Oscar Sabotage!

Academy Awards’ security staff are scrambling to prepare for a possible red carpet disruption by Sasha Baron Cohen. The British actor is well known for pranking unsuspecting groups in films such as “Borat” and “Bruno”. In addition, his comic antics have disrupted Hollywood gatherings in the past to promote his films. Organizers are concerned he made show up to the festivities dressed as General Aladeen, the title character from his soon to be released picture “The Dictator”.

However, a publicist for Cohen has told Dogs & Jeans that it is unlikely he will sabotage the evening masquerading as the flamboyant Aladeen and if he appears in disguise it will be something more subtle. We have been supplied with a list of other possible Sasha Baron Cohen costumes:

• Chewbacca the Wookie
• Jaime Edmondson
• President Obama
• The late Rip Taylor
• Flo, the Progressive.com spokeswoman
• Don Quixote
• The Elephant Man
• Peter Griffin’s Millionaire Space Cowboy
• Iron Man
• Outrageous hockey commentator Don Cherry
• Whitney Houston
