27/09/05 Borat's the man for the MTV Europe music awards.

Boratonline understands that our very own Borat Sagdiyev will be hosting the MTV Europe music awards in Lisbon on 3 November 2005. The ceremony will include performances from Foo Fighters, Robbie Williams, Coldplay, The Black Eyed Peas and Green Day.

Ali G of course hosted this same event in Frankfurt in 2001.

If Ali's lines are anything to go by then Borat fans will be looking forward to the event:

• "The show will have some of the greatest musical artists in the whole
  world ... and also Craig David. "

• "Me personally is doing this because MTV has promised that me will get
  to bone either Janet Jackson, Destiny's Child or Dido.  Obviously Dido is
  the last resort."

• "They say that good fings come in small boxes.  Kylie, I is got a very good
  fing, and you've got ... nuff said!"

• Introducing Dido "Give it up for Dildo!  Strap it on girl!"

• "Due to recent world events, Backstreet Boys, 'N Sync and Christina Aguilera
  will not be able to make it, so every cloud does have a silver lining."

• "Atomic Kitten are proof that you can get to the top by boning thousands of
  record executives."

• "Don't worry Craig (David), there's a lot of slappers here tonight -
  mentioning no names, Atomic Kitten."

• "MTV is the best because for 20 years their quality showing of videos has
  made them the only channel to turn to if you want to knock one out before
  midday.  Me personally recommend doing it with the sound turned down, cos that rubbish music can really put you off."

• "The awards will be happening in Frankfurt, which is of course the town,
  which gave its name to the hamburger.  Not only that but Ronald McDonald
  was actually born there.  The show will be going out to one billion viewers,
  which is literally thousands of people.  One billion is a very big number:
  it is more than all the stars in the sky, all the sand in the sea, and all
  the pubes on the Spice Girls - especially since Baby has had the 'zzzz.
  Me know that for a fact.  Aaaiii!  Me know that."

22/08/05 Borat attempts to play rugby with Pamela Anderson

Just a quiet day in LA.

Pamela Anderson was hosting a wedding ceremony for her beloved dog.

Borat turns up on the beach in a leather hat, jacket and pair of hot pants. Of course he's sailing in to the shore on an inflatable turtle playing a keyboard.

Next thing we know he's rugby tackled her and then got half drowned by her security people.

What next? Maybe getting Courtney Love pregnant? Or is that too ridiculous for a British comedian?

1. Land ahoy!

2. Right, where's the party?

3. David Hasslehoff never did this!

4. Did you get that on camera chaps?

5. Don't beat me up too badly fellas.

19/07/05 Borat continues to cause trouble in the USA...

A news story broke earlier this week about Borat causing trouble in Mississippi's Channel 16 TV station. He somehow managed to get interviewed live and then after initially behaving started to stir things up. When asked to leave he stumbled across a live weather report in the studio... twice.

Borat then hit the national headlines of most UK tabloids this morning with a story about how he was kicked out of some American aristocat's house after being invited in for a dinner party.

The fact that this has made all the UK papers suggests that Sacha's publicist has done a bit of a press release to get a bit of PR for the approaching Borat Movie.

14/05/05 Fans spot Borat filming in New York

As the Borat Movie continues to be filmed, he continues to be caught out by fans who recognise him.

To the right is a picture snapped by Borat fan Josh from New York. Josh speaks to www.giantmag.com -

"Last night I was on the subway when Borat got on with some crew members who quickly tried to get out of the way. He stood up against a pole, pulled out a Hustler* and started reading while the guy to my right videotaped through an opening in his jacket. No one else really noticed what was going on, but I did manage to take a photo with my phone".

A big thank you to Austin for emailing in with this story!

The picture to the left is from Charles at www.jadetree.com -

"A friend was just on her way to eat or something and
hopped on the subway in NYC and saw Borat. So she started freaking out and
waited like 3 stops before the producer of the show let her get a photo with
him. I'm so jealous that I wasn't there to meet Borat".

Meanwhile, 20th Century Fox have bought the domain name www.boratmovie.com - it is likely that this will be the official site for the film.

Other reports include that Trey Parker from South Park fame is working alongside Sacha and Dan Mazer writing the script. IMDB.com is reporting that Daniel Castro will be alongside Borat playing Locust and that Jimmy Miller is producing the film.

It all sounds like sexy time is ahead for Borat fans!

As always, anyone with any insider information or any fans who spot anything - please email me - [email protected]

21/04/05 Fun with the Borat Soundboards

Fan of the site Noo Noo has used one of the Borat Soundboards to have a conversation with a lady ringing to ask who he'd vote for in the UK general election.

Obviously instead of talking to the lady on the phone he simply clicked the for the appropriate Borat catch phrase.

Woman - "If there was a general election tomorrow who would you vote for?"

Borat - "Do you know Corky Bucek?" (five times)

Of course he recorded the full conversation on MP3 and you can download it the excellent site below for free:

A number of people have emailed me in asking where they can get the Borat Soundboards - well basically they seem to appear now and again on different sites and then get taken down. Doing a Google Search for "Borat Soundboard" isn't a bad idea.

However, at the moment we know of three:

14/01/05 May George W. Bush drink the blood of every man, woman and child in Iraq

After the controversy had just about died down about Borat singing about throwing Jews down wells our Kazakhstani friend has hit the headlines worldwide on CBS, Fox News, MSN, Radio 1, The Sun, Reuters, Sky News etc. etc. after some naughty antics at a US Rodeo.

At the rodeo in Roanoke, Va. USA, Borat was given permission to sing the national anthem. He started well introducing himself and saying that he supported the war against terrorism. He then was reported as saying,

"I hope you kill every man, woman and child in Iraq, down to the lizards"

and then,

"May George W. Bush drink the blood of every man, woman and child in Iraq"

Borat then got the words of the national anthem wrong finishing with...

"your home in a grave".

The organisers of the event realised that the crowd were angry and they rushed him away fearing violence.

"Had we not gotten them out of there, there would have been a riot," rodeo producer Bobby Rowe told the Roanoke Times. "I told him you done the wrong thing at the wrong place!".

Boratonline currently believes that Borat was filming for either a third US series of Da Ali G Show or for a documentary style film featuring Borat. If anyone can give any further information on this please email [email protected]
