Cohen Ejected During 'Bruno' Filming

Posted on: Saturday, 4 October 2008, 12:00 CDT

Actor-comedian Sacha Baron Cohen was ejected from a fashion show in Paris where he apparently was filming his new film, "Bruno," onlookers say.

The Daily Telegraph said Saturday that while attempting to film a scene for his new documentary-style comedy, the "Borat" star was escorted from the event by a security guard.

The incident came as Cohen climbed up on a catwalk at designer Jean-Charles de Castelbajac's fashion show and tried to pass several models a note, the British newspaper reported.

The involvement of show security during the French event marks the second time the comedian has been escorted from a 2008 fashion show.

Cohen was forced out of Milan Fashion Week by security after attempting to walk down the event's main runway, the newspaper said.

The actor has also disrupted two fashion events in Milan in the persona of his fictional fashion reporter, Bruno. The full name for Cohen's upcoming film is "Bruno: Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Male."
