yea and im sure it will be one of his other personas, personally i like ali-g better than borat. borat is too extreme and ali-g is funny without trying to be funny

He's had a lot more than 15 minutes. I've been loving Ali-G and Borat for years.

Great interview. Thanks.

I cannot believe the Kazakhs are upset because of Borat. It seemed to me that the movie mocked Americans moreso than it did Kazakhs.

I agree, it is so ridiculous a country is upset at a comedian for a fake character that makes fun of a small country no one gives a rat's ass about. I can't imagine anyone actually thinking what Borat says is real. But then again the Kazakhs believe it enough to take action.

Meh, now that I think about it, they deserve it.
