Borat is dead

Sacha Baron Cohen has finally and openly declared the deaths of both Borat and Ali G., citing over-exposure for both characters. In a rare "as himself" interview, Sacha admitted that he can no longer hide behind the characters who made him famous, so for him, it's time to move on. The good news, some might say great news, is that the 3rd character in the trifecta is about to get his stage time. From the UK's Telegraph:

"He is finishing work on his next project, which features Bruno, the gay, Austrian fashion reporter who also made his first appearance with Ali G, although Baron Cohen is unwilling to discuss it."

as great as all of the things he dide [i still quote borat and make fun of the wrestler guys on the beach], it is incredibly satisfying that he admitted reality. much more respectful, with hope of what will come next.
