminem should be sending SBC a bouquet of flowers and cab fare home, since had he not have nearly gotten a mouthful of D, most of us probably wouldn’t even have remembered the guy being there. Face it, Eminem: Balls got you into the headlines!
Here is video of the incident. And now we open the forum to you: Real or Fake? Right or Wrong? Whose side are you on? Highlight of the show? Zachary Quinto’s reaction?
We’ll end on this: Zac Efron’s adorable reaction to the entire thing convinced us that 1. He’s probs not “G” and 2. He’s actually kind of cute. Dear God, what is happening?
