Borat thong shocks Cannes beach
By Times Online and agencies
Borat has been unleashing his own brand of trouble at the Cannes Film Festival - by turning up in this fetching number.
The spoof TV personality was in town to grab attention for his forthcoming film, Borat, and for some onlookers it was all too much.
Wisely, despite being in Cannes, Sacha Baron Cohen's fiancee, ex Home And Away star Isla Fisher, 30, didn't join her boyfriend on the beach to see him show off his pasty physique.
Borat ran about on the sand in his extra-long turquoise thong, posing next to one bewildered topless woman, and falling over another sun worshipper.
His movie which comes out in November sees the reporter despatched to the US to report on the country, but becomes more interested in locating and marrying Pamela Anderson.
London-born Cohen, 34, who now lives in the US, hit the big time with his Ali G character, which went from a TV series to mega-million pounds grossing film.
But authorities in Kazakhstan have been angered by the portrayal of a boorish, sexist and racist reporter Kazak reporter - and it's a fair bet that he won't be invited back to Cannes either.
