The forthcoming “Borat” sequel reportedly features Rudy Giuliani engaging in provocative behavior with a woman he’d been told was a reporter after Trump’s attorney got punked by Sasha Baron Cohen. The Guardian saw footage from the film and reports that Giuliani is seen reaching into his trousers and apparently touching his genitals while reclining on a bed in the presence of the actor playing Borat’s daughter, who is acting the part of a TV journalist.
Following the interview, 24-year-old Bulgarian native Maria Bakalova — acting the part of a conservative journalist — invites Giuliani to her hotel for drinks and whatnot. And of course, the room is rigged with cameras.
The outlet reports that Bakalova removes the 76-year-old former mayor’s microphone, then he can be seen lying back on the bed, fiddling with his untucked shirt and reaching into his trousers. That’s when Borat comes running into the room to say, “She’s 15. She’s too old for you.”
The Internet weighed in.

I’ve seen the Giuliani moment in Borat 2. It’s even wilder than it sounds. Beyond cringe.

If Borat was able to compromise Rudy, imagine what a trained intelligence officer could do. https://t.co/nit4eIDR3l

According to the Daily Beast, Giuliani tried to defend himself by saying he was answering questions on camera from a woman reporter when they were abruptly interrupted. “This person comes in yelling and screaming, and I thought this must be a scam or a shakedown, so I reported it to the police. He then ran away,” the former New York City mayor and current personal lawyer for President Trump said. “I only later realized it must have been Sacha Baron Cohen. I thought about all the people he previously fooled, and I felt good about myself because he didn’t get me.” Yeah, but he did get you, Rudy.
Update: Rudy responded on Twitter to say that the “video is a complete fabrication.”
(1) The Borat video is a complete fabrication. I was tucking in my shirt after taking off the recording equipment.
At no time before, during, or after the interview was I ever inappropriate. If Sacha Baron Cohen implies otherwise he is a stone-cold liar.

He’s become a parody of himself.
(3) This is an effort to blunt my relentless exposure of the criminality and depravity of Joe Biden and his entire family.
Deadline Hollywood reports CAA had a distribution screening in September where there was no mention of the scene holding any importance.
