Borat’s Baby Boom
Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
Sacha Baron Cohen and his Australian fiancée, Isla Fisher, gave birth to a baby girl October 19. The couple has been tight-lipped about the baby’s name, which was still not revealed at press time.
Baron Cohen, 36, gained international fame for his 2006 movie, “Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan,” and Fisher, 31, is best known for her role in the 2005 film “Wedding Crashers.” The name of Baron Cohen’s next baby, however, has been announced: “Bruno,” a film about a flamboyant Austrian fashionista who travels to America, is due for delivery in 2008.
