On Oct. 23, Amazon Prime released the sequel to the hilarious one-of-a-kind movie Borat. The first film was a spoof-documentary comedy starring a fictional character, Borat, who has a lot of personality and interviews real people who don’t know he’s in character.
The sequel, titled Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, takes on United States politics and as the trailer was released before the film’s debut, we see a lot going on. One of the first scenes to be teased happened to be Donald Trump’s lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, in a compromising position. However, that’s not all that happened, and people are curious: Did Borat crash CPAC for real? Here’s what we know.
Did Borat crash CPAC for the new movie?
Earlier in the year, there were reports that someone had crashed the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) which took place on Feb. 27, 2020, held in National Harbor, Md. At that event, Vice President Mike Pence was speaking. Several tweets went out saying that one of the attendees had dressed up as President Donald Trump and started to make a scene.Â
“This Donald Trump impersonator was ejected from #CPAC2020 for heckling Vice President Pence,” one person tweeted along with a photo showing the impersonator.
“A protester dressed like President Trump was just escorted out of Pence’s speech at CPAC,” someone else tweeted, again sharing a photo. “Not clear what he was saying.”
Turns out, now that Borat Subsequent Moviefilm is available in its entirety, that impersonator who was “hecking” the vice president was Sacha Baron Cohen in character as Borat — and that scene made it into the movie.
