He's been a wildly successful character in England with his "Ali G" character. It's played here on HBO to fairly small audiences for a few years. His main persona's are Borat, Ali G (the hip British rap musician/interviewer who asks outrageous question of unsuspecting celebrities) and Bruno, the ove- the-top gay fashion diva.The guy is genuinely hillarious in all these roles and I would happily go to see a full length movie on both of his other two characters.

Thanks for the fill-in and forgive my ignorance. I was still astounded by the incredibly well-orchestrated promotion campaign surrounding this film, and whether some of the "news" spots that seemed to pop up in advance of it were not really "news."By the way, was he the guy who "interviews" Shaquile O'Neil in that NBA commercial a year or two ago? -- at least, I think it was an NBA commercial.
