Former New York City mayor and prominent longtime Trump ally Rudy Giuliani was caught engaging in what The Guardian describes as an “indiscreet encounter” with a young actress during the production of the new movie Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, which is a satire produced by longtime comedian Sacha Baron Cohen. In the incident, Giuliani was apparently led to believe that the young actress — 24-year-old Maria Bakalova — was actually a reporter with a far-right news organization. In the “interview” that preceded their trip back to a hotel room, Giuliani makes outrageous claims, like the insistence that Trump’s response to the Coronavirus saved one million American lives.

As for once Giuliani and Bakalova — who he did not know as Bakalova at the time — went back to a hotel room, The Guardian reports the following:

‘In the film, released on Friday, the former New York mayor and current personal attorney to Donald Trump is seen reaching into his trousers and apparently touching his genitals while reclining on a bed in the presence of the actor playing Borat’s daughter, who is posing as a TV journalist. Following an obsequious interview for a fake conservative news programme, the pair retreat at her suggestion for a drink to the bedroom of a hotel suite, which is rigged with concealed cameras. After she removes his microphone, Giuliani, 76, can be seen lying back on the bed, fiddling with his untucked shirt and reaching into his trousers.’

Although the appearance of the scene was reported as such by The Guardian, Giuliani claims that he was merely tucking in his shirt at the moment in question, although he was — for some reason — lying all the way down on the bed when he says that he did so. Who tucks in their shirts while lying flat on a bed? The “indiscreet encounter” was interrupted when Sacha Baron Cohen — in character as Borat — rushed into the room and exclaimed, “She’s 15. She’s too old for you.”

Apparently, Giuliani actually called the police after the incident, to whom he reported “the intrusion of an unusually-dressed man,” as The Guardian puts it. Giuliani told the New York Post this past summer that he “only later realized it must have been Sacha Baron Cohen” who ran into the room, and he says that he “thought about all the people he previously fooled and I felt good about myself because he didn’t get me.” The problem is that the Cohen prank seems to have been successful. Giuliani was fooled by the fake interview — and caught on camera engaging in this newly reported behavior.

Giuliani has been in the news recently for his efforts to drum up attention for a dubious recent New York Post story which claims to reveal contents from Hunter Biden’s laptop. Whether or not the contents are legitimate remains unclear.
