Rep: Macaulay Culkin is in good health
SYDNEY, June 29 (UPI) -- Comedy movie star Sasha Baron Cohen, in character as gay Austrian fashionista Bruno, said Monday that Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd is "uber-cute."
Before attending the Australian premiere of his new movie "Bruno," the British comedian held forth in character at a Sydney news conference where he told The Australian, "I've just had breakfast in bed with Kevin Rudd. That guy is like uber-cute. I thought Obama was the hottest guy in the world until I met Kevin. Amazing."
Asked to explain further, "Bruno" reportedly said, "I never schtup and tell. All I would say is for a moment, well, for about seven minutes, Austria and Australia came together as 'Austrialasia' und it was just something very magnificent."
The Australian said Cohen wore a skimpy schoolboy costume to the news conference, perhaps as an homage to similar gear favored by Angus Young, front man for the Australian rock band AC/DC. But "Bruno" reportedly feigned ignorance, said, "I want to be the gay stereotype, I want to be the gay role model -- accept it."
