Paris: ‘Eminem wasn’t in on it’
|
Was he in on it? Was he genuinely angry? We’re talking about Eminem’s run-in with master of mischief Sacha Baron Cohen at the MTV Movie Awards, of course.
In case you missed it, Eminem was filmed storming out amid a flurry of swear words after SBC, as new character Brüno, attempted to “fly” over the audience but was instead lowered bum-wards towards the rapper’s flustered face.
Now Paris Hilton has weighed in, saying she thinks Eminem was not in on the joke. "I don't think he knew, because I talked to someone who was running the show before and he said a big surprise was gonna happen and the person didn't know it was gonna happen,” she said, showing an impressive disregard for full stops.
She added: “I think anyone would be mad if something was, like, in your face like that... It was very odd."
Odd it may have been, Paris, but it looks like your theory is wrong. Why? Because MTV’s head writer, Scott Aukerman, has blogged saying it was all set up.
“Yes, the Brüno/Eminem incident was staged,” he wrote. “That’s all anyone wants to talk about, so let’s get it out of the way. They rehearsed it at dress and yes, it went as far as it did on the live show then.”
That’s that cleared up, then. Anyone else feel slightly disappointed?
