Was Eminem really angry at Sacha Baron Cohen's rear in his face?
Look what Jason Segel's full frontal nude scene in "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" hath wrought.
Andy Samberg started the bare crotch gag during the pretaped intro to the MTV Movie Awards last night, when he was beamed into Justin Timberlake's limo and got out by crawling all over him.
But Eminem didn't seem too pleased when it was his turn to receive some bare buttocks in the face.
Sacha Baron Cohen, dressed as gay Austrian fashion guru Brüno, fluttered down from the ceiling in white angel feathers and landed with his head in Slim Shady's lap and his thonged bare rear right in the rapper's face.
Em yelled: Are you serious? Are you ... serious?" A suspended Cohen struggled to get up -- without much success -- as Em's entourage began pushing and shoving the suspended Brüno off their charge. Then Eminem and his entourage appeared to storm angrily out of the Gibson Amphitheatre.
Zac Efron then took to the stage to accept the award that Brüno had blurted out but few people had actually heard, saying, "That was really weird."
What do you think? Obviously, the prank was planned, but did Eminem know about it? Or was he really surprised and really angry?
But if he was POed, this would not be the first time.
Remember his 2002 run-in with Triumph the Insult Dog?


Obviously staged, and bad acting. No punches were thrown. Who watches this crap?
I think it was very disrespectful and bad taste, if it were me I would have taken a big bite and laughed as the fairy flew away
ithink it was real....he was obviously pissed...anytime u got a mans *** in your face abd his face in your crotch, u'd be pissed..on national movie award television...everybody seen him eat ***. check out my music, myspace.com/whynotwayne ill take his seat next year...
it was a great marketing ploy to promote Em's new Album....
good job!
I hope this doesn't give Em a relapse.
A better question: Do we really care? People are losing jobs faster than em's record sales and LA times dispersal of pandoring ignorant headlines put together. Id like to offer the stunt as a metaphor...we the people portrayed by Em, forced to eat the crap spewed from America's journalistic pipeline.
I don't know if it was an East coast West coast difference, but - being on the East coast, the censors @ MTV screwed up, and you clearly heard Eminem say "Are you Motherf*cking serious"? This adds slight credibility to everyone but Eminem being in on it, but either way, yeah, it was all staged. It was just too perfect.
Least funniest moment of the night though. I was surprised at the show (I absolutely loathe MTV, and only watch Rob's Fantasy Factory). The "Doubt" video game for Genesis was excellent.
I don't think this was the first time Eminem has had a man's buttocks in his face...but it was the first time in public.
MTV planned it, but Em did not know about the crotchless butt sandwich in his face. That was priceless and well deserved by the crap rapper.
Respect, Eminem. You and your brethren never had it for anyone else and now you know what it feels like to have unwanted *** in your face.
Somehow, I doubt this will encourage any of you clowns to pull your pants up.
