Brüno Still Has Some Harsh Words For Eminem
Published by Adam Rosenberg on Friday, July 10, 2009 at 2:30 pm.
One of the shining moments at this year’s MTV Movie Awards came when the half-dressed gay Austrian fashion reporter Brüno dropped into the crowd after a technical mishap… and right onto Eminem’s head. It was a little worse than that actually: the fashionista hit Em’s lap in an awkward position, with his legs wrapped around the rapper’s head. Check it here:
Eminem’s reaction was… well… let’s just say he was a bit miffed. He later revealed however that the whole thing was a big joke: “Sacha [Baron Cohen, a.k.a. Brüno] called me when we were in Europe, and he had an idea to do something outrageous at the Movie Awards. I’m a big fan of his work, so I agreed to get involved with the gag,” the rapper said. “I’m thrilled that we pulled this off better than we rehearsed it. It had so many people going ‘nuts,’ so to speak. Everyone was blowing me up about it.”
Joke or not, Brüno still harbors some anger at Eminem’s reaction.
Speaking with MTV Movies Editor Josh Horowitz at a surprise appearance in Brooklyn earlier this week, Brüno shared some choice words about his co-conspirator’s reaction. “Well, Eminem behaved like a total bi—,” he said. “I mean, he pretended like he’d never 69′d a guy before.”
“The reality was, when I was down there with my [butt] in his face and my head between his thighs, I felt something poking into my cheek, and I felt why he was actually called Slim Shady. I felt that Slim was getting a little fat.”
…dude just doesn’t let up, does he? Eminem proved what a good sport he is at the Movie Awards, but I wonder if he’ll change his tune after these latest comments from Brüno. Posing for a video op is one thing, but now that crazy Austrian is questioning the superstar rapper’s manhood. Maybe Em will turn his frown upside down, and use this as an opportunity to put out a new hit single lambasting Brüno’s nasty comments.
“Brüno” hits theaters today; make sure you hang onto your ticket stubs as they could soon become souvenirs after the reporter suddenly perishes in a tragic “accident.”
