Rudy Giuliani calls police after Sacha Baron Cohen pulls prank on interview

Giuliani went to the Mark Hotel on Tuesday for what he thought was a legitimate interview about the administration's response to COVID-19, according to Page Six.

A female interviewer, sitting in a room with professional lighting and camera equipment, asked Giuliani a couple soft questions before, according to Giuliani, "This guy comes running in, wearing a crazy, what I would say was a pink transgender outfit."

“It was a pink bikini, with lace, underneath a translucent mesh top, it looked absurd. He had the beard, bare legs, and wasn’t what I would call distractingly attractive.”

Giuliani mentioned that he didn't initially recognize Cohen, saying: "This person comes in yelling and screaming, and I thought this must be a scam or a shake-down, so I reported it to the police. He then ran away."

He continued: "I only later realized it must have been Sacha Baron Cohen. I thought about all the people he previously fooled and I felt good about myself because he didn’t get me."

The former New York City mayor said he he was "a fan of some of his movies, "Borat" in particular, because I’ve been to Kazakhstan. Giuliani proceeded to speak the following in a 'Borat' accent: "'She is my sister. She is number four prostitute in all of Kazakhstan.’ That was pretty funny.”

Cohen also crashed a conservative event in Washington donning the persona of a racist country singer, where he encouraged attendees to sing along to lyrics that included having liberals "chopped up" or having them "injected with the Wuhan flu."

The prankster took the stage in Olympia, chanting, “Obama, what we gonna do? Inject him with the Wuhan flu … WHO what we gonna do? Chop ’em up like the Saudis do.” This last being an apparent reference to Jamal Khashoggi, a murdered journalist.

There has been speculation whether this exhibitionist behavior may be a stunt for Cohen's new season of his Showtime comedy "Who Is America?"
