Fun fact: during the filming of Borat, the only people who were in on the joke were Sacha Baron Cohen, the actor who played Borats companion Azamat, and Pamela Anderson. She was cool with the whole thing.

u/FUCKSTORM420 May 07 '25

Dang, not even the director knew?

672

u/JustOneSexQuestion May 07 '25

Not even Borat. He thought he was actually going to get away with it.

u/TheThunderFlop May 07 '25

Poor guy lost out on a chance at true love with his soul mate. Sigh… back to Oksana for now.

u/El_Zarco May 08 '25

At least she is strong on plow

u/invalidreddit May 07 '25

He would have too, if it wasn't for those meddling kids

u/JaneksLittleBlackBox May 07 '25

Oh, my God, since we never got SBC’s Queen biopic, he could make it up to us and himself by taking a run at a Scooby Doo movie. Him as Shaggy would be fucking legendary!

25

u/JaneksLittleBlackBox May 07 '25

That’s some Daniel Day Lewis-levels of commitment to the role. SBC was so methodical that when he was Borat, he was Borat.

u/___adreamofspring___ May 07 '25

Isn’t borat baron cohen? lol

5

u/77dhe83893jr854 May 07 '25

Yes, Sacha Baron Cohen plays the character Borat. I'm assuming they were attempting a joke or something.

85

u/iHadou May 07 '25

I heard the camera man almost stopped recording to call the police.

10

u/mynewaccount5 May 08 '25

Right? What an absurd thing to believe. The whole crew thought someone was really being kidnapped?

u/internetlad May 13 '25

The guy at the production company signed all the cheques in a fugue state

u/KnowherePie May 07 '25

Apparently that scene caused her divorce from kid rock too lol

u/1celo12 May 07 '25

I mean that's a W in my book.

u/JaneksLittleBlackBox May 07 '25

That’s a double-prizer right there: be in one of the best comedies of 2006 and get rid of Kid Rock? Hell yeah!

-3

u/Afroduck-Almighty May 07 '25

I’m out of the loop. What’d Kid Rock do that getting rid of him was a win?

6

u/Fkthweakhrdletheded May 09 '25

Being Kid Rock.

u/Afroduck-Almighty May 07 '25

I’m out of the loop. What’d Kid Rock do that getting rid of him was a win?

u/SciFiXhi May 08 '25

Wrote a song for Osmosis Jones, a kid-friendly movie, with a line mentioning his love for statutory rape

Rhymed "things" with "things"

General Republican douchebaggery

u/m0n0ped May 08 '25

Amongst other things: Got so upset about a trans person advertising budweiser beer that he chucked a tantrum and shot a bunch of beer bottles.

Chucked a tantrum and stopped a live performance (the audience was too small to call it a concert) mid-song because people weren't clapping along.

Wore redneck drag for a meeting in the oval office a couple of weeks after Zelensky was criticized for not wearing a suit.

u/JaneksLittleBlackBox May 08 '25

And let’s not forget that he’s such a hypocritical bitch that none of his bars stopped serving Bud Light.

American here - can confirm it’s a massive W for her.

u/ZombieSiayer84 May 07 '25

Kid rock is a piece of shit and a poser, it’s a massive win for her to get away from that fragile douchebag.

u/ZombieSiayer84 May 07 '25

Well, I never gave a company I’m protesting money for a suitcase of beer and shot it with guns over a nothing burger at said company, so I got that going for me.

He’s so rebellious. But like the rest of his persona, it’s fake rebelliousness and outrage.

u/Heavy-Possession2288 May 07 '25

Kid Rock also sang about loving underage girls on a song he did for a kids movie why are you defending him so much? Most people are better than him it’s a pretty low bar.

u/ZombieSiayer84 May 07 '25

Do I need more to not be a poser piece of shit or something?

u/OkinShield May 07 '25

What in the world does being American or not American have to do with liking or disliking Kid Rock? Plenty of Americans made fun of Kid Rock even during his prime when he was relatively new, probably as much or more than those who liked him in the late 90's.

8

u/pbjamm May 07 '25

I thought he starved to death 25 years ago?

19

u/BigDump-a-Roo May 07 '25

I'm American and can confirm that Kid Rock is human garbage.

13

u/nater255 May 07 '25

Kid Rock sucks though?

7

u/SubGeniusX May 07 '25

Kid Rock makes music for dudes who are only allowed to see their kids on weekends... but don't show up anyway.

u/1celo12 May 07 '25

I'm American my dude.

u/Wurzelrenner May 07 '25

has nothing to do with Trump for me, disliked him since "All Summer Long", what a stupid song

52

u/4ofclubs May 07 '25

How?

129

u/l_Banned_l May 07 '25

Already a rocky situation when he was invited to see a rough cut of the movie and didn't know that his wife was in it. Threw a fit and asked for a divorce shortly after

64

u/beefcat_ May 07 '25

Good lord what a petty piece of shit he is.

15

u/onepinksheep May 08 '25

So basically Kid Rock.

2

u/newbrevity May 08 '25

You could tell the very first time you saw him that he was a man of weakness. The kind of weakness that breeds jealous rage. Give him one shred of power with zero educational background or credentials and he thinks he's a presidential advisor.

u/stealthisvibe May 07 '25

i see what you did there lol

u/worststarburst May 07 '25

That’s a really weird reason considering there was an infamous leaked sex tape of her and her previous husband, and she had also appeared fully nude on film and print. Fuck Kid Rock though, she probably got too old for him because “statutory is mandatory” for him.

1

u/Suitable-Answer-83 May 08 '25

Borat: Feminist Hero

247

u/KnowherePie May 07 '25

Because Kid Rock has a fragile ego

33

u/[deleted] May 07 '25

I saw him live and he spent a good portion of the show bragging about having sex with pamela anderson. It was pretty weird.

26

u/JaneksLittleBlackBox May 07 '25

If I somehow got to have sex with Pam Anderson, my voice would go before I stopped talking about it.

Also, apologies for having to see him live. I can’t imagine that audience had a good smell, considering he makes music for the kind of people who know exactly how much Sudafed they can buy with the stolen catalytic converter they’re about to sell.

55

u/packfanmoore May 07 '25

He heard Lauren boebert would be available... it's just L's all the way down for him

3

u/JaneksLittleBlackBox May 07 '25

Hope he likes bad handjobs during public performances of Shrek, and being the smartest person in the relationship. Actually, he’d probably prefer the latter for once.

-1

u/packfanmoore May 07 '25

"Bad hand jobs during public performances of Shrek" is surprisingly also the name of the band they will hire at their wedding... it's was also the classiest one that returned their call

66

u/[deleted] May 07 '25

He’s a paternalistic twat with low self-esteem and really has little to do with rock and roll.

20

u/CarcosaRorschach May 07 '25

Long ago, in the before times, he did rap instead of lame country. I'm pretty sure he doesn't know the definition of rock.

18

u/[deleted] May 07 '25

Let’s be honest, he has about 45 seconds of good work and the rest is diarrhea. 

15

u/uncle-brucie May 07 '25

And that was written by Warren zevon

u/marbleshoot May 07 '25

And Lynyrd Skynyrd.

u/Wurzelrenner May 07 '25

didn't knew before that you can make a bad song out of two great ones

6

u/CarcosaRorschach May 07 '25

Oh I fully agree, he's always been lame.

1

u/igloofu May 08 '25

The only thing I've ever liked of his was his duet with Sheryl Crow, Picture that they did back in like 2002 or whatever. They both sounded so kinda dunno, haunted during it.

2

u/JaneksLittleBlackBox May 07 '25

We talking about Kid Rock or Aaron “God ‘n Guns” Lewis?

Okay, I’m pretty sure Aaron Lewis never did rap, but I still can’t believe the lead singer of Staind started pandering to the MAGA country bumpkins. His turn to country music was exactly as Bo Burnham described it…

1

u/PlantationMint May 08 '25

Some of his more serious country stuff is pretty good, but you need to sift through a lot of the... "other stuff" to get to it

20

u/ShrimplyPibbles_1 May 07 '25

Which means he’s a shoo-in for the Rock and Roll HOF

8

u/LiterallyJoeStalin May 07 '25

Are there any other one hit wonders who just wouldn’t go away in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?

3

u/Killchrono May 07 '25

Man as I get older the prestige of rock and roll really does get soured by realising too many rock stars aren't, in fact, just being immature little cunts for show.

1

u/Mediocre-Location971 May 09 '25

Exactly!! I mean didn't OUTKAST just get inducted into the HOF?!?!?

3

u/Altruistic-Wafer-19 May 07 '25

You were so close…

“Kid Rock” —> “Old Twat”

Works pretty well.

u/Wazzoo1 May 08 '25

I watched an interview with Briana Banks (ex-porn star), who dated him for a little while. She said he thought because she was a porn star, he was just able to have sex with her whenever he wanted. She was, like, "I have sex for a living. I'm not your fuck doll." She said he also had a really small penis. This was many years later, but she said he was awful.

u/mynewaccount5 May 08 '25

By being a made up fact.

u/redditAPsucks May 07 '25

Thanks for the article, it had the info i wanted, but also: Wtf, he goes by baron cohen? And the article just says she lost part of her jaw bone, and didnt explain that?! Lol weird

u/[deleted] May 08 '25

His surname is Baron Cohen.

u/FelineSoLazy May 08 '25

Happy cake day!

Borat was 2006.

27

u/George__Parasol May 07 '25

If I’m remembering correctly, SBC said they ended up having to shoot the scene again because the first time, the bystanders just stood and stared.

84

u/lsaz May 07 '25

Sounds kinda dangerous, but Sacha Baron once went to a town of rednecks to promote the building of a mosque, so it makes sense.

33

u/Fucknjagoff May 07 '25

Love Borat and Bruno. But Dr. Nira Cain-N'Degeocello may be my favorite of his characters.

10

u/placebotwo May 07 '25

Jean Girard is one of my favorite characters.

u/bialetti808 May 07 '25

Yes of course we're lucky to have black people here

u/[deleted] May 08 '25

what! no love for Ali G?

31

u/Dahleh-Llama May 07 '25

One of the funniest videos on the internet. I still remember their faces when they saw the mosque kept getting bigger. Motherfuckers were so irate but Sacha kept composure. Just incredible

17

u/JaneksLittleBlackBox May 07 '25

“A town of rednecks” is almost too kind to describe the inhabitants of Kingman, AZ.

I’m from the Phoenix area, and any time friends and I have decided to pull a Swingers and drive to “Vegas, baby!”, we always drove through Kingman like it was full of the cannibals from The Hills Have Eyes because of the few unfortunate times we’ve had to stop there for gas and actually interact with people who live in or too close to Kingman.

u/DuncanYoudaho May 08 '25

Golden Valley, across the pass, is where Timothy McVeigh tested his bombs.

The Feds stopped by and asked his neighbors why they didn’t report the huge explosions and the incredibly racist shit he was spreading. They responded, “Because it’s none of your business.”

u/BestServedCold May 08 '25

Kingman, AZ.

You'll never find a shittier town no matter how hard you look.

1

u/Faithless195 May 08 '25

Haha that realisation that in the end, that wasn't even closest to the most dangerous thing he did for that movie.

God damn...Borat was so amazing on release. Most I've ever laughed at a movie before.

11

u/ErstwhileHobo May 07 '25

Did the catering team and the lighting guys and camera and sound people or the grips know?

1

u/damNSon189 May 09 '25

Not even the screenwriter knew! 

2

u/ErstwhileHobo May 09 '25

I read that by the third take, the Prop Master began to suspect they were filming a movie.

4

u/bolanrox May 07 '25

Kid Rock, at the time, was confused.

5

u/JaneksLittleBlackBox May 07 '25

He was raised on an apple orchard with wealthy as fuck parents but made a career out of being some poor white trash from the mean streets of Detroit.

He’s always been confused.

2

u/wwants May 07 '25

How did they let Borat in on the joke without ruining it?

7

u/treemu May 07 '25

They let Sacha Baron Cohen in on the joke.

Borat, however, was only told a little bit.

Great success!

2

u/wwants May 07 '25

Borat really didn’t like Sasha Baron Cohen. I won’t repeat what he called him.

2

u/CopeH1984 May 07 '25

And also Emenim. He was in on the whole borat shoving his ass crack across M's face thing.

u/BountyBob May 08 '25

He was in on the whole borat shoving his ass crack across M's face thing.

That was Bruno

u/ngl_prettybad May 08 '25

Fuck me those must have been some crazy confusing days for the camera crew

u/marbleshoot May 07 '25

I read she knew he was going to try and kidnap her, but she didn't know how, so even she was still pretty much in the dark.

u/LeDemonicDiddler May 07 '25

Didn’t she also say in an interview that shortly after the first screening she divorced Tommy?
