Once on stage and in disguise, Baron Cohen performed a song with a band and had members of the crowd repeat words back to him. The lyrics mentioned injecting Obama, Clinton and Fauci with the “Wuhan flu” and chopping up members of the World Health Organization “like the Saudis do.”
“Obama, what we gonna do? Inject him with the Wuhan flu. Hillary Clinton, what we gonna do? Lock her up like we used to do. Fauci don’t know his head from his ass. He must be smoking grass. I ain’t lying, it ain’t no jokes. Corona is a liberal hoax. Dr. Fauci, what we gonna do? Inject him with the Wuhan flu. WHO, what we gonna do? Chop ’em up like the Saudis do,” Baron Cohen sang.
this guy is annoying.
How is it a prank to get them to do what they paid money and showed up to do - whether Sacha showed up or not? It’s not a prank. Sacha just participated. And ironic bigots are tripping over themselves to shove their head in the same trough that the MAGAts gladly ate from.
Stop giving him the benefit of the doubt with your social copy. He got on stage in front of already emboldened bigots in a time of conservative militias and lynchings, and he gave them a song. There’s no prank. It’s not funny. Variety is embarrassing itself.
😂
So a Saturday for them?
Nothing will ever top his getting rednecks in a country bar to sing 'Throw the Jew down the well' (highly advise googling if you have no idea wtf I'm talking about). But this was a good one one too for sure.
I pranked my wife and her friends to sing along to the UCLA fight song when they thought it was the USC fight song. This means NOTHING.
We’re they really being pranked?
That one is a head shaker....Always has been
boring
What’s the prank? That they’re openly and blatantly racist? The prank is that Sacha’s participation is being lauded, and it was pulled on the media.
SachaBaronCohen ICON!!❤️
I have always thought Sacha Baron Cohen was an a*****e and now I'm certain.
What, precisely, was 'racist' about the lyrics Sacha Baron Cohen and his handful of plants in the crowd sang?
Why was the point of this? This makes BOTH sides look bad. What was he trying to prove? And eye for an eye makes one blind.
I am sure the irony was lost on them
MarceloAdnet Fica aí a ideia
I love him.
Thanks Variety.
It's amazing. Racism is so rare in the United States that people like Sacha Baron Cohen have to go out and invent it. SundayMorning sundayvibes
Could you also confirm the sinking of the Titanic, or?
It’s only a prank if they’re embarrassed.
lmfao
I mean, it was pretty obvious from his voice but... thanks for the Variety stamp of confirmation
Did they need to be pranked or would they have gladly sang racist songs anyway?
Wow, what subversive and undermining behavior on his part. It’s almost as if he’s trying to further divide our country, to which he has no national loyalty ((being a British citizen of course)). Very sneaky and crafty tactics he’s using. Seems to be second nature to him.
So funny. He is a legend! What was the racist part though?
The only effort he put in was deciding what to wear.
Sacha Baron Cohen is so freakin smart and talented. Now if he had only gotten to play Freddie Mercury as the gods intended. THAT would've been a great movie.
An anonymous benefactor paid to hold the rally according to other news outlets. Was it Sasha really trying to spread hate while pretending to prank them?
This group is a heck of a lot beyond “conservative”. Change this headline,
Da Ali G predicted all of this
Pranked? They more than likely were already ready to sing racist songs lol
Looking back through past SBC clips and stuff and found this:
pranking them to sing anti-racist lyrics would have actually been better
How nice, is Baron a racist agitator, yes he is.
Legendary
He's a genius satirist.
Is it really a prank, or was he just warming up the crowd? It's not a prank if you get them to do what they wanted to do and they're not embarrassed by it.
😂🤘
He could go home to Britain and take care of those racists.
Headline written another way, Sacha Baron Cohen sings racist song at conservative rally and group follows along.
r0anea probably his easiest, most low effort prank to date though
As long as its about himself and his people not us. We r tired.
I don’t hear color
Old story from his movie. try again,
Idt they needed tricked...
I’m hoping this means we’ll get a Who Is America? season 2 or another SBC project soon
That’s like saying MLB pranks people into singing Take Me Out to the Ball Game.
For me, I don't think he really contributes much to any conversation, as talented as he is, it always feels beneath him.
Love Sasha!
No offense to the talented Cohen, but they probably would have been singing racist lyrics without him.
I’m sure it wasn’t difficult
But he didn’t
I love this guy.
F him
