After getting over the shock of the stunt that was pulled between Eminem and Sacha Baron Cohen (As Bruno) went down, the viewers wondered if it actually, did indeed happen. Well wonder no more,A writer for the MTV Movie Awards confessed that we all knew for sure. On his blog, head writer Scott Aukerman wrote that the incident was staged. “They rehearsed it at dress (rehearsal) and yes, it went as far as it did on the live show.”
Eminem wasn’t Baron Cohen’s first choice for the joke. That honor went to Paris Hilton. Still, Eminem did a great job of selling the stunt considering he “may not have been briefed on just how naked Baron Cohen’s flying ‘Bruno’ would be when he agreed.” If Em’s entire agenda for this was to get people talking, mission accomplished.
