7. Da Ali G Show
Sacha Baron Cohen, otherwise known as “the Borat guy” and “that lucky bastard who married Isla Fisher” (the crazy redhead from Wedding Crashers), created Da Ali G Show, in which he played three “journalists”. Ali G, Borat and Bruno were those three, and they were considered highly offensive to black people, Jewish people and homosexuals respectively. Each of these characters were however, as loved as they were hated, as three movies resulted from the show’s popularity.
Arguably the most offensive of this ridiculous trio was Borat, who was a Kazakh reporter who routinely talked about killing Jews to benefit his country. The humor was lost on those who either took the show literally or failed to realize the Cohen himself is a Jew.
