Publisher's Synopsis
Sacha Noam Baron Cohen (born 13 October 1971) is an English stand-up comedian, writer, actor, and voice actor. A graduate of Cambridge University, Baron Cohen is most widely known for writing and playing four fictional characters: Ali G, Borat Sagdiyev, Bruno Gehard, and Admiral General Aladeen. In most of his routines, Baron Cohen's characters interact with unsuspecting people who do not realise they are being set up for comic situations and self-revealing ridicule. Baron Cohen was named Best Newcomer at the 1999 British Comedy Awards for The 11 O'Clock Show, and since then, his work has been further recognised with two BAFTA Awards for Da Ali G Show, several Emmy nominations, a nomination for an Academy Award for Writing Adapted Screenplay, and a Golden Globe for Best Actor for his work in the feature film Borat. After the release of Borat, Baron Cohen stated that because the public had become too familiar with the characters, he would retire Borat and Ali G. Similarly, after the release of Brno, Baron Cohen stated he would also retire the title character. At the 2012 British Comedy Awards, Baron Cohen received the Outstanding Achievement Award. He accepted the award while reprising his Ali G character. This book is your ultimate resource for Sacha Baron Cohen. Here you will find the most up-to-date information, photos, and much more.
